Dell :: I7-620m Soldered, Embedded Or Upgradable..
Mar 5, 2010
I've been reading the post "The Official Studio XPS 1647 Intel Core i5/i7 "Owners' Lounge" and several users comment this without finally reaching a conclusion if the i7-620M is soldered or not.
Curiously reading this news http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/13/c...nto-tiny-mobo/ the image show a processor in socket.
I have a M6400 (in the precision forum there is less info) and dell warraty support offers me change to M6500, with base arrandale and i7-620M. The arrandale base I suppose, will be with the chipset HM55, but I have doubts if I can update with i7-820QM if this is soldered.

I purchased a DELL XPS13  earlier this year. Until a couple of days ago the web cam worked fine. Now, it does not function. When I try to use it, the light comes on - so it appears it is hard wired -  but an image does not appear. I have tried updating the drivers but the computer says the drivers are up to date.

I 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.

And if it isn't soldered in, could it be upgraded for this?...

Dell.com now has an option to order Studio 17's with 8GB of DDR2. Can I upgrade a 1737 built last year to 8GB (2 x 4GB)?

I've started messing around with my webcam a little recently and can't stand the software that dell included.
Is it possible to change the software and if so, what would you recommend?

I ordered a VAIO Z series with i7 620M chip thinking that it was a Quad core Intel chip. I discovered this morning that is a Dual Core chip. At first I was bummed and was thinking of calling SonyStyle this morning to see if I could change my order altogether.
After researching a bit more....this chip apparently has performance close to quad core chips, (and in some tests it is faster), with much less drain on the battery life.
As I placed my order I asked about the battery life with the large capacity battery option. I was pleasantly surprised to find out that the life expectancy with this configuration is approximately 8 hours! So, I have ordered the laptop of my dreams...a high end performer with great battery life.

I just wanted to double-check if it's possible to drop in a Santa Rosa "refresh" into an older M1300 (Nov. 2007, std. SantaRosa w/ T7500, latest BIOS) and if it makes sense to...
I can buy a "boxed" T9300 for about €300, which does not exactly translate into a cheap upgrade so before I do so, I'd like to know if anyone's done it and if the performance boost is worth it...
Both processors are ~35W...

I've finally got my MacBook Pro 17" specced with Glossy screen, Core i7-620M and GeForce GT330M fully up and running!
I've been replacing the 5400RPM 500GB hard drive with a Intel X25-M 80GB Gen2, along with replaced the 2x 2GB 1066MHz RAM with a pair of nice Kingston 1600MHz @ CL7 2x 2GB ones.
is the fact that Windows7 computer rating tells me that my RAM is the slowest hardware in my machine? So I was checking it's settings, and the MacBook Pro keeps them at 1066MHz @ CL8?
Which is insane considering the potential of these Kingston memory modules!
Is there no way (as there obviously is no BIOS to deal with on Mac hardware) to somehow improve the memory settings?

Can a person easily install more memory and/or a bigger hard drive in a Z? I know with my TZ it was impossible without a degree in electrical engineering, so I'm hoping the Z improves on that experience.

I have a HP 6530b laptop, and after I upgraded my BIOS to the latest version F.13,
I found my embedded Broadcom Netlink Gigabit Ethernet is missing,and the MAC address in BIOS has changed to 1F2021222324,
I had tried some tools to write the correct MAC address back,but all of them didn't work.
I download the HP Tattoo Utilities,but I can't unzip it without password.
If anyone who have the password for these files.

I've noticed lately that embedded YouTube videos aren't working in Mobile Safari. Now, I know that the iPhone doesn't have flash, but there is an embedded video player that works with mpg videos (HTML5 sites seem to work fine) as well as YouTube. That way you can just click the video in a website and it will open up the standard video player. But none of those work for me on the iPhone.
I also know that not all YouTube videos are properly encoded for the iPhone. But these are videos that work fine in the YouTube app, their thumbnail just won't load in Mobile Safari for me to click. I get the gray box with the line through the play button instead. What's worse, is there are now sites where this happens that I know for a fact used to work fine. But now I can't get a single embedded YouTube video to work on my iPhone. Is anyone else having this problem? Maybe you could go to a site on your iPhone where the embedded video does work and I can check to show you the problem.
I'm using a 3GS with 3.1.2.

I was wanting to know if anyone knew of the upgrade capabilites for the Acer Extensa EX4620-4605. Specifically in the processor range.
Does it support any processor that is socket 775 with a 533 mhz FSB? Does it support any quad cores possibly? I'm just looking for different options. Seems like a very nice cheaper laptop with 2 gigs of ram and a 160gb hard drive, but I think it's lacking a little in processing power.
(then again, if you look at the regular standard of equivilence, a 1.46ghz dual core is about a 3ghz single core... though, I don't think it would quite perform as well as that.)

what the performance difference is between the Intel Core i7-620M and the . Intel Core i7-820QM. I always thought the quad core 820QM was faster, but on the hp website the dual core 620M is more expensive.
Is the 620M faster? And is it faster for specific things only?

I've been looking at basicly two models, both got almost the exact same price tag here in Norway, so I'm not sure which one to go for.
The first ones is a MacBook Pro 15" with High-resolution 1650x1080 glossy screen, featuring the top of the line Intel Core i7-620M CPU the other is a MacBook Pro 17" with even higher resolution (1920x1200) glossy screen, featuring the slightly slower Intel Core i5-540M.
I don't list the other specifications as I don't really care about them, I already got a pair of 4GB 1600MHz CL7 (2x2GB) DIM's and a Intel X25-M 80GB SSD that I'll be using anyway.
There will be lots of movies and series played on my MacBook Pro, that's why I don't really considering paying a premium for the anti-glare screen, even though I love anti-glare and tend to struggle with glossy screens I don't see the point in actually paying more for it. And when watching movies and series, in often very dark rooms the glossy screen actually have some advantages.
The hard thing to decide here is slicker and lighter, with smaller screen and lower resolution, but better CPU versus the bigger, more heavy but featuring bigger screen and Full-HD+ resolution but slower CPU.....................

Is it normal that dell.ca would have fewer choices of screens than dell.com? I'm looking at the studio 15, and dell.com lists Hi Resolution/Bright,
glossy widescreen 15.4 WLED display (1440x900) as a choice, which is what I want, but dell.ca doesn't. When I view the system specs though, that choice is listed as on option.

my laptop vostro 3460 won't boot any more. When I turn it on it loads the Dell logo (I suppose it passes the POST) but then it just shows a black page. It could be anything, but I guess that it may have something to do with Windows 8 and the UEFI system. I also would be quite happy to install linux mint and get rid of Windows, but I don't know how to change the boot priority order.
So my questions are:
1 is it a hardware issue ? if not, can I solve my problem easily ?
2 how can I change the boot priority order, to install mint ?

when i first got my dell inspiron and it was all good. when i set the monitor to shut off after 1 minute of being idle, it did and would not turn on unless someone moved the mouse of pressed a button. however, after i reformatted, the computer monitor would shut off after 1 min but soon afterwards it turns on again by itself, then it goes off again, then it remains on permanently. i recently formatted my laptop again and this problem persists. anyone knows whats sup? im using xp ftw... and my configurations are the same as it was before the reformats so idk whats wrong.
