Dell inspiron 1526

I recently had a problem with the computer that said that the hard drive was bad, send my computer to dell and says that the dvd player was bad and that the hard drive is fine. (after getting it back) I have run the dell diagnostic (reboot f12) I was surprise that the previous entry was always saying that, of course, this hard drive was bad. and it gives a code now I want to know if anyone knows about reset the dell Diagnostics so you can run it againg and know if the hard drive works fine.

    If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

    Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

  • How I've updated my BIOS on my computer laptop inspiron 1526 so I can use a purchased new battery

    How to switch my BIOS for my Dell Inspiron 1526 laptop so I can use the new battery I bought, no Dell?

    Hi Theresaframe,

    What operating system is installed on the computer?

    Procedures for updating the BIOS vary depending on the manufacturer. See the documentation provided with your computer or go to the website of the manufacturer of the computer.

    BIOS: Frequently asked questions
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/BIOS-frequently-asked-questions
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/BIOS-frequently-asked-questions

    http://www.Dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/19

    Note: BIOS change / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

  • Strange black screen problem Inspiron 1526

    Dell Inspiron 1526 - Windows Vista Home Premium (32 bit) - Service Pack 2 (problem started all with SP1) - AMD Turion (TM) 64 X 2 Mobile Technology TL-60 2.00 GHz - ATI Radeon X 1200 Series

    This is probably the strangest problem that I've never seen or heard of.  I've owned this phone for about a year and a half without any problem, then one day, I decided to put my computer into sleep mode by closing the lid (I've done several times before without problem.).  When I lifted the lid, the computer woke up, but the screen refused to show.  Thinking it was an easily solvable problem, I restarted the computer.  The computer turned on, but the screen was black.  After having turned the computer works enough times (probably 20), finally displayed screen and the error message say 'RTC Mode Fixed.  Date and time can be wrong. "I couldn't help but think"What the... ". "I ran into my share of issues of computer before, but nothing as weird as this.

    Assuming that everything was fine, I let the computer start normally and shortly after the BIOS, the computer screen suddenly turns off.  The only way I could get the boot sequence to pass the BIOS screen and start normally, I had to remove all the devices (including the power cord.)  After the computer has finally loaded completely, I was able to function normally.  Almost every time that I cut it however, the black screen problem happen again.

    A solution will be greatly appreciated.

    If you still experience the problem, or if you arrived after doing a search for the same problem with your Inspiron1526 (or other). The solution is to replace the CMOS battery. There was some problems with the connector of the screen becomes loose, but if reinstalling the display connector does not solve your problem, then the battery is dead.  The Mitsubishi CR2032 batteries from CHINA are down less than 1.5 volts in only 1-2 years. Looking at the battery that looks like they're a cheap copy of bootleg and probably not at all Mitsubishi. They all have the "Made In CHINA" stamp on the bottom edge. Unfortunately to get to the CMOS battery, you will need to disassemble the laptop computer entire almost to have access, but by replacing the bad battery with a reputable CR2032 3 v battery will solve the problem. After the first reboot, you need to give time for the BIOS to reconfigure and you need to reset the time system and date but the laptop will resume its normal operation after that.

    Unfortunately many calls to Dell technical service gave no help to this problem either. Technicians have even claimed to have no knowledge of what the CAPS and the blinking NUM LOCK lights meant. If you are lucky, you may be able to restart a couple times before the laptop doesn't start is not at all, but the time system must be reset - if this happened to you, it's a dead giveaway that the CMOS battery is about to fail. Once you hear the voltage of the battery drops to initial power engage readers and the fan will run for a few moments and then the unit will completely disable. Nothing appears on the screen.

    I'm looking for driver wifi for a Dell Inspiron 6000 running Windows 7, 32-bit. It's a Systems Conexant RD02-D110.

    Hello:

    We will have to try some creative things to get these devices to work because your laptop was not designed to run Vista or W7.

    First the graphics... Download and run this driver.  You will probably get an error not supported operating system.

    -Ray

    All,

    I have this SAME problem.  I just bought my m6 Pavilion three days previously and immediately noticed that the download speed is very slow.  In addition, a lot of things people recommend this site do take into account that the laptops are brand new, the parameters are already factory installation and things are not running in the background whenever we try to download.  And just like the original - poster I have my old laptop awkward, almost dead here and it's the things download 5 times faster than my new laptop.

    Also, I found another post online from a user in HP Pavilion, who bought a new laptop and this is the slow download.

    So taking all this into account, a PERSON LOGIC CAN CONSLUDE THAT THE PROBLEM IS WITH the computer PORTABLE PAVILION.  Yes, is there an employee HP mans this site who can lift this problem and come back with the official HP answer to why this problem occurs?  I will definiately go online and noted the low ratings sites flag if I don't get an adequate response.

    Have you thought about asking on a forum of Dell? You can get better answers.

    In the meantime, I would recommend a virus scan with Malwarebytes Antimalware. And if you provide a list of programs on your system, we might be able to give recommendations on what you can safely remove.

    More RAM might help. Go to Crucial.com and run their upgrade analysis tool. Who will tell if they have compatible memory and give you some suggested upgrade configurations.
