Dell :: Better To Order A Laptop Through Phone Or Through Website?
Jul 4, 2009
I called Dell just to ask a question about their product, and before I hang up, the representative told me when I was ready to order, to call her back and she can offer be the best deal.
Is that true, can she offer me a deal?
I want to customize the XPS16 to almost the most powerful configuration. What type of discounts can the dell representative offer me?

I ordered a laptop from Dell on October 1st over the phone. Immediately after I placed the order, I looked it up on dell's website to make sure it had gone through.
The status said "In Production." So then I called the 800 number that gives you an automated message about your order status (yes, I'm anxious), and the recording said "Your order was received today and is currently being processed." So I thought that was weird that the website and phone service were telling me two different things.
So the next day I checked the website and it still said "In Production" and I called the number and it said my order was still "being processed." Also, on the website under Billing Information, it said "Bill to: N/A" and I was concerned that maybe my billing information was wrong.

Is it my imagination or did the order status line change sometime in the past 12 hours?

Hello,
I'm looking to buy a speaker addons for my Dell Studio 17.
I've been browsing through the 4 or so pages and there's just so much!
My budget is under 100$. Here is the link:
http://accessories.dell.com/sna/cate...8&~ck=anav&p=1
There's about 4-5 that I really like but I don't know if its crap or not.
Any recommendations?

Im using a dell inspiron 14r(5421); intel core15 3337u: intel Centrino 2230 wireless Bluetooth driver.
when I pair my phone (HTC Sensation) with my laptop I can only see the option to share files and transfer PIM objects. There is no option whatsoever to stream audio or to use my laptop as a headset. I had this option in my windows 7 acer laptop but that was using a Broadcom driver for Bluetooth..

I was very excited to order a dell vostro 1520 online, and i got a great deal on it. i ordered the laptop on the 14th of this month, and according to the email they sent me, it was supposed to be delivered by the 30th... which is pretty late but since i was getting a pretty good deal IMO, i thought "whatever, as long as its here before may 4th".
however, earlier today i got a call from dell telling me that they wont be able to build the laptop since they dont make them anymore.... ??? couldnt they have told me this EARLIER like say, LAST WEEK?
the dell vostro 1520 is STILL listed on their website (dell.com and click on small business) along with many other laptops. i dont know what to do at this point. obviously i will have to order another laptop, and it will come VERY late according to my schedules and time constraints... but which dell laptop can i order and which shouldnt i even bother with since they dont build it anymore and apparently are too lazy to update the website?

but when you try to add your configuration to the cart, it tells you that you have to call an agent to order. There is even an option for an RGB 1920x1200 LED screen!
But, at least they're FINALLY available ..................... guess I need to call and cancel my Studio 15 now

I've heard there are benefits such as prices/extras from calling your order in and just wondered some things people got. Also how do EPP/school discounts work over the phone.

I'm having problems with my m1730 and I'd like to get a replacement, but of course the low-on-the-totem-pole service techs are telling me no according to their script. I need to escalate that problem but they won't put me through to their supervisors, nor will they give me any phone numbers.

I just bought an Insprion 7520, and upgraded the windows os to ultimate. However after reading few reviews of this os, I wanted to switch back to Home Premium so that it would be like I bought it. However after installing Home Premium, some of the drivers that I downloaded from the Dell Drivers and Downloads website were unable to install. These problems have also lowered the laptops score in the Windows Performance Index. The GRAPHICS score went from 6.6 to 5.6 and RAM socre 7.9 to 7.7.
-Intel Rapid Start Technology : "The system does not meet the requirements" (It did when I bought it. What has changed I cannot understand.)
-Seagate Firmware v 0005DEM1, A05 : Got a FAILED message in the dos screen.
-Dell-Hardware version GS002D, A02 : Got a message saying "Not compatible with x64 systems".
I have the service tag and the express service code if needed.

I can't get in contact via web/email to Dell as my service tag doesn't get recognised on the wesbite, and the auto detect doesn't work
I have a Studio 1555 laptop and want to add bluetooth to itÂ
I have found this:
[URL]...
and this:
[URL]....
Model numbers 0P560G and 0M960G
Which one I need and whereabouts I need to check inside the laptop to see if I have the slot available? I am capable of doing this sort of stuff as I have built my own PC, just don't normally do anything to laptops (other than install an illuminated keyboard in this)
Will it work if I just add the module and install the driver?

Every time I log in to a web site in IE, SimplePass pops up asking is I want to remember the password:
Â
I have the option to remember web site logins turned off:
Â
I could ignore it, but SimplePass is blocking IE from proceeding until I reply.
Â
I am running Windows 8.1 on a brand new Envy Touchsmart 15 15-j151nr laptop.
Â
I like using the fingerprint sensor to log in to windows, but I am going to have to disable SimplePass if I can't get this fixed.

I have HP Envy 15-171nr notebook pc installed with Windows 8.1 pro. Since past 2 to 3 days I was not able to connect my mobile phone to the laptop through bluetooth. So I removed my phone from the paired device and again tried to pair it with my laptop, but I couldn't pair it. So I tried to reinstall the bluetooth driver from HP Recovery Manager. It was notified that the installation was successful but after that there is no bluetooth icon the PC Settings where I can switch on/off bluetooth. There is no bluetooth icon in the Device Manager as well.Â

I am trying to use the bluetooth in my X230 to pair my laptop with my cell phone. I want to be able to use my cell phone as a personal hotspot, in case I am in an area with no secure wi-fi. I would have thought that this would be standard feature in a laptop that is touted as a business device, but apparently this is not the case.
Â
I installed both the bluetooth driver and the latest system update, [URL]..... but it is still not working for me. I am now able to connect my cell phone to my X230, but instead of enabling me to access the internet via Bluetooth, a dialogue box appears enabling me to play songs that are on my cell phone using the laptop speakers.the bluetooth driver did not come pre-installed on the x230, and I am disappointed that I am not able to use my cell phone as a personal hotspot for my x230.

Is anyone else getting this?
I've been trying to access various pages under "My account" and am getting this error for the last week.
The phone support has no idea and is not helpful with this.
Is it just me or a general error?
