ALL NEW Inspiron 7000 WiFi is Horrendous!

I got my Inspiron 7000 literally an hour (15-inch, i7core, HD 8 GB RAM 1 TB model) ago. That is fine, but the WiFi is sickening. It keeps down the internet connection and whenever I start troubleshooting it gives me a different problem to be fixed. First of all, it was a problem with the wireless card, then "default gateway was not available".  This is unacceptable. I work at home and need a SOLID connection. It's already enough Dell took almost 3 weeks to get the thing to me and now this. I am tired and frustrated. All other devices in my house will connect and STAY connected, so the problem is not on my end. I send this thing back? I hope not.

Hi, I had this problem with my Dell Inspiron 7000 series 10 Windows running. I am VERY frustrated by lack of Dell to help with this problem. For awhile, I successfully used a plug in USB Wi - Fi dongle (I disabled the internal Intel Dual Band Wireless AC 7265 card first). I didn't have time to browse using phone Dell prolix. I was convinced that it was a hardware problem. Then I solved the problem: I updated the Intel driver (on the site of Dell). No difference. Went to Device Manager, right click the Intel WiFi thingy in network cards, then choose Properties, and then 'Advanced' tab, then I turned aggressive walk until way (no), disabled "disconnect wowlan (no difference), then attached power to the 'up' (no difference). Finally and successfully, I looked up my router wireless BT, found it is "802.11 b/g/n" and changed "wireless" mode in the menu computer laptop adapter: "802. 11 b/g and THAT worked. Instantly, got a solid connection. Great relief. Now, I even had a spare WiFi dongle for one of the laptops to work. I'm pretty annoyed that I couldn't find a tutorial online to Dell about this, however.

  • (Redirected) All new Inspiron 3647 desktop PC has very slow download speeds.

    We live in very slow download speeds.  All other computers and devices in the House can stream video without problem.  Speed tests test our laptop Vaio 2009 to 16 Mbps download and 6 Mbit/s upload.  The Dell is the same download speed, but the download speed is 512 Kps!  It's like the beginning of the 1990s with telephone lines.  We called Dell a week ago and they told us to reload the driver for the wifi card.  The suggestion does not and we could not reload the driver and it made it unnecessary to the wireless card.  They sent us a new desktop case and put us together today and got the same results with slow download speed.  Need help with any suggestions that anyone has to correct the problem of download speed.

    We have a new Motorola modem and a new Linksys router.  And as I said, TVs, tablets and other computers work fine.  Maybe it's just a [Admin NOTE: expletives deleted according to the terms of USE] computer?  It's our first Dell and I must admit, we are more than disappointed so far.

  • PLEASE WAIT, BLUE SCREEN, Windows once connected on the new Inspiron 7537 8.1

    Hi, this is my head. I have a new (less a week old) 15 inch 7000 series laptop PC with Windows 8.1 pre-installed by Dell UK.

    A day after use, I start getting a blue screen that just overlap the start screen (and everything what I am trying to access) saying 'Please wait '. I found on-line means to solve the problem with the option than a job or go back to a restore point. For the last 3 days, I had to perform system restores and especially don't want to continue to do every day.

    Notice all the I changed is to install Chrome.

    I use this site http://www.optimizewindows8.net/2014/01/fixing-please-wait-screen-problem-in-windows-8-8-1/ but it seems that this problem is very popular and there is no solution yet.

    Results

    • Method 4: perform a system restore: The only method that works so far goes back to a restore point.
    • Method 1: launch Safe Mode and perform a clean boot n ' not work, same error after reset. So don't go to investigate the item as they were all off the coast.
    • Method 2: fix the filesystem with CFS scan - I have to do this, you do not have media.
    • Method 3: log in using another account - Not tried but as I only have one account. Plus a lot of people is reporting that they must exercise in using this method with taskkill restoreoptin.exe
    • Method 5: stop waiting for updates: When I got my laptop it turned slowly making me think that something has not been installed correctly.
    • Method 6: end task restoreoptin.exe: You need another account to do this. Trying to restoreOptIn.exe /Ramp, I found that it created the screen 'Please wait '.

    I disabled the Sky drive sync'ing as many messages talking about problems of integration with the operating system.

    Before I do the kickoff at the Dell support by phone, does any body knows more about this?

    Go looking around I found that in the "app My Dell' under 'story checkup\System' a critical error the day I received the laptop. I want to completely reinstall my system but I do not have the media, have no idea where to find my windows key. I found something on "download software factory" on the Dell site, but it did not work. What are you supposed to do here.

    Hi Chris.  I don't have any real help to you that I'm sorry to say, but I also encounter the same problem with my new laptop Inspiron 7000.  I tried method 2 and he obtained throughout the analysis of the Sfc at the end without requiring the installation media and get the message: "Windows Resource Protection is not any violation of the integrity.", which was a dead-end too.

    Takes me back 20 years for Windows 2 and all conflicts of dark material that allows us to get then. Windows 8 rhyme with mistake as far as I'm concerned.

  • Inspiron 7000 - WIndows 8 reinstall (only)

    Hello

    Yesterday, I received my new fantastic Inspiron 7000.  As expected, it is installed with the "trial-ware. Removal of McAfee is extreme pain, and that is why I wish to reinstall with a new image of Windows 8. However, please confirm that the image of Windows 8 appearing as a backup of the system is a vanilla installation and not an existing image which I am emptying everything I want installed.

    Thank you

    Mark

    The factory image will restore your computer to the exact state it was in when you first activated with McAfee.

    To perform a "clean installation", without any other Windows, you will need a Dell installation disk.  In the United States, you can use this form to request a:
    https://www.Dell.com/support/Diagnostics/us/en/19/nondiagnostichome

    Outside the United States, you will need to contact Dell for one.

    With a clean install, you will need to download and install all the drivers manually from support.dell.com... start with a system software (if available for your model), then the chipset.

  • Following Windows upgrade 2-in-1 10 no automatic rotation of screen on Inspiron 7000

    I have an Inspiron 7000 2-in-1 that I just upgraded to Windows 10. Following the upgrade, auto-rotation of the screen has stopped working, and I could not allow him because the button in the notifications area to do so was gray. I also found the check box turn on in the display settings dialog box, but after allowing that the screen has always refused to auto-rotation.

    Note that this function works very well under Windows 8.1, so I know it can't be a hardware problem.

    Then I went to the Manager of peripheral and deleted devices of two sensors, thinking that Windows should detect and reinstall the drivers for them once I restarted. There is unfortunately no, and detection devices have been in Device Manager. I've never seen a version of Windows that does not detect missing drivers for hardware existing after a reboot and re - install automatically.

    Now, all the options to activate the rotation of the screen disappeared, so Windows apparently didn't know that the motion detectors exist.

    I've looked everywhere for these device drivers so I can install myself, including the Dell site support using my service code number and drew a complete blank. Where can I get drivers for detection devices, or otherwise get this problem fixed?

    Please help, a 2-in-1 is pretty useless if I can't get the display to auto-rotation. Thanks in advance!

    Seems, that I figured this out...

    When you uninstall the sensor devices by using Device Manager, Windows 10 do not detect after a reboot and automatically installs the drivers as Windows normally would for any other device (as long as you have the setting enabled in the "Devices and printers" dialog box, it is enabled by default), as I had mentioned previously.

    This is because the sensor for my model laptop drivers (Dell Inspiron 7000 2-in-1 (7348)) are part of the Dell 'Intel Chipset Driver' package. There is absolutely no mention of this on the downloads page, which obviously is not very useful:

    www.dell.com/.../DriversDetails

    Once I installed this package, all the controls for the rotation of the screen appeared, but they were always in gray.

    It turns out that controls the rotation of the screen now gray when you have the laptop open in the "normal position", or with the keyboard on your work surface and the tilted screen back as you would normally use for any another portable computer. Once you either place the laptop on the direction tries or with the keyboard completely folded backward, those controls 'sober up' themselves and can then be changed. To the best of my knowledge, this was not the case in Windows 8.1, and it's easy to fall into entrapment.

    Live and learn I guess, but it's not an obvious problem is easy to understand, or at least it wasn't for me. I hope this helps someone.

  • Inspiron 7000 point 8.1: how to mix the mic input with audio from YouTube (for DIY karaoke)

    Hello

    I want to use my Inspiron 7000 (wIn 8.1) as DIY karaoke machine.  Maybe there's karaoke apps or software, but they are usually expensive and the choice of songs is limited while on the mountain, there are clips from karaoke practically for each song and I want to mix the audio with a microphone on my laptop.  How I can do and it is possible at all?  Is there another solution?  Is it possible to add a reverb effect to the microphone entry?

    Thanks for the ideas.

    Hello. The recording of the sound Properties tab and right-click on your PC to open the context menu, and then click Properties.

    In properties, select the listen check "listen to this device". That will make your input mic through your speakers set. If you get your comments, and then click the levels tab and turn down the mic gain.

    You cannot add reverb on the side of the entrance. You can try to add it to the reading. Open the playback of the sound properties. Right click on the speaker to open the context menu and then properties. In properties, click the enhancements tab, and see what you have there. Below is a screenshot of an old computer with Realtek.

    As you can see he has an accessory called 'Environment' with fanciful names for the different quantities & types of reverb. I don't know whether or not your Realtek driver has a similar improvement. If so, I don't know if it is applied to the mic 'listen' function. If it works it will apply to audio from youtube too.

    If you can not reverberation through the configuration of the Realtek driver, then another solution would be to use a multitrack recording as the free Audacity program. You can save the audio from youtube on a track and your voice on another, and then use the effects of reverberation in the program on your voice.

    This version of Realtek in the screenshot has a function called "voice cancellation". Its purpose is to try to eliminate the voice of a record so that any record can then be a karaoke. I tried it and it's impressive. On a recording where the voice is at the Center, he gets completely eliminated. If the voices are mixed in a different way then it does not. If you want to access the feature, but your version of Realtek does not have it, download the program Audacity - it has an effect like this. You can open a record in the program, and then apply the effect of karaoke recording to eliminate the voice if possible.

  • Firefox becomes very slow with the all new Yahoo Mail

    Problems with the all-new Yahoo! Mail version: everything worked very well, but since the two latest updates of Firefox I started to notice that Yahoo was consuming a lot of CPU (it varies from 35% to 40% and is on the top list of programs CPU consumption) and the browsing experience is not so pleasant - slow. If I quit Firefox and reopen it, becomes faster, but after about 30 min slow / high CPU consumption again. Then I had to go back to the classic version of Yahoo Mail and everything works fine and consumed less CPU. Did I live it? Is it a question of Yahoo Mail? Is there a solution? (Macbook Pro early 2011 / Mac OS X 10.7.4 / Firefox 12.0) Thank you!

    Try to start Firefox in safe mode. This mode disables all extensions, customizations, hardware acceleration, etc., temporarily for the diagnosis and troubleshooting. If Firefox works fine in Safe Mode, then it is probably a problem with the add-on. Restart Firefox in normal mode, and then type "subject: addons" (without the quotes) in the address bar. Disable your extensions, restart Firefox between each one, until you find the troublemaker.

  • How change the font on the Format RTF model so that all NEW documents are defined on this font when creating.

    I want that all new documents I create using the comic strip without police set to 12pt size, but when I create a new document, RTF, it always comes down to the air police in 10 point size.

    I tried to change the font and size then SAVE AS a document rich TEXT in Wordpad, but every time I create a new document is Arial 10 pt text.

    WordPad is a very basic word processing and does not support contain many advanced features such as types of start-up documents templates and so on.  You would need to buy a real processor for these capabilities.

  • New inspiron 3650 won't start

    Saturday, I had a new inspiron 3650. I ran through the stuff to start and then I have it turned off and tried to install a new video card. The video card requires more energy than the 3650 has so I tried to replace the power supply. The new power supply was inconsistent with the 3650 so I put back the power SUPPLY original and the GPU. Now when I try to run just the power light blinks yellow. Fans start, but there is no input or output. That is, the monitor has no signal and the keyboard and mouse do not work. I have no idea of what is happening and any help would be appreciated.
