Dell :: XPS M1330 Webcam Software: Upgradable?
May 2, 2009
I've started messing around with my webcam a little recently and can't stand the software that dell included.
Is it possible to change the software and if so, what would you recommend?

I just wanted to double-check if it's possible to drop in a Santa Rosa "refresh" into an older M1300 (Nov. 2007, std. SantaRosa w/ T7500, latest BIOS) and if it makes sense to...
I can buy a "boxed" T9300 for about €300, which does not exactly translate into a cheap upgrade so before I do so, I'd like to know if anyone's done it and if the performance boost is worth it...
Both processors are ~35W...

Dell.com now has an option to order Studio 17's with 8GB of DDR2. Can I upgrade a 1737 built last year to 8GB (2 x 4GB)?

I've been reading the post "The Official Studio XPS 1647 Intel Core i5/i7 "Owners' Lounge" and several users comment this without finally reaching a conclusion if the i7-620M is soldered or not.
Curiously reading this news http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/13/c...nto-tiny-mobo/ the image show a processor in socket.
I have a M6400 (in the precision forum there is less info) and dell warraty support offers me change to M6500, with base arrandale and i7-620M. The arrandale base I suppose, will be with the chipset HM55, but I have doubts if I can update with i7-820QM if this is soldered.

Can a person easily install more memory and/or a bigger hard drive in a Z? I know with my TZ it was impossible without a degree in electrical engineering, so I'm hoping the Z improves on that experience.

I was wanting to know if anyone knew of the upgrade capabilites for the Acer Extensa EX4620-4605. Specifically in the processor range.
Does it support any processor that is socket 775 with a 533 mhz FSB? Does it support any quad cores possibly? I'm just looking for different options. Seems like a very nice cheaper laptop with 2 gigs of ram and a 160gb hard drive, but I think it's lacking a little in processing power.
(then again, if you look at the regular standard of equivilence, a 1.46ghz dual core is about a 3ghz single core... though, I don't think it would quite perform as well as that.)

A few days before I was going to shipping my Studio 15 off. I looked in the box and low and behold I found the Dell Webcam Center disk that I originally thought that Dell had forgotten to include.
Upon installation I found that the specific version of Dell WC that came with my Studio 15 is not the same one that you find at the downloads center on support.dell.com.
I could never get the downloaded Dell WC to work, even after numerous chats with technical support. No matter how many times I contacted Dell about this, they claimed there is only one version of Dell Webcam Center. Clearly that isn't true .....

I had my display replaced a couple weeks ago. never thought to test it before he left. now I wanted to turn it on but it says it can't be found.
how do i find out if its actually connected? no lights flash when the pc boots up. i always thought with vista it would flash a blue light at boot up.

My webcam wont power on, even when I open the Dell webcam console.
On other occasions, it will repeatedly turn itself on and off, with the "budup" noise, like the same noise when you connect a usb device.
It gets very irritating, and it can happen 50 times before it stops(like the other night when I was playing a game,
and was doing nothing in relation to webcams). Its as if im opening and closing the lid, but the lcd isnt effected(perhaps its the lid connection for the webcam wire, if that exists??)
I opened up the M1530, and checked the connection to the motherboard, thanks to another thread here ... M1530 webcam not working....
And the pic supplied here http://forum.notebookreview.com/atta...2&d=1223851321
That seems to be fine, and since reassembled, it wont turn on at all. That happened before I deassembled it, so its not a problem I caused, and could just start to repeatedly turn itself on and off again at any stage.

I just received my M1530 from Dell and noticed that there's a gap between the black border trimming around the webcam and the top of the lid.
If you have the laptop open like you're using, then at the top of the black trim above the screen it starts flush with the colored part on the lid of the laptop but slowly separates towards the middle (right below the silver notch to open the lid) and then goes flush again on the other side.
Is this a normal build? I can post a pic if it's not clear in the post.

Which version of the webcam driver allows for pan/tilt? When I first had the laptop loaded from Dell these features worked in the settings.
I formatted a few times since then and just used the Windows drivers. Now, if I move the slider nothing happens at all.

I own an Inspiron 1520 and have recently started using the integrated webcam. The picture quality is great, but when used in webcam sessions or personal recordings, my voice is out of sync with the image.

Ever since I upgraded to Windows 7, my computer crashes when the webcam is started. Whether it's an online app or Skype, as soon as I try to start up my webcam I get a BSOD

Keep getting the following error message -
"No supported webcam driver detected. Please install the driver using the dell resource disc and launch the center again"
I have uninstalled and reinstalled the driver multiple times and I have the newest driver.

I recently upgraded to windows 8, and my laptop worked smoothly, and then randomly after maybe a week of use my webcam is no longer recognized.
I can't find it in device manager to update the driver or pretty much anything! the microphone still works perfectly, but its as if my camera ceased to exist, as if it were not at all connected to my laptop. I tried finding the driver online, but only managed to find the driver for the xps 17z, which I thought would work, but it wouldn't install as it gave me the message, you must have Windows XP SP2 or higher installed.

what I have here is an e1705 which I have been modding, externally it looks like a 1710, which one day it will be one when I can afford the prices, but what I want to do is I want to take a cheap USB webcam with a built in microphone, and build it into the bezel above the screen.
Has anyone done this before?
The only issues I'm afraid of are camera size, the rest should be fairly easy, tapping into a USB port, setting the mics and drilling holes etc.
Making room for a tiny cam will surely be the hardest part, and making room for it up there and having to cut apart at the lock system at the top to keep the screen from opening.
Luckily since I do have an XPS LCD back on this there is plleeenty of room for wires etc, the standard 1705 LCD back is nearly flush with the backlight making it hard to add any more wires, but the XPS LCD back has tons of room so i'm not worried about that, and I've opened this up enough to route wires down to one of the USB ports easily.

So I've been having this m1530 since xmas of '08 and this problem has occurred since day 1. Basically, I bought this xps m1530 from the dell outlet and have loved it except for this d*** webcam. Originally had vista 32bit on it. Just upgraded to Win7 a couple days ago(loving it BTW), thinking it may solve it but nope. Everytime I try to start the webcam it sends my comp into a BSOD and then it restarts and functions as if nothing happened. No matter if I try using it through the webcam center, or on a video chatroom. I'm thinking it has to be driver related but I'm not sure.

Everytime we connect for a webcam chat, it breaks up and disconnects. Is it because of our internet or is it an issue with the operating system, etc? .

I installed dell webcam central in the hopes that would update the driver, but although the webcam central SW works, the driver has not been updated in device manager. It still says the MS Integrated Webcam 6.1.7600.16385.
What do other people who have no problems with their webcam see under device manager for their imaging device, and where did you find the driver?

What I want to do now is modify the screen case and fit a webcam. My problem is that I've taken the entire thing apart, looked at the motherboard and the back of the screen and I cannot find there the webcam plug is for the stock camera.
Does anyone have any idea? The Dell disasembly guide shows a short ribbon like cable going off to the right, but I find no port for it nor does the guide give more detail.

I'm trying to get the webcam running but I really don't know how to do so.
I installed the dell webcam manager. If I want to launch the webcam console I get the warning that I have to install the webcam driver first.
Well, I tried to install the webcam driver (located at the M6400 driver section) but this installer only tells me that no webcam manager was found and aborts the installation?
I also don't have any webcam manager cd that is mentioned at other posting about this topic. It wasn't delivered with the notebook.
