Dell XPS L502X :: Push Power Fan Runs Only / No Boot Up

Feb 15, 2013

So I've been having some trouble for a while with this thing, when it goes into standby or is starting up often it will do this thing where no lights come on at all, including the power button, all I hear is the fan whirl at top speed. That's it.

Sometimes if I let it sit for a day and try it again, it boots no problem. Sometimes I have to remove the battery, press Fn for a while, and then unplug power and it will boot. Sometimes removing the Flee power by holding down the power button after everything, ac adapter and battery, are removed. But this time nothing is working.

This thing is not even two years old, and I am getting further and further discouraged by the Dell brand. I have always had great sucess with my work computer's being Dell so thought I would go that route for my personal. But alas I've read numerous things with this type of laptop having fan/video issues though nothing sounds like my problem.

All it does is spin it's fan when the power button is pressed. It got into this state when the screen was closed and it was forced into standby. It would not come out of standby, and would not shutdown by holding the power button. Had to removed battery and ac to get it to shut down. It has yet to come back.

Dell XPS L502X :: Refuses To Turn On (No Power)

Nov 6, 2014

My laptop (XPS L502X) doesn't turn on anymore.

I used to run it on the AC adapter anyway since my battery malfunctioned long time back.It was working fine until one day out of nowhere it refused to start up.Then after a day I tried again and it did turn on. Used it for a few hours and then shut it down. And again when I tried to start it, it didn't. Also, I once closed the lid when it was on and it lost the power as opposed to shutting down. What could be the problem?

Dell XPS 15 L502X :: On Boot Up Message Appears No Supported Webcam Connected

Jul 11, 2011

Okay, so all was working fine until today, my webcam has stopped working, When i boot Dell Webcam Central i get a message at the bottom stating "No supported webcam connected".

Video chats on MSN and facebook do not work, it's like the webcam no longer exists.

I think it was caused by some other webcam software, which i've since uninstalled.

I've tried reinstalling the "Quanta H.264 Integrate Webcam Rev: A00" driver from the resource disk - it did not work.

I've tried to use system restore to restore to a time i KNOW the webcam was working, it did not work.

I was trying to find the executable to reinstall Webcam Central to see if that had any effect, Went to the "Download Factory Installed Software (My Dell Downloads)" section of the website, and i get this message:

 Register Your System

Please proceed to register your system by clicking "Register New System". Registration will allow us to display the software entitled for download. You will be automatically registered after your click "allow" on the service tag scanning utility. 

I tick the box and click Register System - Nothing happens. It just stays on the same page. I thought this was because i was in Firefox so i tried IE... same problem. Except this time IE has an error on page.

So... i tried emailing dell support... yet ANOTHER error:

Error determining system information. Please try again later.

I try to use the live chat... guess what...! for contacting Dell Chat. We are sorry to inform you that the Chat support is no more available for the product selected.

Dell XPS L502x :: Laptop Won't Boot / Fan Turns On / Spinning Continuously And Emitting Cold Wind

Sep 17, 2014

So I broke my laptop (xps l502x) while traveling. The hinges were broken so I couldn't open or close the lid. Dell has stopped supporting this model so I had to get my own parts and replace it.

After replacing, I realized that the screen turns on but is white and the motherboard beeps 8 times continually. I realized that was an issue with the lcd connector. I tried to fix the connection. Now the laptop turned on, booted. But I couldn't see anything on the screen. The screen was lit but displayed nothing, everything was black. Then I removed the lcd connector and put it back again. This time the laptop doesn't even turn on but fan turns on with a loud spinning sound and emits cold air continuously.

Dell :: Precision M6400 Screen Color As Blue Push/tint

Dec 15, 2008

17" UltraSharp™ WXGA+ (1440x900) LCD Display
NVIDIA Quadro FX 2700M, 512MB Discrete
Windows XP Pro

I got my Dell M6400 in about 10 days ago and immediately noticed a bluish/purplish tint in the grays. I compared it to my other two laptops and several desktops and it is definitely off. I connected my desktop monitor to the video out on the M6400 and it looks like it is suppose to.

After trying about everything possible, I contacted support and they immediately sent someone out to replace the LCD. The tech noticed it as well and agreed that it was not (or at least should not) be normal. I have never seen a screen do this before.

At any rate... Dell is sending me a new machine, but I am worried that this might be something that is inherent with this video card and LG screen combination.

I simply cannot imagine this being inherent and Dell allowing laptops to go out with the problem. I can't even imagine how they could have tested the screen and not noticed the problem.

Dell :: 9300 No Boot After Power Plug Swap

May 14, 2009

It is now charging and all but when I try and boot all that happens is the the Caps Lock, Num Lock, and Scroll Lock lights turn on for about a second or 2 then they turn off. Also the "charging" light extinguishes when the others light. I get no beeps, fans or anything.

Now my buddy, said that he did a similar replacement on his daughters laptop and that "the board needed reprogrammed afterwords"?? I'm not sure what he means by this .....

Dell XPS M1710 :: Fails To Power On - Not Even Begin To Boot

Mar 13, 2013

My xps fails to power on, here's a quick history of the laptop, couple of months ago i decided to try fix my dc jack issue, it would only charge holding cable a certain way, replaced the jack but my soldering wasnt good enough so bought a replacement MB and installed.

this lasted around 2 weeks, laptop shut down after battery had ran down even though connected to ac, looked at transformer on lead and noticed power light was not on, bought replacement charger and connected immediatley light on lead started flashing indicating a short on the mb (i think), tried 2 different chargers same result

bought another mb that was fully tested before shipping, installed, when connecting ac the battery flashes orange 3 times then green and continues this cycle, from what i read think this is only to say the battery is bad.

however the laptop doesnt power up tried it with without battery and did the stat drain technique of holding power button for 60 secs etc.

Basically when switching on the power on light comes on for maybe 3-5 secs and goes off again without any fans etc even begining to boot, if i hold the fn key and power it lights the 3 leds on the left, 9, numlock and i forget the symbol on the other led...

could it be the cpu? though it sounds as if the laptiop isnt even getting to stage of checking for all hardware?

Dell Inspiron 15 :: Will Not Boot Up - Power Supply Light Blinks On And Off

Feb 5, 2013

My Dell Inspiron 15 will not boot up. Started randomly shutting down over a week period. Would also display a plaid screen which would require a hard shut down by me.  I was trying to run Dell diagnostics on it and noted that the video card failed, but it could not complete the diagnostic without shutting down.  Now the power supply light blinks on and off in a 10 second interval.  It acts like it has no power, but I know the battery was charged.

Dell :: E1505 Won't Boot, No Post, 3 Indicator Lights + Power Blinking...

Mar 10, 2010

The laptop wouldn't boot. I took the keyboard out to see if I could swab-dry any water, but couldn't really find any in there.

I lightly sprayed around with compressed air and left the laptop open with the keyboard out to try and let it dry out for a few hours, but no dice...still wouldn't boot.

I thought maybe via cell phone logic, it might work again after 24 hours or so. It's been almost three days now and it still won't boot, so I'm pretty sure I fried something. Here's the error code it's giving me .....

Dell Latitude E5430 :: Will Boot Only Some Of The Time When Power Button Is Pressed

Jan 26, 2015

I have an E5430 that when the power button is pressed will not post every time. It is random. I get the power light only. Holding the power button down until it clicks off and pressing it again on the sixth or 19th time it will finally light off and post and head into boot. I have run the full diagnostics and no problems are found. The diagnostic finds no problems so I am wondering if this is a power button problem or something not tied to the MB. The same thing occurs with different batteries and power adapters.

Dell :: Fan Runs Constantly On XPS 14z

Mar 14, 2013

The fan on my laptop runs constantly. The noise is very annoying. I have been having this problem for 6months plus. In reading previous posts, upgrading teh BIOS seemed to resolve the problem for a while, but it is happening again now. The fan runs from the second I turn the computer on.  I am running the A02 BIOS. I just ran diagnostics and the fan test passed - speeds were 4500, 4500, 4000. current CPU temps ranged from 68-71. What else can I do?

Dell Latitude E6530 :: Blank Screen At Power On After Switching BIOS To UEFI Boot

Aug 7, 2013

I'm trying to install Ubuntu on an e6530. I changed a BIOS boot setting from Legacy to UEFI. Now the laptop doesn't even show me a BIOS screen at startup. The screen is backlit, so power is on, but shows nothing. The drive light flickers a few times, but no matter how long I wait, nothing appears.

I can't even switch it back to Legacy because I can't get into the BIOS. Hitting F12 after power on does nothing. Is there some way to get it back to Legacy mode? Or simply reset the BIOS to default settings?

Dell :: Studio 1535- Fan Now Runs Constantly

Jan 21, 2009

In the last two weeks or so, the fan on my Studio 15 (1535) has been running continuosly. Even when it's under little/no load for extended periods of time, the fan stays on at higher-than-low-speed (from the sound)?

I've had it for about four months and this wasn't an issue until very recently. I have updated the BIOS twice (A02 to A03, then A03 to A06) and wonder if the most recent update was the culprit. I skipped A05 initially, but a few days ago I re-flashed using A05 to see if that might fix the issue- no dice! I'm debating whether I should go back to A03 and see if that does the trick?

But I don't want to keep arbitrarily flashing the BIOS over and over if there's no chance of it fixing the fan issue.

Anyone else have similar issues with the fan running constantly? Any suggestions on how to fix or, at least, mitigate the problem?

FYI- I always use the laptop on a flat, hard surface (desk or wooden lap-desk) to allow proper heat dissipation. I have also tried elevating the back of the system by 1/2-inch or so to improve airflow- NADA!

Dell Latitude E6440 :: Fan Runs Constantly

Mar 5, 2014

I just got a new Latitude E6440. Overall I love the system, but when it is docked / on AC power, I have noticed that I can almost constantly hear the fan. Right now my CPU is only at 6% but I can hear the fan running. Is that just normal behavior with this system? Does it just have a louder fan that runs more often? I just upgraded from an E6410 and I don't recall ever hearing the fan. 

I am running Windows 8.1 Pro, and it is a brand-new install. I ran diagnostics and did not find any issues.
