• Dell Inspiron 17R will not start

  Hey,.

  My Dell Inspiron 17R laptop 5720 was working fine until today, she won't start now. I had a virus, but Avira seemed to clean it properly, so I thought everything is ok now, but after restarting my laptop I didn't even have the "Dell" screen more. I've been Googling this topic for hours, but no one seems to have this kind of problem. Most of the users get stuck after the POST screen, but I don't yet get there. I just press the power button and that's it - laptop starts, but doesn't show anything. 1 out of 10 times, I managed to start and it works perfectly, even restart Windows it works then, but once disable us it probably will start again for the next 7-8 attempts.

  Things I've tried:

  -Remove the battery, hold the power button / stop for 60 seconds

  -In the course of running Dell Diagnostics (regular and thorough mode) test - it detects no error

  -Commissioning with or without battery

  -Flashing of BIOS (A14)

  -Reinstalling Windows, even tried Linux

  -Remove the strips of memory, trying to start with one stick (I had 2 x 4 GB) - will not change anything

  It looks like a problem that does occur from time to time. It is a hardware or a software problem? Is there anything else I should try before sending it for repair?

  Thanks in advance!

  Hi randomthings,

  I appreciate for all stages of misjudged shootings.

  I recommend you to disconnect all external devices. Turn on the system and check if there are codes of beeps at startup.

  Given that the system turns after several attempts, it may be due to poor nutrition or inadequate food, bad drive HARD or other hardware problem.

  A poor, distressed or inadequate diet is often the cause of this problem. If the hard disk does not have enough power during the first time the computer starts, it will not be able to spin the platters of hard drive fast enough to start the computer. However, if you restart the computer, two, three, or four times, because the platters spin already, he is able to get the drive to speed and able to boot from the disc. Try with an AC adapter / CC known good and control; If the problem continues, I suspect it is a HDD failure.

  Please, remove the HARD drive and turn on the system and check the status.

  Please find the manual for Inspiron 5720 in the following link:

• Dell Inspiron 17 - will not start - get hard disk clicking noise

  I am able to boot up the laptop to the BIOS (F2) and the laptop passes all diagnostics - I upgraded from Windows 8 to 10 Windows about 6 months ago and everything has been great to work - no problem at all.  Then a month ago started the problem of loud noise clicking.

  Here is my problem laptop > I start pressing the power on button - I can hear the fan start - power and the drive light - but one or two seconds later, the drive LED turns off and it's the disk hard clicking noise starts.  I have to then press and hold the power button until the laptop stops.  I can hear the stop of the fan and Park disk heads - then all the lights will turn off.  Then I have to start this process all over again [sometimes more than 8 to 10 times] until the laptop finally gets up and allows me to connect.

  Nobody knows what will fix this problem?

  Hi FAYEDC,

  Please write to the Dell Community Forum.

  Please try to run Dell diagnostics onboard and capture messages or error codes.

  If we can verify with another hard drive?

  Please private message us the serial number of the system as well as your login email.

• Door drive DVD/CD of Dell Inspiron 530 will not be closed

  I was in the middle of installation 3 disks of a game, when on the open disc 3, the door kept popping back.  Thought it was a bad drive maybe, so I tried another disc, same problem.  haven't tried any disc, same problem.  I restarted, in the remake, he closed the door, but then reopened it upward once in operation.  It will not be closed the door.  I have to take out them and put it back in or is it turned and I need a new?  It came OEM with the machine, says he works correctly in Device Manager.  in properties, he says that's DVD + RW DH 16 - W15 aPBDS.  If I need a new, where I can go to the web to find what I need?

  Thank you.

  Hey well, good news! Before I decided to replace it, I thought that 'let me play with him' and open the computer and tried to get out.  Well, I got all the cancelled screws and plugs disconnected, but I couldn't drag him completely out of the slot, I tried several times without success.  He would slide approximately 1/2 in. and then stop.  So I gave up, he slipped into place, screwed it back in, plugged everything back in and voila, it works!  I don't know what was going on.  There was a strip of clear band they put on the machines when they send their, a thin strip through the logo Dell Isnpiron on top of the drive with a shot to the back corner, maybe the edge of the door that was contagious?  I pulled it off.  No matter what.  It works, thank the Lord.  But out of curiosity, how one removes this player?  I couldn't go out for the life of me.

• My Dell Inspiron 530 will not light

  The computer has been like that for a while now. When I have the power cable connected to the back of the computer the Green underside is on so I don't know if it means that something is supposed to happen. When I opened the computer there is a yellow light as well. But when I hit the power button to turn on nothing happens, fans did not move at all. And if I remember when I opened the computer there was a few stray wires disconnected, I tried for about 10 minutes around the motherboard to find that these cards could go on. I have found none. I followed a cord in the back and he went into the motherboard and fan and another went in a box (where the power cord goes into the back). These cords may not be connected when the computer still worked well, I'm not entirely sure about this. I don't have a lot of money to replace the points and I did well in computer science and more telling me instructions on what to do.

  peterfaix

  Absolutely nothing happens when I press the power button. The yellow light on the motherboard is immediately, without flashing what so ever. And when I said the green light is the I meant right where you plug in the power cord. It's on and stays green as well. No flicker.

  peterfaix
      
  As the power light button does not lite, better to replace the power supply first, as you need a diet 'known' work to check the system and motherboard.
  
  As you have a mini-tower 530 standard ATX power supply units can be installed, with a 24-pin or 20 + power connector 4-pin main motherboard, with or without the on/off switch.

  You should be able to buy a compatible power supply either a local computer or online store.

  Note: A power supply with four SATA power connectors, is necessary.

• Windows VISTA Home Prem on DELL Inspiron 1521 will not start

  Read the message below. It has been copied from another thread and the poster has been informed to start a new thread with his question. What is ironic, is that I have exactly the same problem on my Dell.

  After downloading some updates to Vista my Dell desktop computer restarted and tried to load step 3 updates, it moves very quickly from 0% to 100% and then restarts, only to go back into the same loop of trying to set up step 3 and restart.

  I tried the following, starting in safe mode, same results updates are trying to configure.

  Auto repair, I am told by a message, it cannot be repaired.

  System Restore, I have only 2 system shown to restore points and they are at the time of the upgrade, if I try these points to restore I get an error message.

  I tried to reboot from the original installation provided CD but all I get is 'windows is copying files', then a black screen.

  I tried the boot iso but neosoft option again to the message windows is to copy the files, and then the black screen.

  I'm in thr stage where I can not think of anything else other that to go to a data recovery specialist, to recover the files most important (have over 200 GB of various things on the hard disk) and then reset to factory settings and load data and try and find the sources of all the programs that I had. It looks like an enormous task and it is the main computer for my business. If a kind soul has suggestions as to how I can get this situation somehow, I would be eternally grateful.

  Thanks in advance

  I'm fairly warned to get to a point to get my data before a complete reconstruction, however, I give that easy. Anyone else having this problem. I'd really like to find a way to solve.

  I suggest to remove the battery and connect the laptop to AC power and then try to start the computer to see if the problem is with the battery.

  I suggest you to contact Dell support on the issue, as this can be a hardware problem.

• Reader of CD/DVD of Dell Inspiron 620 will not be open.

  Original title: DVD/CD does not open

  The other day I tried to burn a disc, something was wrong and the cd/dvd will not open. I used all of the stem to remove the CD. Now it says an error occurred while ejecting ' DVD RW drive (d). I uninstalled and reinstalled the drive, and made sure my drivers are up to date, they are, same problem. I need major help.

  FYI: I don't know if this means anything but I have a Dell Inspiron 620.

  The other day I tried to burn a disc, something was wrong and the cd/dvd will not open. I used all of the stem to remove the CD. Now it says an error occurred while ejecting ' DVD RW drive (d). I uninstalled and reinstalled the drive, and made sure my drivers are up to date, they are, same problem. I need major help.

  Whenever the CD/DVD cannot be purchased, it is longer practice of using the average pin hole. But this should be done when the computer is turned off as ejection outwardly replaces the internal control of the drive. Therefore, it is very likely that the problem arises.
  You can try this:
  Restart the PC-> press F2 when you see the Dell logo-> control if the drive is displayed in the summary of the BIOS settings screen. If this is not present, contact Dell support - the drive must be replaced.
  If it is present, try to press the eject button to see if the come out. If so, leave the BIOS settings, start Windows and check. The drivers will be installed by Windows in most of the cases, and if not, you can download it from Dell from the link mentioned by Manasa Sirahatti. In addition, if you use third-party programs to burn the disc, try to uninstall it and check. If it works, and then reinstall the program.
  The problem will be solved in most cases, otherwise, the disc must be replaced.

• (Redirected) Dell Inspiron N5110 does not start

  Hi, my laptop Dell Inspiron N5110 is now 3 years old. I recently had a hard drive fail, then replaced by a new. Now the machine does not start. I have a boot disk in the DVD player that swirls, but gets no further. I get also is no longer the screen Dell displays (before the windows one). In fact, everything is empty. I tried to remove the power supply by battery pack and power holding down the button for 1 minute then re - again no difference. Is there anything else I can do or is the death machine?

• Dell XPS 12 - will not start / turns on after hard reset

  Last night I was with my XPS w12 in laptop mode on battery and he finally went down to 7% of the capacity.  At this point, it turns off the display and I moved my office to connect the power adapter (thinking it would simply turn the display when there was enough power...  The screen never came back (I waited 15-20 minutes), but the battery has been recharged.  At that time, I tried a hard reset by holding the power button for 5 to 10 seconds.

  When I tried to turn it on, nothing happened.  No backlit keyboard, no screen, just the fan.  The light never came the switch either. So I tried an another hard reset with the same results.  I even tried to turn it on with the "D" button held down for on board diagnostics and got nothing more than the start of the fan.

  I thought it might be an overheating problem, so I let it set for an hour and tried again - none other than the fan. It seems that the laptop does not pass the initial diagnosis and not even up to the point where the bios starts to load.

  I really thought that my cell phone was dead and ready for use.  I took it in the office the next day so I could call Dell Support Pro. Just for fun, I plugged with the AC adapter and tried to turn it on - viola!  It started working again.

  I had this problem once before, and he began to work after 2-3 resets hard. I was working on a proposal when the laptop went down. I tried reset hard over a period of 4 hours with no result. It baffles me why it start OK the next day morning.

  I was wondering if anyone else has had the same problem.  I am running the A07 BIOS (the most common) and my 12 XPS is configured with 8 GB of memory and 256 GB SSD with an i7 and Intel wireless card.

  Any suggestions on this diagnosis? The hardest part is then if fails, the failure is total - you are unable to diagnosis. When she comes back, all right, and there is than any event in the event log that relate to the failure.

  OK - I narrowed down it to the following:

  When the laptop is "asleep", it will finally in power mode. It seems that connect a power adapter for the laptop at this point will enter a State of confusion, when the button is pressed, the laptop fan turns on but no light on the power button or on the keyboard – the screen remains blank.  Laptop fan works (it is very quiet - he must hold the phone to your ear to hear it).

  I don't know if the cause is a low battery or if the issue is simply with the State of the CPU to power down.  All I know is that when it happens, if I disconnect the power adapter and press and hold the power button until the fan of the laptop turns off, the hard reset allows him to come back normally.  If you leave the adapter attached, it will charge the battery but will not allow the laptop start.

  I said this experiment several times with the same result every time. I'm guessing that there is a bug in the BIOS that defines an error state that are resolved with the associated power Board. Do the hard reset without the adapter seems reliable to fix the problem.

• (Redirected) Aurora will not start 5 beeps repeatedly sounds

  Hi guys,.

  I encountered a small problem, at startup, that my Alienware Aurora R4 does not start. The screen is often black and is never the whole part of BIOS and the computer gives 5 clear "beeps" followed by a short break. (This is repeated).

  I don't know what is the question, but I read that it was possibly due to a hardware failure or something. You guys could help me please? I'm going to the United States for a short time, so excuse me if I am not able to respond instantly.

• Satellite A65 will not start and I get only the blue screen!

  When I start my satellite A65 a blue screen comes up saying "a problem has been detected and windows has shut down to prevent damage to your computer.
  It says to check if I have enough disk space or to disable or update the driver, if a pilot has been mentioned in the stop message... or to check the updates to the bios...
  I can type everything that said if I need, but the jist

  The world is - that sound familiar at all?
  It may be because I was not updated enough when he told me to.
  It does not start, not even on safe mode, and it won't let me not restore, which I would be perfectly willing to do at this point.

  help, please
  Joly

  Hello

  The blue screen of death usually occurs because of the serious software problem or due to malfunction of the equipment.
  In your case, it looks more like something wrong with the hardware. Why, because you're not able to restore the laptop from the recovery CD Toshiba delivered!

  Need buddy? I think that the laptop should be verified.
  Try to contact an ASP in your country and ask for later handling.

  Good luck

  Have you changed the boot order to use disk recovery/s?

  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

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  If the recovery discs are still not working, you will need to contact the manufacturer of the computer.

  This isn't their recovery process, Microsoft.

  See you soon.
