Dell :: WWAN Slot For Non WWAN Cards
Jul 29, 2009Have D420 here and was thinking if it's possible to use WWAN slot for any other mini pci-e cards like SSD or video decoder. Now Dell docs state not to mix WLAn and WWAN cards between their assigned slots.

May 14, 2013My laptop is plugged in and not charging. I have run a bios and it says that the battery is a non dell battery (even though i have not tampered with the computer at all). I have only had the computer for 5 months. If the battery failed after 2 years yeah that might be acceptable but only 5 months?!?!?! I now cannot use it without plugging it in.

Feb 18, 2013I've just opend my new XPS-L421X today. And I dont think there is a SSD Drive on it (there should be 32 gb ish). I can hear the harddrive running all the time. And it dosen't start up really quick/smooth.I can't find any SSD drive In device manager, it dosent show up under the Disk Drives category. Another thing. The harddrive should be 500 gb. I know you never get the hole 500 gb, but mine has only 415 gb out of the box (whit installed Windows). Is that normal?

Apr 16, 2013I got the l421x 8gig ram laptop and had to install win 7 32bit on it because of work related software. What annoys me is that according to windows I only have 2.4gig ram total. The resource monitor tells me that a whopping 5.7 gig is hardware reserved memory.
Now when I boot I have about 800mb available memory and maybe 100 free.how I reduce reserved memory that the intel graphics use? Other laptops have bios settings for this(e.g my private asus ux32vd) but not this xps. I am fully aware that 8gigs will not be available on a 32bit os - that is not the issue. I'd assume this laptop should have about 3-3.5gig ram total after a fresh boot. But why only 2.4gig ?
Dell XPS L421x :: Ultrabook With Two Drives - Why Not Boot From The SSD
May 1, 2013I recently received my new XPS 14 (L421x) ultrabook. Out of the box, this machine has a 500Gb C: drive labeled "OS" and a second 110Gb SSD D: drive labeled "Data". Windows 8 is installed on the C: drive. There is absolutely nothing on the D: drive.
Does this sound right? I would have thought that you would want to have the OS on the SSD and boot from that (much faster?) drive.
Dell XPS L421X :: Will Not Power Up - No Back Lights On Keyboard
Mar 30, 2013This is the second time I have had this issue. I have already had the motherboard and power supply/cable replaced and it worked for awhile. Here is the issue.
- Occasionally after powering down, the next time I try to power up, the laptop does nothing but show the power light on. No Dell screen, no back lights on the keyboard, nothing else. I press and hold the power button down and after 5 seconds it shuts the light off. I would then try it again with the same result. I let the battery completely drain; plug the power cord back in and after about 5 minutes of charging, try it again. This seemed to work until one day it did not. Then I had the motherboard and power supply replaced and all seemed well. Now, 6-8 weeks later I have the same problem again. A new L421X purchased in December 2012 with 512GB SSD running Windows 8 64 bit. I use this for business and am about to throw it out the window.
Currently, I have tried the power up, drain power trick with no results. It is dead with all my business info on the drive. I am about to dump Dell and switch to HP.
Anything I can do short of a whole new machine?

When I lift my fingers off the touchpad, it jumps to the bottom of the page. This is very frustrating as I have to scroll back up to find my place. This happens with Chrome, Word, IE, Firefox, everything.

Dell :: Can I Use A WWAN Card For JUST The GPS?
Jan 25, 2009I was wondering, if I could use the following card:
Dell 5720 Mini-PCI-e WWAN card

Dell :: XPS M1330 And WWAN 5530
Jul 23, 2009i'm attempting to fit a Dell 5530 WWAN card in my Dell XPS M1330. Could someone advise which cables to attach where?..
There are 3 available cables, a blue, grey/white and black/white but on the 5530 there are 2 connections: main and aux. The blue cable will not reach to the main connection..
Dell :: WWAN/GPS Alternative To ControlPoint
Oct 6, 2008I'm really starting to hate the bloat of controlpoint, but I have a 5530 WWAN card, so need some software to control it, while searching the Dell support site I cam across R198215.EXE which is a Sony Ericsson Wireless Manager for 5530 cards, this is actually intended for use on the Inspiron Mini 910, but it works a treat on the E6500 too.
The download is 72MB but it only seems to install 5MB of software (you could probably trim that down by removing language dlls), you only need to run the software when you actually want to use the card.
I even got the GPS functioning which is more than even the factory installed drivers could manage, the COM7: port was always silent before, now it happily spits out NMEA sentences
Now to remove as much of ControlPoint as I can get away with, hopefully without having to reinstall XP again.
Dell :: WWAN 5530 No Software

When I went in the 'Device manager' read that the driver is working properly, so it is functioning.
Dell :: WWAN Card Interchangibility?
Mar 15, 2010Does anyone know if all WWAN cards are created equal?

Dell :: E4300 WWAN Antenna Alternative
Jan 20, 2010I have an E4300 and an E6400. The E6400 came with a 5530 WWAN chip, which I would like to move into my E4300 instead. When opening the WLAN/WWAN compartment of the E4300 however there does not seem to be any wiring for the GSM card.
I then found some antenna wires leading to the Latitude ON slot. Since I really doubt I will be getting a Latitude ON chip in the near future, would I be able to run these wires to the WWAN card?
Dell :: WWAN And Bluetooth On Studio 1558
May 19, 2010Just got a 1558 in replacement for a 1525. I popped the back cover to install my upgraded Wifi, and add the WWAN and Bluetooth... No extra mini PCI slots for the BT or WWAN - There is a sticker that says WWAN but no connector or wires.... Since my 1525 has these options ( I did not buy the BT or WWAN card from Dell ) do i ask for another system that has these on-board? Is Dell obligated to provide one that is capable even though in their records i did not have BT or WWAN.

Dell :: E6400 + Embedded WWAN + Virtual PC
Mar 13, 2009I have an E6400 running Vista 64. I've got a virtual PC running Windows XP on that. I'd like the virtual PC to be able to access the Embedded WWAN card, but I'm not having much luck.
The Dell (XP version) of the software does not install on the Virtual PC, claiming the system is not a Dell.
I found a generic copy of VZ Access Manager from Verizon, but that one says the WWAN card is turned off, although the switch is set to on and its not disabled in Vista.
Dell :: Unlock WWAN 5530 On XPS Studio 13?
Mar 9, 2009Just received a new XPS Studio 13 purchased as a single customer (rather than through business channels)... having issues with the WWAN 5530 which I got on the presumption that it would be unlocked.
Dell ControlPoint Connection Manager says it is "unactivated HSPA". Have tried activating it via vodafone, but their computers are down today!
- Am I able to activate it without the help of Vodafone?
- Is it locked to the Vodafone network? .....

Apr 10, 2009I have a Vaio TZ330E, it does not have any integrated WWAN. However I happen to come across a work provided plan that pays for wireless connect through AT&T 3G's plan. Can install the Integrated 3G WWAN myself? There is a place to put the SIM Card behind the battery... If so where can I purchase this?
Or Should I just get a PC Express Card or an AT&T USB Connect Card?
Anyone know whether a PC Express Card is better than the USB Connect?
