Dell :: Drivers Installation On M4400

Sep 28, 2008

I already started a thread about my PCMCIA card not functioning correctly, it disabled my Wireless card and i have to remove the PCMCIA and reboot to get it too function again. I suspect it might have something to do with the order in which i installed all the drivers. There is a "help" page on the Dell website [url]

click "Installing Drivers in the right order"

Thing is that this help file doesn't use the same names for categories as they do on the actual driver page so it's a bit confusing at times. I didn't do a fresh OS install but tried to reinstall all the drivers in this order to solve the cardbus problem.

Here's what i've done. Actual category names of the Driver Page are in blue....names of categories in the "Help" page are written after them

System Utilities...or System and Configuration Utilies?
Dell - utility....system software
Dell - Utility....recommended Vista Power Management Settings

Chipset
Intel - Driver...Mobile chipset
Ricoh - Driver....R5C847

Video
nVidia - Driver....Quadro FX 770M

Network
Intel - Driver....825xx Gigabit Platform LAN Network Device
Intel - Diagnostics Utility....825xx Gigabit Platform LAN Network Device
Intel - Application....825xx Gigabit Platform LAN Network Device
(I don't have the bluetooth module or the minicards mentioned on the site)

After that i installed everything from the Applications category but somehow the Dell "ControlPoint Connection Manager" Doesn't install.

In the tutorial the PCMCIA card is specifically mentioned to be located in the "Security" category....surprise, surprise...that category doesn't exist! Could it have to do with the Dell "ControlPoint Security Manager"?

I didn't install that because i didn't want to have the fingerprint reader enabled.

Doesn't seem to have anything to do with the PCMCIA card but it's the only part in the driver page where security is even mentioned so, am i wrong?

Dell :: M4400 SSD Windows XP 64 Bit Installation Procedure

May 13, 2009

I have just ordered my M4400 with an 128gb ssd disk. I already have official windows XP 64 bit so i didn't order an operating system. My question is as follows:

1. with the SSD disk will i be able to install windows on my own? Am i going to need an extra driver like with the SATA drives?

2. if yes how will i be able to load it during the install? will i need nlite or similar software to create a windows installation cd?

3. Has anybody done it and knows the actual procedure? any other recomendations for the installation? Are there any tricks apart from installing the drivers in the order mentioned in the dell site?

4. Finally can i partition the SSD disk through the windows setup like with normal HDs?

Dell :: XPS M1530: SATA Drivers For Windows XP Installation

Feb 2, 2009

After reading Its OFFICIAL! Windows XP works perfectly on the XPS m1330!, I've decided to install XP on my M1530, but i'm unsure on what to do about step 1:

"Step 1... You need a version of Windows XP SP2 with built-in SATA drivers... I personally used LastXP (feel free to go find this on a torrent site somewhere,

you have the option to install one of your own valid XP keys as part of its setup). (The other way is to put SATA drivers on a USB stick and hit F6 during initial Windows setup...) .....

Dell :: OS Installation On A NB

Mar 16, 2009

im buying a new laptop soon and in order to cut costs i decided to pick up a notebook that is not preinstalled with any OS (it says "free Dos" in the specs) since i already have a copy of windows xp pro and vista home edition at home which i will be installing on it.

now my noobish question is whether or not i will be able to install one of these operating systems or do i need a "special" version of the OS that is designed for the specific notebook in order for it to work as some seller told me? the model is Dell Studio 1537...

Dell :: OS Installation

Mar 21, 2009

I've been looking around the internet, with no luck so far to answer my question. Hoping you can help me out

Anyway, quite some time ago, I purchased a Dell XPS M1710 laptop; Vista Home Premium. Recently, after moving into my new job, I have decided I need to upgrade to Vista Business.

Would it be possible to purchase an OEM disk (such as one you buy with a piece of hardware from Newegg) and run that on my Dell machine, or will it not allow me to use it, as I'm required to use my original disk that came with the laptop?

Dell :: SoundBlaster X-Fi MB Installation

Dec 30, 2009

After doing a refresh reinstall on my XPS1645 (and getting the X-Fi MB driver disk from Dell after a phone call), I'm having some issues getting the software to work again.

The installation process appears to go fine, but when I try to open any of the provided Creative programs (Audio Control Panel, etc.), I get the following error message:
The audio device supported by this application is not detected. The application will exit.

I'm going to try reinstalling both Creative and the IDT drivers. Has anyone else run into this?

Dell :: Latitude D630 Intel 4965AGN Installation

I just received an Intel 4965AGN card i bought from ebay and proceeded to install it in my Latitude D630.

Card was recognized by windows fine and loaded drivers fine, it just doesn't find any networks.

I believe I installed the antennas correctly (1: white, 2: gray, 3: black).

Also the wifi switch on the side doesn't work and the LED is always off even though the Intel diagnostics say that the card's Radio is ON.

Is my card bad or is it just not compatible (BTW: It is toshiba branded.

Dell Inspiron 1545 :: New Hard Drive Installation

Jan 30, 2013

My existing hard drive is failing.  So I purchased and installed a new hard drive in my laptop.  Ran diagnostics.  Failed the hard drive "confidence test" and got error reading 4400:011A target not ready.  I ran the "device self test" and it passed.  The other possible tests "read test" and "verify test" are grayed out probably because the diagnostics/system cannot see the hard drive.  At the dos prompt I can access C drive and run its DIR and CHKDSK.  So the new drive appears to be physically installed but the computer system does not recognize or identify it.
