Dell :: XPS M1730 With The 8700m Card

Mar 27, 2008

I am looking at getting a Dell XPS m1730.

If I get it with the 8700m card, can I eventually swap the card out for an 8800m gtx? or are they not swapable?

Also, could I get the single card, then eventually put in an sli co0nfig?

Or if I get the SLI 8700s, can I put a gtx in?

Dell :: Are My GPU Temps Normalusing M1730 (8700M GT SLI)

Nov 7, 2009

Core 1 is 69-73°C at idle
Core 2 is 71-74°C at idle.

I haven't stressed them, but the temps haven't changed much at all while playing Batman: Arkham Asylum at 1920x1200. They both got up to 77°C. I don't really play videogames and got this game just because this computer is apparently a gaming machine and it is actually quite fun!

I'm worried about temperatures because I've read about the incredible failure rates of the GPUs in this model and if its already getting wacky, I'll be contacting Dell (as this is a replacement for an older computer).

Dell :: M1730 Exchanged Due To SLI - Vid Card

Nov 29, 2008

I'm constantly getting the

"Video card driver did not respond but recovered"

Error and enabling SLI makes the problem even worst.

I've returned the laptop to Dell and they changed the MOBO and Vid cards (so it says in the work order) but the problem is still there. It's not as bad as it used to be but it still exists. frankly, I'm gonna call them and ask for another latop to see if that will solve the problem but who knows. I'm wondering if anyone here has managed to get this laptop running smoothly play Battlefield 2, call of duty and other intensive FPS games like Fallout3 or Bioshock, not to mention crysis,

Dell :: XPS M1730 Video Card

Mar 22, 2009

Both m8800gtx have an error code 43 in hardware device manager (vista32).
Well, here is what is going on. I have an m1730 that has been working A1 since I got until yesterday when I installed CoD:WaW.

It might be just a coincidence though because the game was playing good for a while until I got kicked out of the game and when I tried to launch the game again it said I had a DirectX corruption. So I took a look at directx diag and saw no problem, except for video card info showed nothing!

This is where I decided to look in hardware manager and saw the dreaded exclamation point (error 43) for both my cards.
I did a full video driver uninstall, then did a driversweeper and took out all nvidia stuff and tried to install my drivers again and still get the same error!

Are my video cards messed up? I will be attempting a clean install on another spare drive today to see if it really a driver/software conflict.

Dell :: M1730 Weird 8700 Video Card

Oct 24, 2009

I have noticed that some code that uses directx (opengl doesn't seem to have the issue, but I have not tested it extensively so it might just be a coincident) it seems to freeze on startup and hangs the machine to the point where the cursor won't move and that lasts for a good amount of time, maybe 20 seconds.

The odd thing though, is that when the game is running, it runs fine... even in Windowed mode. Except if I click another window outside the game, like I select the task manager window and then my machine hangs again for a while then I basically have to close the game, which takes a long time to close while my machine is hung and if I let it sit, it will eventually close and come back.

I have tried it in SLI mode (my pc specs are at the bottom), in Single mode, I searched online and some suggest it might be a video card issue, has anyone here with M1730 or similar machines experienced the same thing?

Dell :: Switiching HD From 6400 With NVidia Card To Intel Card?

Sep 25, 2009

Just swapped out my e6400 with the nVidia 160M GC fro a 6400 with the Intel card (due to heat issues).

I tried just swapping the hard drives so that I wouldnt have to reinstall the OS.
Its not letting me start Windows.

I think the issue is that I dont have the drivers on my older HD for the new motherboard/GC.

Dell :: M4400 Internal Card Reader Cannot Read Some SD Card

Feb 22, 2010

I have a brand new M4400, running W7pro x64. The M4400 came with an internal SD card reader. Now this card reader cannot read some standard SD cards (other work fine). Especially,

I have a Transcend SD 4GB 133x (http://www.bestpriceaudiovideo.com/i...ard-detail.jpg) that is problematic.

When I put the card in the reader, W7 tells me to format the card. This I do not want to do, of course. If I open Disk Management, it takes ages to open, and eventually shows the card as "Unallocated".

Dell :: (M1710 With A 7950GTX Card) Card Was Overheating ...

Apr 5, 2008

I've been having problems with my video card. (M1710 with a 7950GTX card). The card was overheating and even after applying AS5 and cleaning the vents it was reaching around 100c in games. After about a year, i started to also get memory parity errors...

Long story short, i contacted dell and they mailed me a new mb and a new video card.

I just got it now, and i am going to open the rig and replace the video card.. I am just not sure about the mother board, should i replace it as well ?

The parts that dell sent are refurbished parts, and as i know that my m.board is working i am not sure whether i should replace it or not.

Acer :: Card Reader Cannot Read A 2GB H-Type XD Card

Nov 11, 2009

I bought a new 8935G and found that the card reader cannot read my 2GB H-Type xD card.

The camera I'm using it in does not show any problem.

I tried reinstalling reader driver.
GDSFGSF
I teste the reader with an old 16Mb xD card and this works.
FSGFSG
When I put the 2GB card in, Windows Vista says it has to be formatted; at this point the card is already unreadable in the camera and must be formatted againg there.

If I try to format on pc, the process stops at about 90% with an error.

Dell :: XP Pro X64 For M1730

Apr 2, 2009

I'm installing x64 XP Pro on my system (check my sig) after using x86 XP pro for many odd years. I was hoping I could get some help cultivating all the x64 bit compatible drivers for my system because this is a large undertaking, and all my drivers I have backed up to flash drive are for my current 32-bit system, so this is overwhelming to me......
I was hoping I could just get some help from the community retrieving OEM drivers (not Dell drivers) for my system. I want everything up-to-date, including RAID matrix manager and chipset drivers....
