CREATE PARTITION IN DELL INSPIRON 1545 LAPTOP
Got a new laptop Dell inspiron 1545 with Windos 7 installed. I would like the partition of my drive hard as the majority of the space is in the 'C' drive (the OS drive). I'm afraid if I reduce the volume, I lose my installation of windows, as I intend to reduce the amount of 'C '. I don't have any partition when I bought the laptop. I also don't have any disk recovery.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance

Hey SUNITSAU
Check with dell know where is your recovery partition
Here is some information on shrinking c:, and then do an extra partition of the now unallocated space from him
There is no real advantage to you do this

Remove Vista and install XP SP2 on Dell Inspiron 1545 laptop
I bought a laptop Inspiron-1545 Dell in 2009.
It has Vista and Office 2007.
I recently got admitted to a course where they r with Windows XP and Office 2003 in their program.
So I need to downgrade my OS from Vista to XP.
Thanks for giving me tips for this in details.
(My Dell warranty period is over).
Hi somali.cc,
/ 3GB is fine. Once you have installed Microsoft Virtual PC and start creating a virtual machine only allocate 1 GB of memory for the virtual machine. This will give you then 1 GB for XP and the other 2 GB for your Vista system.
Here is the download link for Virtual PC 2007 http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyId=04D26402-3199-48A3-AFA2-2DC0B40A73B6&displaylang=en
This link can also help getting started: http://www.vistarewired.com/2007/02/21/virtual-pc-2007

In the last 2 days I had a problem as indicated in the title of this post. The fault corrected itself 3 times, but still, it's back to "plugged in, not load.» I use the laptop (Windows Vista Home Premium; 32-bit) on the card without problem, I assume that the card itself is not defective.
I also have a Dell Inspiron 630 M laptop running Windows 7. Can I use this card with the laptop of Vista, without causing damage to the Vista? If it is safe to do so, and begins to charge the battery on Vista, this would indicate that the Vista adapter/charger has a kind of fault.
Hoping someone can give me some advice. Thank you.
Could be - or it could be the power supply. See if the other card gives a link more solid. If so, this is the plug of the adapter. If it isn't, the decision-making within the system.

I had sound problems and got a pop up saying audio applet did not work, I chkd the sound test in Control Panel and drivers in Device Manager it says all drivers have been updated and had a MS Mr. Fixit scan and everything said it was OK. Also I went to chat with and MS engineer who just told me to do the things that I had already done so who did not help either. Then, I lost all sound and when I went and chkd Manager of devices, he said that the sound driver was not installed, I went to Dell to have a driver update installed thinking to recognize the missing driver and install it but that didn't work. I can't find something at Dell who tells me how to install the drivers by default/applets. I got chk Dell for updates of pilot and analysis says that it does not work on something more old then XP but my OS is a Vista Home Premium so I don't understand that, I ran an another Mr. Fixit scan but it showed no problems. I suspect it is the applet which has stopped working and it gives a wrong signal that it is the driver that does not work when it is the applet which poses problem. Is there a scan which analyzes all aspects of the audio system and will repair or replace or at least give me a list of things that need to be replaced or updated? Any help would be appreciated I tried to solve this problem for the past two months and I really want to fix this now if possible.

Dell Inspiron 1545: Can not scan wireless for my laptop
I have a Dell Laptop Inspiron 1545 it is my main computer. I also have a Dell Dimension 4600 series desk top that I use very rarely. My HP printer D110 all-in-one is set up for these two. My problem is that I can't scan to the Dell Inspiron 1545 laptop wireless to the printer. When I try the following message appears on the printer screen: try to may computer or see the documentation press OK.
The last time I used the top of desk, which was a year ago, I was able to scan to it from the printer. However, I think that the printer and the computer are connected, but am not certain. I am able to print wireless from the Dell Inspiron 1545 to the printer without any problems.
I have DSL.
Any help is very appreciated.
Thank you
Hi @BlackSheepFan,
From your description, I think it would be better to remove the software, clean up a bit of the computer, and then reinstall the software. Please complete all of the steps below in the order and let me know the results.
- Hold down the Windows Logo key () on the keyboard and the 'R' to open the dialog box run, type %temp%
- Delete all files and folders in the temp folder. Choose Skip if all pop ups seem to say all files cannot be deleted
- The new software - uninstall the printer software Instructions
- Once the uninstall is complete, reboot the computer
- Follow these steps to reset the registry settings and options for Windows Installer.

What video card do I need on a Dell Inspiron 1545 playing Fallout 3?
I have a problem when I try to play Fallout 3 on my Dell Inspiron 1545 laptop. I tested my computer with the System Requirements Lab and he told me that I need an upgrade. I have a Mobile Intel (r) 4 Series Express Chipset Family. He said that the Minimum that I need for my computer is Direct X 9.0 c compatible video card with 256 MB RAM (NVIDIA 6800 or better/ATI X 850 or better). I looked this up, but I can only find ones for desktop computers. Do you know what I should get the video card and what one is for my computer?
ShawnGenerally, you may not get a new video card for your laptop, but if you can contact so that they can install it for you, unless you know how to install mobile video cards yourself.
I looked towards the top of your machine and it looks like you have the possibility to have a 256 MB ATI Mobility Radeon HD4330 for your machine. That would probably be it. I don't know what type of processor you have, but this card should work for you. Integrated Intel cards are not good for games at all.
Good luck.

Dell inspiron 1545 function keys do not show display
My computer Dell Inspiron 1545 laptop show more a display for my function keys for the level of volume, connection wi - fi on / off, lock shift power. The volume on the system tray icon displays a red 'x' if I press F7. If I press F8 - decrease the volume or the F9 - increase the volume, there is just no indication of any change in the icon and the volume didn't cange except if I click on the icon and open the sound mixer. At that time by pressing F8 will reduce the volume, F9 will increase the volume. I can also increase or decrease the volume with the cursor. I rely on the sreen screen to let me know if I still lock shift on for example. I did "run - msconfig" and found that the quick adjustment box was unchecked. I checked the box. No change. I went in "Task manager" but did not "quickset.exe" in "process". Can you help me? And, Yes, my laptop was recently built.

Dell Inspiron 1545 with a 1397 WLAN Mini Card with XP and SP3 will not connect to WPA2
My laptop is a Dell Inspiron 1545 with a 1397 WLAN Mini Card in XP that has less than two years. I can not connect to WPA2 wireless networks. I have SP3 installed, when I try to install the patches, it is said that I must not and will not let me. I tried to update my wireless card, Wireless Zero Configuration running and it still doesn't work.
Hello
XP SP3 is already compatible WPA2.
Have you checked that utility without the seller wire initial is not too active?
The card connects to open source Wireless and WPA - PSK protected?
Did you use the latest drivers from Dell?
