Dell Vostro Mic disappeared
Hi there, given that my computer is back to have a new hard drive and the general cleaning I don t seem to have a microphone. The computer is a Dell vostro 1700. This really happened about two years previously while my pc is under warranty and Dell support took control remote and fixed it. Now its happened again made, someone knows how to turn it back. I've been devices etc. and the mic option is it says Mic no line in and if I right click and uncheck the box or the other of the boxes he always says no detected Mic. So differently than before on the same computer I can't Skype my dad who lives abroad or something that needs a microphone. Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
Hello
My name is Larry and I work for social media and
Community team at Dell.
If the microphone was working fine before the HARD drive has been replaced and the operating system has been installed. Please check if the sound drivers are installed fine.
Line in option will be for an external mic. Right click on the sound on the taskbar icon, click on recording devices and checked if there is a detected internal mic.
Click the internal mic properties and ensure that the levels are to the max and start-up level too.
To check if the internal MIC is able to record. Click on Start - Programs - Accessories - sound recorder.
Click Start record and talk to see if she is able to save and try to play the recorded file and check.
If one doesn't work always not so micro internal is a failure and you can also check with an external mic.
Thank you & best regards

Hello, I'm trying to update windows after installation and I get error code 80072F8F. After looking for other pages, I checked my BIOS date and time are correct and Windows as well.
Laptop: Dell VOSTRO 1510
Windows 7 x 64 PROI already activated Windows (silly me to check everything actually works) and I need a solution as soon as POSSIBLE.
I needed Windows update to try and fix a number display adapter (card intel not giving not external display resolutions)- but that's another question.
I hope that there is a fix out there somewhere in the ether.

No anti-virus installed at the present time, no anti-spyware, no firewall.
Repost: What were the problems you are experiencing that you thought that a "new facility" could solve?
The foregoing notwithstanding, and since you neglected to install an antivirus application...
Personal data backup (which none should be considered 100% reliable at this point) then format the HARD disk and do a clean install of Windows. Please note that a repair installation (upgrade AKA on-site) won't fix this!
HOW to do a clean install of Vista: section "If you want to reinstall Windows Vista by running a new installation...". "of http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/Installing-and-reinstalling-Windows-Vista
Once installed the clean, you will have the equivalent of a "new computer" in order to take care of everything on the next page before connecting the machine to the internet or one local network (i.e. other computers) otherwise and before using a flash drive or the SD card that is not brand new, or has not been freshly formatted:

Dell Vostro 1520 / formatting now WiFi NOT work...
Hello
I formatted my Dell Vostro 1520 and now the wifi does not work, I get an exclamaition mark on my device manager...
Thanks in advance
When you perform a clean installation of Windows (which is what I assume you are talking about "formatted my Dell Vostro), you must reinstall all hardware drivers.
If you have used a method of restoration costs of factory Dell, then drivers for integrated hardware would have been included.
So...
If you used a CD to install Windows XP to do a clean install of windows AND your wifi adapter is built into your computer, go to the Dell Support, enter your Service tag, download drivers for your computer. Note: you must proceed even if your wifi adapter is not integrated into your computer, because you must install drivers for other devices on your computer.
If your wifi adapter is NOT integrated with your computer, visit the website of the manufacturer of the adapter, and download the appropriate driver.

Dear,
I have a problem with my laptop (dell vostro 1510). For the second time my screen went completely black. I couldn't see anything, but the computer was not working. I assumed it was for the same reason as the first time (burnt video card). I have replace it with it and when I try to start the laptop I just get three led among that flashes on the left. It is not go further and I don't have access to the bios. The diagnostic led codes say it is a problem with the processor. How can I test if the processor work? For me, it's weird with the old motherboard, it began. I also tried to reset the CPU on a different time slot. I don't know what to try anymore.
If you have any suggestions please let me know
Have a nice day

Why is upgrade Windows 10 - not Dell Vostro 3550 on the list of Dell?
I found this list on the Dell site that tells you if they tested a particular model for its ability to be upgraded to Windows 10. The Dell Vostro 3550 is not on the list of 20 Vostro models, some wearing low model numbers, some superiors. They will never test it?
If you try to upgrade, windows 10 copies files and then in the 2nd of three main sections of the upgrade (where you have this big circle in the middle of the screen), it just goes to a blank screen and then ceases all activity of the disc, and it becomes well hung. Of course, now the machine think operating system is win 10 and you cannot return to a recovery point 7 win. If you lost all of your data and applications and restore the image and then install the windows 7 208 updates and it takes like 8 hours total.
Looks like a similar problem that people with Vostro ranging from win 7 to win 8. Why not fix it.
Also, I fell into the same rabbit hole. But I realized quickly that it was a video problem and I hung on an alternative to the unit's LCD monitor... worked just fine, there has been able to do the update of bio and play with the drivers.
