• Problems encountered during the upgradation of windows7 for windows8 in my laptop Dell Inspiron 5520.

  I'm halfway to the upgradation of windows7 for windows8 in my laptop Dell Inspiron 5520. I wonder to uninstall software for USB 3.0, Dell stage, Bluetooth, ports etc. of windows7, citing compatibility problems. How do I proceed? Similar software will be installed during the process once I have finished installing windows8? Because now, my internet connection is through the USB data card. Please advice of emergency

  What I suggest you do is download Windows 8 and create a bootable on a Flash DRIVE or DVD you can do an offline installation. Although the wizard upgrade of Windows 8 is the first download before to actually copy the files.

  You can uninstall the proposed components that affect the download installation files.

• My Dell Inspiron 15R keeps freezing now after 15-30 minutes?

  I have a Dell Inspiron 15R a couple of months and now it keeps freezing after about 15-30 minutes. I can't do anything while it is frozen even not Ctr + Alt + Delete or move my mouse. It gets really frustrating because I always manually close my laptop. I scanned with Malwarebytes and security Eset, but Malware bytes is not found and I'm never able to complete the scan with Eset as my laptop freezes during this period. I checked the logs that Eset had done since my last scan and it said it deleted 5 threats it found, but my laptop still keeps freezing. I also tried the automatic "Microsoft Let Me Fixit" but he could not find anything. Please help I need an answer because I can't deal with this more!

  Thank you

  Hey,.

  I am looking for a couple of hours now, trying to find why my computer dell laptop isn't has the option of stereo mix as in any normal laptop, and really - I'm desperate!

  First of all, I tried to install the Realtek driver, which does not work. Looking all over the web, find a lot of dell without the stereo mix option, I finally found this topic.

  I think that there is no hope... but mabye, someone has already found a response. After all, how it is possible that dell WILL NOT SUPPORT stereo Mix Option?

  Please, read the section above before suggesting anything, because I tried also what appears there and could not find my solution.

  Thank you very much,

• Inspiron 5520 Headphone Jack does not work

  I have a Dell Inspiron 5520 and his works well, except the headphones does not work. I installed the drivers from the dell support site. also tested using the Dell Diagnostics utility, by pressing F12 and selecting from the menu, I don't see the 'custom' option which is indicated in this page (step 4):http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/laptop/f/3517/p/19351382/19768710.aspx

  the test turns on and at the end there is a radio button to test the Audio, which plays several tones through the laptop speakers. When I plug in the headphones, I have no sound in the headphones and more tones are played through speakers for computer only. Also I have heard no "instrumental piece of music complete with battery" according to step 2 in the above link.

  Is this a hardware problem? Please guide me further.

  Hi Technoraty,

  Whenever you connect the headphones to the computer, you should get a notification that the headset is connected. If the sound comes only through the internal speakers, the issue may be with the audio port. I suggest you to connect other headphones or external speakers and check. If the problem persists, hardware may need to be replaced.

  

  Please share the results so that I can help you further.

• Details of graphics card (5548) Dell Inspiron 15

  I recently bought a dell inspiron 15 (5548) and now im faced with somewhat misleading of the problem with the graphics card. Is - this m265 R7 or R7 m260?

  Latest drivers Dell show as m265, but the games stuck and completely non playable after the A06 bios update. Latest drivers from AMD say good race his m260 and games (ex: CS: go to 45-55 fps).

  Also when buying the guy from the dell store said m260 / m265 is a dedicated graphics card and this message says that it is not, rather, it is just a rendering engine. Thus, evrything goes through processor again and so on...

  Could someone sort this point for me coz its nowhere mentioned on the page of the product it's a converter card. Also when you guys will fix that issue drivers? It is 260 or 265 or just a problem of labelling? IM currently with AMD drivers and it just works.

  Idk it I can post my service here tag. Answer me if its ok.

  I need answers guys...

  The system uses the hybrid video controlled by software.  Only the Intel GPU has a connection to display - all passes video through it on its way to the screen, even if it was made by the AMD GPU.

  Virtually all systems of low - medium range now work this way.  If you need true GPU support, discreet, it is the province of high-end Alienware and Precision mobile workstations.   That's all as many competing systems from other manufacturers.
