I ordered a Dell 1537 laptop with a 320GB hard drive.
The laptop arrived yesterday, and I checked its hard drive's size, which showed 288GB, of which 269 is free.
This laptop has win8, I am trying to load win7 on this laptop but I am not understanding how to change the boot order to boot from the cd drive, what's listed below is what I am seeing in SETUP? Boot list option [UEFI] File browser ADD boot option File browser Del boot option Secure boot [Enabled] Load legacy option rom [Disabled] Boot option priorities Boot option #1 [Windows boot manager] Boot option #2 [UEFI OS] Boot option #3 [UEFI IP4 Realtek PCIe FE Family Controller] Boot option #4 [UEFI IP6 Realtek PCIe FE Family Controller]
Also, my research is showing this is a 64 bit unit.
I have a problem with my laptop, is an acer aspire 5672wmli, the model with 1gb of ram.
The drive is a Matsushita UJ-845-S, when it was new it had a firmware version 1.00 and they gave me some incompatible problems with some media, so i decided to flash with a newer version, 1.02 and after that the drive work well but I was unable to did the boot from cd.
The firmware page is this:
[url]
The firmware 1.02 is for toshiba OEM and this is why it give me this problem.
So now wath I can do, I send an email to acer-support but they want only that i send to acer but i must pay because is my fault .
My question is, I see some internal dvd drivers for notebook to buy, so I can buy one and replace with my?.
All internal drives can work fine if I replace or i must see some technical caractheristics?
My Recovery E: Folder is full -- 31.9MB free of 14.6GB - Windows Vista. I keep getting pop ups/messages saying that my E: folder is almost full, and occasionally that I should close my internet browser so I don't lose information.
Some of them discussions said to go into the E: folder and delete files which should be there (can't access it the folder -- there's only a warning message) or to change the Drive Letter (get a message that says it cannot remove "the letter drive of your volume", and now I'm not sure what I should do next.
Has anyone attempted to remove the turtle 4200rpm drive that comes with the base unit and install a 7200rpm or a better SSD drive? Just wondering if its possible for someone with a little know-how.

He doesn't like his panel because everything is too small and we decide to change panel.
Vostro panel woking great with the ASUS G1S, but ASUS panel can not work with Vostro, when turn on, the screen split 2 part in POST and change to dark when log on to windows.
We just change the panel, can not change the inverter.
How to solve this problem? Can anyone help me?
I received my Dell precision M4400 for two days now and I'm really desapointed about the quality of the screen.
I would like to know: is it possible to change this screen by a more expensive one (by paying the difference of course).

I was looking at ordering a new LCD back top cover like this: http://www.parts-people.com/index.ph...n=item&id=4240
Is it a time-consuming process or difficult?
I got my Dell 1557 about a month ago and for a while, it seemed just fine with my display brightness.
I could change it to however bright I want it to be. Then today, when I turned on my computer, my settings for my display brightness was at the highest when it normally is in the middle.
At first I thought nothing of it because I could easily change it with the F4 and F5 buttons, but after I logged on and tried to change it, nothing happened. Not even after I restarted the computer or reinstall the ATI Catalyst Center.
Specs
Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit
Core i7-720QM
4GB DDR3 1333Mhz RAM
Full HD 1080p High Brightness LED
I got dell to send me a new back cover (Blue in color) and instead of the ccfl display i had im now useing the led lcd one.
i used the metal backets that were on my ccfl display and they fit perfect on the led display. how ever when i put it back together the bezel cuts the top of the screen off and the bottom is too low.
is there a bezel espically made just for the led display or do i need to get the correct metal brackets that hold the display into the cover??
I have a Dell 1525, bought in April 08, about 3 months ago time started to get out of sync and multiple problems with battery "plugged in not charging."
So today after charging the battery from a friends external battery charger ( friend had same problem) I was updating the BIOS to A16 from A06 and when the laptop was restarting with the bios update I get a message saying "Time of Day Clock Stopped."
My question is if I replace the CMOS battery will this solve the problem?
Looking at dell documentation from
http://support.dell.com/support/edoc....htm#wp1179839
looks tedious and time consuming but not hard .....
does anyone know if there is software or a bios hack to change the ram bus speed? the m1730 is getting beat by a gateway because the bus speed on it is 1066 and it seems like we are stuck at 667.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've been using a T400 for 6 months or so. As my company uses Dell, I'd been given a new E6400 (P9600, 4GB,250GB, 160M) to use. I've got vista business on the T400, re-built from scratch, working very well.
I'm thinking of cloning the drive, boot in standard VGA, remove all the lenovo software and drivers, then install the Dell ones. Would this work? Are there any downsides to that? It would really save me time and effort as I've got around 150GB of data on that drive..
Need to change the touchpad settings on my Dell XPS 14Z, running Windows Professional XP 64.
Online searches to find the touchpad settings have indicated touchpad settings could be accessed in the Control Panel under Mouse options or via an icon in the taskbar.
Unfortunately, none of these appear true. Control Panel>Mouse does not have any touchpad tabs and there is no touchpad icon in my taskbar.
Attempts to find the user manual for this model have also proved fruitless. The link on the Dell site for the XPS 14z directs me to a user manual for a different model laptop (M1330).
I need to know if I can change the color an Inspiron 6400 (gray to black), using the plastic pieces of a vostro 1000 (black). I think they are the same.
If is possible, i need to know if I just need these parts:
- Dell Vostro 1000 Palmrest and Touchpad DX354 (BLACK)
- Dell Vostro 1000 15.4" LCD Front Bezel Trim PM606 (BLACK)
- Dell Vostro 1000 15.4" LCD Back Cover KT786 (BLACK)
- Dell Vostro 1000 Power Button Hinge Cover HX873 (BLACK)
Id like to be able to change the audio out from my headphones to my desktop speakers and vice versa without having to close and re-open iTunes.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI heard some crackling from my hard drive (presumably) and then all the hard drive functions stopped. I could move the mouse but opening files, folders etc. wasn't happening.
So it seems the HD just stopped working. I had to force reboot and after that all was fine again.
I'd like to make an image/clone of the hard drive in case I need to exchange it to a new one. Can someone point me to a good preferably free program that does the job. I have Vista 64bit OS and a 250GB HD that is some basic model that Dell ship
This may be an unusual inquiry but I'm wondering how hard it can be done.
Yes, I took a look at their service manual but if you have done it and have some tips, please let me know.
I have 2 Dell Studio 1535 laptops bought from their Outlet.

I realy want the 8800 sli setup, but so expensive. I'll have to settle with 8700 sli .
Is this setup good for another 2-3 years?
Processor will probably be an T9300 with 4GB ram and vista ultimate.
RAID won't happen either because of budget limitations.
Is it possible to upgrade to 8800 sli later on?
Is there anyway I could buy a black keyboard to replace the tacky silver one on my XPS M1530 notebook?
And if so anyone got a link or a part number to the one I would want that would fit and work properly?
I've decided to just spiff up my current machine verses buying a new one as Dell is missing tons of options for customizing notebooks lately and I'm tired of waiting around for them.
Also, I'm assuming it's fairly easy to remove the old keyboard? I'm guessing a few of the screws on the bottom of the notebook are the keyboard screws although I'm not sure which ones they are
i read the manual, but didn't find any way to change the video card. let me know if this is possible, i'd like to change to more powerful video card. right now, mine is setup with nvidia quadro 160m.
View 10 Replies View RelatedI was on the Dell site and for the XPS M1530 it only list a 1280 by something resolution non-LED screen for the options.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have used the search, and this is the same issue as many others have described, and only provided an answer for Nvidia drivers.
I have an e1505 with XP pro installed. The video cardis ati mobility x1400. I have all but the trackpad drivers installed. Quickset is installed as well. The problem is when I close the lid of the laptop. The screen seems to resize and keep the icons at a lower resolution position. If I restart the computer, the icons loose the position and go into a standard grid on the left side of the screen. I can manually restart explorer through task manager. If I do this before i restart, the icons go back to a normal, non changed position. After restart, there is no change.
This issue only started after I plugged in an external monitor for the first time.
I have turned off quickset, and reinstalled the ATI drivers.
found a good deal on a 1555 locally but it has a blue lid. i was wondering if i can buy a black lid and just swap it out myself.
