Dell Precision M6800 keyboard

I have a precision M6800 provided with unlighted keyboard. I would like to replace it with a keypad that is backlit. Can it be done? The existing keyboard has only three screws to remove. What would be the D/PN for a keyboard.

Hi @Elpidio,

Please write to Dell Community Forum!

At Dell, that we would not say the user to go ahead with the upgrade of light not back to back light because the connector that connects the keyboard to the system board is of a different type.

The cable that works with keyboard backlight is not compatible with the connector on the system board, which would require the replacement of the system board.

Hoping that it helps.

Kind regards

  • Precision M6800 video driver upgrade inquiry

    Hi all

    Well, I was finally able to upgrade my Vostro 3700. The Vostro was a good system, but it still ran hot. Dell has been kind enough to share my system with precision M6800. So far, I got the same EXCELLENT customer service with the number of calls on my Vostro overheating. With this new laptop, I think they have finally reached the mark, he is NOWHERE near as hot as the Vostro 3700 on idle and all playing games.

    That being said, I'm trying to update my video drivers. There is a 4600 Intel integrated with the Intel Core i5 processor and an AMD over-pants M6100. Both using PowerPlay to manage graphics cards. I already downloaded the Intel and AMD video drivers from the Dell Support Web site. There is a warning on the Dell AMD driver page advising that the Intel driver must be installed first. When I try to install the Intel driver, I get the following error message:

    ""This computer does not meet the minimum requirements for installing the software.".

    So now I must ask, what else do I need to install the latest drivers?

    I also downloaded the drivers of Intel provided site and he informed that I need to go through the manufacturer to obtain the latest drivers.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you

    @Ravi,

    Since the condition Dell drivers did not work, I went to Inte.com and AMD.com and downloaded both of their drivers for the Intel HD 4600 and the AMD over-pants M6100. I made sure that all video cards have been uninstalled and their drivers deleted, except for the GDIHOOKS which I was not sure.

    After a clean reboot, I started to install the Intel drivers, no complaint has provided the installer driver and installed without error. Restarted after installation. The screen change resolution to something more preferable and it seems to have worked very well. Suite on...

    Started website AMD over-pants AMD.com pilots. They have not also complain of mounted, etc. Installation took longer than expected because it is a larger set. It is installed without problem. Restarted. No other error and everything seems good.

    A test, I checked my energy saving settings. Maximum power on all saving battery related. Maximum performance on all associated Plugged In. Now, unlike before, when executing a pile, I get about 8-9 hours of battery life. Front when disconnected with the same power settings I received only about 2 hours. Plug the AC adapter in and launched Portal 2 with all its parameters back to the maximum with a resolution of 1600 x 900. Works very well. No delay, the graphic is great, works well.

    Thus, as it seems the site provided Dell.com drivers either have problems with this model and the BONES (M6800 Precision Mobile Workstation with Windows 7 64-bit), or they do not work properly.

    For anyone else who is curious, here are the links to the drivers I used:

  • Docking station for Dell Precision 7510

    I have Dell communities very recently joined after I buy the laptop Dell Precision 7510. It's a great product so far, but I want something better. I want more ports. A cradle to go with it is the obvious solution.

    What is the best laptop computer Dell Precision 7510-compatible docking station? My specific needs/setup:

    -2 external screens (D - sub / HDMI, or for £50 in addition, connection I get display-port), screens may be more in the future

    -internet cable high speed

    headphone/microphone

    -Sockets USB for mouse, keyboard, printer, scanner, external hard drives, etc.

    I presume that the Advanced E-port replicator is the best/most appropriate. I just want to be sure of that, because my laptop model (7510 precision) is still very new and not all information everywhere put on compatibility. I don't want to make a costly mistake. I travel and will not be able to "return" the products I buy.

    Yes. I contacted Dell sales... service and they told me that the Dell E-Port Plus II is compatible with my 7510 accuracy. After written confirmation, I advanced and bought a British supplier on Amazon for £100... but he came in a suspicious package and did not work well, and the adapter was the size of a brick (literally). I went back to Amazon... and tried my luck with Amazon Germany. You can get the original product on their part for about 140 euros, and it works perfectly. The link to the product:

    http://www.Amazon.co.UK/GP/product/B00A8ESOVA?PSC=1&redirect=true&ref_=od_aui_detailpages00

    (it's actually UK, now that I check it... it's that I bought and it's good)

    Basically, Dell has not updated its compatibility information yet. The docking station is listed in the check-out for precision 7510, but does not say specifically that it is compatible with this model. I had similar problems elsewhere too, as I want to install LoJack on my laptop, but can not find information about the question to know if my laptop model is supported by what is called the 'persistence technology' in the BIOS (which makes it impossible to uninstall LoJack even if you change hard drives).

  • Dell Precision M3800 does not illuminate

    I ordered a Dell Precision M3800 and as soon as I got it out of the box, he had immediately problems start. The button lights, the lights on the keyboard would turn on for a few seconds, then everything would be closed. It worked once in a while if I removed the power supply cord or if I tried different combinations of remove/insert the power cable and press the button. I took it into the shop and they replaced the motherboard and now it lights up at all. The assistance service said he turned on to them, but it turned on once for me after pressing the button + 20 times, but never turned back after that.

    I asked a replacement computer, but in the meantime, does anyone have any idea what the problem might be or how I can turn to recover my files.

    I got my M380 for about 8 months and this week started having the same problem. I found that remove my Logitech usb keyboard/mouse dongle wireless enabled at startup. Its got the last 2 days and both times I could do nothing to start. Both times I removed the USB dongle has started the next test. It's frustrating.

  • Additional memory for Dell Precision M4600

    Hello people, I need your help once more, my laptop is a Dell Precision M4600, come without webcam, dvd - rom, 2 x 2 GB ram, without fingerprint reader, intel core i5 - 2540M, the memory of two banks in the lower side works fine, two banks of memory under the keyboard come covered, I removed the cover and try to use , but when put memory in this Bank, the laptop does not work, power on but not the video, the witness of hard drive and wifi is turned on and battery is flashing. I am doing wrong?

    Thank you in advance.
    Daniel.

    Hi Daniel,.

    Precision M4600 memory configuration is based on the processor. All 4 memory (DIMM) slots will work if the computer has Intel Core i7 Quad Core or i7 Quad Extreme processors.

    Only 2 slots DIMM will work in configurations with processors Intel Core i5 or i7 Dual Core. Because your computer has processor i5 - 2540M, only the primary DIMM slots (bottom) can be used.

    Please come back for any clarification.

  • Dell Precision T3500 doesn't work and fans of becomes strong :(

    Hello

    My Dell Precision T3500 work not at all,

    When I run it, the CPU and the GPU fan fan becomes abnormally strong

    And nothing happens on the screen

    And I have this error (3-4) on the front of my case code
    in the user manual, this represents a failure of memory

    but I checked all components
    RAM-power - GPU - CPU
    It's all the worknig on my other computer Dell Precision

    I need help :(!

    If the memory is good, and the processor is good, after having tested on another machine, your motherboard needs to be replaced.  Part of the problem may be the processor slot or maybe it's the memory slot (because the first location NEEDS to be filled, it does not matter if the first location is only bad or if they all failed at the same time - if one does not work, no one else can be used)... whatever it is, the only difficulty you a new motherboard.

    If you cannot start your system, you can't Flash your BIOS.

    One last thing, you might try... Remove ALL (readers, cards, extension, mouse, keyboard, etc) the system except for the processor and a barrette of memory in the first place.

    Try another "last" thing... clear BIOS/memory NVRAM.  If there are no jumpers on the motherboard, and then disconnect the system, remove the battery, hold the power button for about 10 seconds, replace the battery, plug in and turn on.

  • x 8 connection distance MXI causes conflicts with my on my Dell Precision T3600 PCI slot

    Hi all

    The easiest to say is that I am migrating from a x 4 MXI explicit connection to an x 8 MXI express connection and when I do I get an error on the motherboard which is unable to load the single PCI slot.

    Error in WIn7 64 bit Device Manager reports a yellow exclamation point

    Device "Intel (r) 82801 PCI Bridge - 244 properties"

    The error listed in the device status box: "this device does not work properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31) »

    Unfortunately, I need this slot machine to run a card calendar to conjucton with PXI hardware. There is no anomaly when I used the x 4 connections with virtually the same loadout except for one Exchange a PXI-5122 (x 4 config) to SMU 5122 (x 8 config).

    If I leave the MXI PCIe card in but do not connect to chassis PCI slot SMU (and the fine card appear.)

    If I remove the PCI card into the slot, the error still occurs.

    I swapped the x 8 card and NVidia graphics card without success (the 16 x only two slots).

    I photographed the reader and removed the H310 Dell PERC RAID card and charged the RAID array RAID integrated Intel C600 and still no change.

    I have updated BIOS to A07 to latest A08.

    I updated the Intel Chipset at the latest on the Dell Web site.

    I guess that I just wonder at this point if someone is able to run a x 8 MXI express at SMU with a Dell Precision T3600, T5600 or a T7600 chassis.

    After much work by NI Applications Engineer Kyle K, this problem has been resolved.

    I'll post the solution to this PC dependent problem here, just in case it will help others in a similar situation.

    It seems that Dell sometimes uses one default BIOS quite restrictive on the number of PCI bus in these (and other). By allowing several PCI bus, you will be able to list all the devices in the sacrifice of some memory available for OS 32 bit running on 4 GB of RAM. No problem for me because I'm under 64 bit OS.

    Congratulations to Kyle even if he has not posted here yet for him give real congratulations.

  • Card PCI-6259 is compatible with the Dell Precision 390?

    Hi all

    I need help in answering this question.  I want to buy a better computer for my data PCI-6259 acquisition card.  I tried to search to see if the card is compatible with the PC and there's previous numbers with this set-up before other users.  Do you have a link to the list of the DAQ cards with tested PC configurations?  I want to just make sure that when I buy the computer, everything will work without problem because I only have one shot at this.

    Thanks to all in advance.

    Kind regards

    justdomechanicalengineering

    Hello

    We do not have a link to specific DAQ board/PC pairings, but the specifications for the Dell Precision 360 indicate that she has three ports PCI 5V which must be compatible with your PCI-6259.

  • Dell Precision T3500 speaker internal

    Hello

    I just installed an internal speaker in my Dell Precision T3500.  How to configure a Windows 10 system use this speaker?  The internal speaker made reference to the T3500 product documentation, but I have found no documentation on how to make it work.  I guess it's a cheap business speaker, so I know that the quality is not great.  I hope just to a few basic out of it sounds.

    Thanks in advance,

    Rob

    Until you install the OEM driver, it will not work. The oem driver install the ESP AUDIO Panel that "recognizes" the speaker.  The generic Microsoft driver does not support the internal speaker of business.

    AD198X and ANALOG Soundmax AUDIO must have AUDIO ESP to detect the speaker.

    ESP AUDIO Control Panel Soundmax Applet which 'sees' the speakers and the headphones etc plugged into the audio codec or NOT.

    The problem is that by default, windows 7 or 8 or 8.1 10 will use a generic HD Audio driver and therefore things like the internal affairs speaker will not work and soundmax Audio ESP does not exist.

    The solution is to install the Dell driver and let windows update to decide if the driver needs to update whql.

    It is a common problem.   The function Audio ESP asking you what is attached to the port is not enabled in generic win7, win8, pilot win10.  You will also need to install DOTNET 4.0 and Directx June 2010

    Before installing this driver.  You must also add the feature back for legacy Live Show on Control Panel.  If you do all the right things in the right order, it will work.  Control Panel, all the elements of the Control Panel, programs and features, windows features, turning on and outside

    Then do the check boxes.  You MUST BE online when you do this, because he lament not find features and who need to download them from windows update.

  • Dell Precision 7710 with NVIDIA Quadro M5000M problems with 3D WPF content

    I have a

    Dell Precision 7710

    6920HQ-i7 CPU @ 2.9 GHz

    32 GB of Ram

    Windows 7 Pro Sp1

    NVIDIA Quadro M5000M 369.49 driver version

    I bought an upgrade for my

    M6700 Precision

    Our company has developed and uses software that uses WPF to render 3D content in a XBAP in Internet Explorer.  When I try to use it on the 7710, 3D content flickers when it is redrawn, makes it almost unusable.  The stats we can get our application, we can see that time of update for refreshment / current is about 45ms, while on most of the other PC, even those using the integrated Intel graphics card, typically 12ms.

    We used this software on a large number of PC without feeling anything as bad, which is obviously quite disappointing because the laptop should be able to view we want to hassle.

    As far as I can tell all our drivers for everything on this laptop are up-to-date.

    We tried using the NVIDIA Control Panel to force the laptop to use the High Performance Nvidia Quadro rather than the graphics card integrated card and it seems to be made while we were able to do, it shows the icon in the taskbar notification and which showed that IE was using the Nvidia.

    I tried tweaking pretty much all other settings I can think / see.

    I tried to use the Dell Precision optimizer to select different profiles with no luck.  The Dell Precision optimizer seems not really demonstrate the use of the GPU processor or any other stats to see with the GPU, which seems odd to me.

    I ran Diagnostics on the laptop available on the Dell support site.

    I searched the net and found a few examples of problems with Nvidia and WPF cards, but none of these things that we found seems to apply to our application.  We have desktop computers at the office where he works well with other Nvidia cards / best of all.

    In addition, the fan on the 7710 will quite difficult sometimes - hard that I expect.  I tweaked the power settings to move less, but it always seems to run the fan more that I think it should / would appear on my M6700 - or maybe it's just a fan of stronger.

    So I wonder:

    If anyone out there has experienced something similar?  If so, any suggestions on how to fix or things to try would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    We solved the problem by making changes in our application software.  We still don't seem to be able to reach the same FPS as for the other GPU, which should be similar, but we're working on that also.  Perhaps because we are trying to run the application at 4K.  If anyone has a similar laptop and can provide details on the 3D graphics performance using any software comparative analysis, it would be great if they could share for comparison.

  • Dell Precision T3500 and SPDIF Port

    Hello

    I'm in the market for a new computer because my old HP died and I really like the Dell Precision T3500. I would like to put one of my old graphics card in the new Precision T3500, a Nvidia Geforce 8500 GT because it has a HDMI port on it and I want to drive my television station. However, have sound out of the HDMI on the Geforce port, you must connect an SPDIF cable on the Geforce to the SPDIF port on the motherboard. Is my question, there a SPDIF port somewhere on the motherboard in a Precision T3500? I looked but I have never seen a list of anywhere. Thank you very much for the help!

    Chris

    Hi Chris,

    Thanks for looking in the Precision T3500 computer next and we hope that you don't end up buying one!

    That said, I must not be the bearer of some bad news that this system is not equipped with an SPDIF port on the motherboard. A possible solution would be to buy a sound card has a SPDIF connection and then connect the graphics card to that. Of course, it would take one of your PCI/PCI-Express slots.

    I hope that answers your questions - if there is anything else, please let me know!
