May 28, 2009Anyone else (in the US) stuck on order processing?
I have ordered probably 15 dell laptops over the years using my DPA account and they always go to In Production status fairly quickly

Sony :: Style Order Processing
Sep 12, 2009I recently ordered a Vaio FW-490 CTO with an estimated ship date of 9/16, but the order has been processing since the day I ordered it. Also, today I recieved an email:
"We regret to inform you that all or part of your Sony Style order SW********* has been delayed.
In order to serve you better in the future, our warehouse system was shutdown tonight. Regrettably, we encountered problems with your order that prevented your order from being fulfilled in time for the shutdown. Unfortunately, we will be unable to ship your order until 9/18/2009."
Is it normal for it to be in processing this long, or should I call them to see the the "problems with my order" are?
Dell :: Not Able To Build After 2 Weeks Of Order (order Denied)
Apr 24, 2010I 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?
Dell Inspiron 7720SE :: Noisy Fan And Disk Processing
Apr 6, 2013I got this 7720SE from woot 3 days ago and after i played metro2033 on day 2 problem came up.. before that the laptop was really quiet even though steaming its like silent mode . and you wont hear anything .

i tried online support but they keep saying i have to call customer care because theres a "pending issue" with my account ...
Dell Latitude E7440 :: Loud Buzzing Noises On Processing
Jan 15, 20142 days ago I was given a new work laptop - the E7440 (its brand new).
Straight away I noticed some loud buzzing noises which a fellow colleague said was the fan. It's quite annoying. I soon noticed however when my laptop was idle these noises would stop, and when I clicked they would start again. Whenever I ask the Laptop to do anything these noises start up, and considering im active on the machine all day.
There are high pitched, buzzing noises. And as mentioned are aligned to when the laptop is processing something. They also make sounds when I scroll the mouse for example.
Acer :: Aspire 7520 Slow Graphics Processing
Jan 6, 2010I have an Acer Aspire 7520 that is 2 years old, the system specs are:
- AMD Athlon 1.8GHz Dual Core.
- 17" WXGA+ CrystalBrite LCD.
- 4 GB DDR2.
- 500 GB HDD.
- NVIDIA GeForce 7000M.
It worked fine for a year but starting the second year, the sound card started to fail, and by that I mean that the sound sometimes works and sometimes it doesn't, but I solved this problem by buying an external sound card.
Two months ago I accidentally hit the laptop in the wall and after that incident the Graphics card can't process anything that requires high or medium graphics for example:
-When I play 720p videos the video runs very slow, it should be noted that I used to play 720p withouth any problem before the accident.
-The Windows Experience Index for Graphics went from 3.4 to 2.0 after the accident.
-Games that used to run at 30-40 FPS, now run at 2 - 3 FPS max.
- Windows AERO runs very slow now, so I if I want to use windows I have to run Windows Classic theme.
Things I've done:
1) Format my PC and tried different OSs XP, 7.
2) Flash the BIOS.
3) Change the Hard Drive with another one.
4) Change the RAM.
None of these things worked.
Does anyone know what might be causing this problem?
- screen went bad?
- Graphics card went bad?
or ?
Acer :: Extensa 4230 - Laptop Powers On No Screen, No Processing
Aug 28, 2009I don't know what happened, but my laptop's not working.
I was using my laptop as a desktop computer (no battery) when I accidentally switched the switch off. After switching it on, I tried to turn on my laptop and the first thing I noticed was the blank screen. Then the power turned off, and then turned on again. The fan is working, but nothing else is. I don't hear or notice any processing, so I'm pretty sure nothing's working right except for the fan and the lights indicating that it's on.
I tried to reset the laptop by disconnecting it from power and then turning it back on after 30 seconds - but no luck.
I have an Extensa 4230 by the way.
Sony :: Z890Max Battery Life For Word Processing On Transatlantic Flights
Apr 28, 2010I did a search and read various thread on the older Sony Vaio Z battery life. However, these are all in the year 2008 and pre Windows 7.
Vaio Z battery life tests
Vaio Z reviewers getting 9hr battery life!
I do a fair bit of transatlantic flights. So I'd like to know what battery life I can get with the Sony Z890, Windows 7, with all processes such as WIFI, Bluetooth etc turned off and being used in word processing and reading mode using the integrated graphics, with brightness at 50%. SLOW is fine as word processing is easy.
Anyone has a sense of the battery life I should get?
What if I turn on WIFI and use it as a netbook for surfing at airports?
I can't seem to find a recent discussion on battery life. The 2008 threads has a huge disparity with some people claiming something like 9 hours doing basic stuff! Hard to believe but thought I'd check with you guys.

Dell :: Order Delayed
Feb 12, 2010Just got my email saying my order was delayed. It was supposed to be here today now its the 2/23. It seems like almost everyone in this forum is getting their order delayed. Dell must really be short handed or short of supply.

View 4 Replies View RelatedDell :: New Studio XPS 16 Order
Jul 8, 2009So Dell is taking back my Dell Studio XPS 16 laptop b/c of heat issues and a complete line of stuck pixels on the screen. However, since there is nothing else on the market that I really like,
I am thinking about ordering a new one with the P8700 processor instead of the T9550. How much reduction in heat output could I expect from the P8700 and what type of performance decrease am I looking at? I read the thread below regarding the difference in the two processors but I'm more curious about the real world difference.
Also, should I opt for the 1GB of video RAM or the 512 MB version (and will the 1GB increase heat output)? I opted for the SSD option for heat reduction as well.

Dell :: Outlet Or Order?

Dell :: How To Cancel A Order?
Feb 2, 2009I was wondering what is the easiest way to cancel an order with Dell? Is there any way to do this online, through chat or email?
If for some reason it ships, can I refuse shipment?
Order details:
Model: SXPS 16
Order date: 1/26
Status: in 'production' with an est. of 2/12.
Here's the deal:
I saw the Best Buy thread and decided that my order with the RGBLED, Bluetooth and 2.8ghz is simply not worth the extra $1,200 to me.
The fact is I really don't 'need' those features, and after looking at the savings and hearing how good the WLED screen is, I decided I want to cancel.

Dell :: Is This Possible Placed Order On 12-10 Arrived On 12-15
Dec 15, 2008I was originally going to cancel my Studio 17 and said I had but decided to give it a shot. Its here now arrived today. I like it alot but I have a few questions. How can my order have been built and shipped so fast I never got any emails that it was in tested or anything. Just from In production to Shipped. Next Day Air Overnight it actually went from Nashville,TN to Ft. Lauderdale, FL to Miami, FL in 24 hours.
#1. How can I tell if I am truly running Vista 64-bit. I went to run and typed WinVer but it didn't say 64-bit. (I did order 64-bit)
#2. I got the RGB LED screen and If I look sideways at the screen edge I can see RED and green lights in there I guess thats how I verify I really got the RGB LED. But the Gamma is off my Reds look a little to pink How do I change that?
#3. I ordered the Intel 5100 Wireless-N WiFi but how can I verify its in there?
I know dumb newbie questions. My first DELL. Still not sure of its a keeper they stuck a Centrino 1 label on it which makes me mad. The new Montevenia is Centrino 2 class. I went with the T9400 2.53ghz 6MB cache
On a Side Note: the 1920x1200 Display was a mistake, I can barely see the text, and my colors are off until I fix it but Vista is such crap and confusing it hides every possible setting, Even Add Remove Programs is named differently.
Dell :: Canceling A Order That Is Already In Production...
Feb 28, 2010I just called Dell Support to cancel my order for a Dell Studio XPS 16 notebook and they said that it could not be canceled because the system is in the final stages of production. Am I not entitled to cancel before they actually ship out the system? The rep said I have to take delivery and then call to request a refund. They have not charged my credit card yet, so could I call my bank and have them deny any forthcoming charges from Dell?
View 10 Replies View RelatedDell :: Why/How Did My Order Ship So Quickly?
Mar 28, 2010I ordered the system in my sig early morning on 3/24. At the time of the order, it was estimated to ship on 4/2 with an estimated delivery date of 4/9. When I called to check the status the next day (3/25), it stated that the order was processing. When I checked again later that night, it said it was shipped on 4/6. I checked the status again the next morning (3/26), and this time it said it was shipped on 3/28 with an updated estimated delivery date of 3/31. Now today, on the 28th, I got the 'order has shipped' email along with the FedEx tracking number. FedEx's estimated delivery date is 3/30.
Anyone have any idea why or how my order could have shipped so quickly? I never did catch it in the kitting/build/testing/boxing stages...and these stages usually take at least a few days. Could I be receiving a recently returned system that just happened to have the same specs? It seems almost unheard of to receive a new system in less than a week after ordering it...especially when considering that they are built overseas and that I picked standard 7-day shipping. Is there any way I can tell if it is a returned system?
My friends and family somewhat jokingly said maybe it's because of my previous order history. I ordered the SXPS 1645 in late November, but later ended up cancelling the order in December due to the throttling issues it was having at the time. When I cancelled the order, it was already in the build stage for a day or two. Could Dell maybe have noticed my history and "rushed" my order this time?
