Dell Inspiron 3148/3158 PXE Boot

Hello

We just received two new laptops from dell model as an older model parts are no longer available. We tried to imagine the WDS devices. We tried using the legacy startup options both uefi but none worked. It doesn't seem to be a boot uefi for the network boot option. When you try to run the legacy with secure boot startup option off it is just there and don't do anything.

The bios versions

Inspiron 3158: 01.00.00 or 01.05.00

Inspiron 3148: A06 and A07

Help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Just in case anyone else had this problem, perform a pxe inherited boot does not work, you need until the bios update

WS - 01.07.00 which gives you the possibility to activate the network of stacking for UEFI BIOS.

    Do not safe mode with network. It will try to load too many drivers.

    Try mode safe mode with command prompt since it will charge just a necessary drivers. If it does, you can try the above commands.

    Why you want to reinstall your PC? It could be that you don't need to reinstall Windows, and solutions you could solve, which is recommended.

    However, if you want to reinstall your Windows, it's NOT F8, F8 key belongs to Windows and he'll fix the problems. To reinstall Windows, you must use differently for Dell steps:

    Yes, the motherboard is a replaceable part and can cost $100 +, as well as S & H, these motherboards are generally used, alias "renovated".

    But, if the motherboard needs to be replaced, before you buy, check the cost of the purchase of a computer, nine or of occasion.

    Hello

    I'm assuming that Ubuntu is the only OS installed on the computer, and you have a XP install disc.

    The hard disk must be erased all traces of the file system,

    Download and burn to cd Darik Boot and Nuke. Start and wipe the drive hard when you are finished it will appear for XP like a new hard drive.

  • Dell Inspiron does not fully start

    I have a Dell Inspiron 530 s with Windows Vista Home Basic. Last fall I had restored it and after that, it worked perfectly until about 2 months ago. After that I turned on the computer, it goes to the Dell logo, as usual, and then after that, it gives me a message saying press F1 to continue. I would tap it, then he would show a black screen with a flashing underscore. After a while it would not boot as usual. Recently, when underscore no longer blinks, he asked no longer to start as usual. It gives me a message saying that no boot device is discoverable and press ENTER to try again. I'll enter, but the same message arrives. I'll have to then turn off and on and keep pressing F1 until she FINALLY begins. With the changeover days, it takes more time and more time so that it can start and enter the Windows logo. I'm afraid that one day, it just won't start. I tried and tried looking for my problem but I don't know what it is. One popular response that came was my CMOS battery may go dead. So, I went and bought this past weekend. That didn't solve it. It still does start all the way. I also can't access the Menu ahead of time by pressing F8. I notice that rarely my computer will lead me to the Boot Manager to start upward on its own and from there I can start Windows normally and it starts without a problem. But I don't know how get you to this page manually. By pressing the bar space does not either. If I keep just press these keys, my computer makes a noise clicking / beep and nothing more. I was also wondering if a restore factory could get rid of this problem and make it again fresh. But again, one of the conditions for a factory restore is to disable and press F8 for Advanced Options and he won't be on the menu for me. So I'm stuck pretty well.

    Overall, my problem is that my computer initializes more normally. I have to keep turning market until he finally gives in which case it can take hours. I desperately need help. I hope that I was fairly accurate. My computer is no longer under warranty and I can't afford any premium or other security package. Please, it's my only computer, and that's all what I have to work with. Thank you.

    Hello

    A computer is supposed to make a single "beep" at startup.

    If that in fact more than one, this indicates a hardware problem.

    You will need to go to the Dell website and know what BIOS that you have in your computer model.

    Then check in these links 'beep' error codes know what hardware has problems.
