Display of latitude D620 problems

I love my old machine. Keyboard and screen perfect for me.

But the LCD screen does not show anything. An external display shows nothing either.

Diagnostic mode does not show anything on the LCD screen. On the external display, it shows bands of color and then very strange looking for confusing things that means nothing to me.

Yes, I test the RAM on another machine and it's fine.

Pointers to what could be the problem? I'm pretty happy with the replacement of components.

This is probably a bad video chip - common if the system has a chip from nVidia.  The motherboard must be replaced.

If you are planning keep the system including a while, consider replacing the motherboard with an Intel video credit - you will need a new heat sink (one of the nVidia GPU does not have the Intel motherboard and vice versa).

  • Bluetooth, Windows 7 and a Dell Latitude D620 problem

    Hello Microsoft,

    I scanned the internet, Microsoft KBs, and many of the forums and the SIGs. Nothing worked from suggestions made by MSFT people.

    My problem is this: I have a MS Bluetooth Notebook Mouse 5000 that I was not able to match, much less to do with my laptop. Even for a PDA to BT, BT cell and another mouse MS BT.

    The laptop is dual-boot with XP Pro SP3 and Win7 32-bit Enterprise.
    The mouse is seen and usable under the XP boot. Three other BT devices work well with XP on this laptop. When you try to add the device in Win7, I get nothing. The dialoge Watch window it is looking, but no device appears. I checked that the devices are configured to be open and ready for pairing on the mouse and other devices that I run on XP.

    I tried the things:
    -Check the device in the devices, Win7 installation manager, is Dell Wireless 350 Bluetooth Module, provider of CSR plc, date 06/11/2006 driver, driver version is 1.0.0.370 and signed by Microsoft.
    -Check the device in Device Manager, is Microsoft Bluetooth Enumerator, provider is Microsoft, 06/21/2006 driver date is, the driver version is 6.1.7600.16385, signed by Microsoft.
    -The parameters of the Bluetooth application on the taskbar, there the box "Allow Bluetooth devices to find this computer" checked in the Options tab.
    -L' material tab for the application settings Bluetooth indicates that the device is functioning properly.
    -L' devices Control Panel app Bluetooth does not appear in Control Panel.
    -J' went to the Microsoft Support site and downloaded and installed the IntelliPoint application without modification.
    -J' downloaded and installed (after removing the proevious version) of the module drivers and IntelliPoint app as a normal installation and in compatibility mode for Vista 32 bit.
    -J' tried the Module 360 drivers in native mode and compatibility.
    -The module drivers came directly from the Dell site.

    My network card (with BT) is the Dell Wireless 1505 Draft 802.11n WLAN Mini Card, Broadcom, driver date 21/08/2009, version of the driver 5.60.18.8, signed by Microsoft.
    -Collaboration Bluetooth is set to Auto.

    I read in this forum that Win7 RC1 and RC2 version did not have this problem.

    What I want is for Microsoft to provide the fix for this problem and not to redirect the question to drivers (who are MS).

    All my stuff works in XP.
    It also works on Vista Home (mobile friends).

    Please provide a fix and take responsibility.

    Thank you

    Toshiba BT Stack will fix the problem on your dell D620, I have a D620 with Windows 7 32 bit and could not use (enable) Bluetooth, after I ran this:

    I was very happy to have my BT back.

  • Latitude D620 and Windows 10

    Will Dell releasing the NVIDIA updated drivers for this laptop plus compatible with Windows 10.  The pilots of the stocks in the pre-release version of Windows do not support a low resolution.

    I know this is an older laptop, but it works very well and is always quick and current.

    I bet it's the 64-bit version that is the problem... I have nine computers and eight of the nine that I've successfully upgraded to Windows 10 32 - bit (Some Home and some Pro)... I stayed in the world of 32-bit and I'm glad I did... I have no reason to go to more than 32-bit 4 GB of RAM (3.2 to 3.5 depending on the system) is very well what I do... I'm not a gamer I don't need a video card super uber (all my video cards are 512 MB of ram)... And most of the applications are still 32-bit only. Tests were conducted on the same computers comparing 32-bit and 64-bit, and only a few applications (Photo/video editing, etc.) are significantly faster with 64 bit. For most 32-bit is fine, but the industry has been pushing 64-bit heavy for these past years (for really no good reason for most users).

    I was actually upgraded the Latitude D620 about two weeks ago and had tried a different video driver then but this morning she appeared in my head I tried the wrong video driver (my card in my D620 is a NVidia card)...

    When I downloaded the Vista 32-bit driver Nvidia today he immediately installed. Now, I again have a nice resolution... EVERYTHING in my D620 works with no exclamation point in Device Manager.

    My D620 is on 24/7 365 days a year running my weather station software downloading on the Internet around the clock. I bought there are almost 4 years used for about $120... good enough dealio...

    I have only a laptop that has not managed to install Windows 10 (Fujitsu Lifebook A6120)... Even not to keep anything saying it can't install... She may be destined to remain Windows 7... all my computers, with the exception of a Winbook (also improved to win 10 Windows 8.1) are at least five years or more... And all are running Windows 10 32-bit Home or Pro with no problems.

    Refer to the issue of having not to reduce, enlarge, close buttons on applications using the Nvidia of Vista 32 bit on Latitude D620 driver... I realized after I posted that it is easy to close applications... You just point down to the taskbar of the application and the small window appears in the taskbar indicating your APP... This window has a big RED X to close the APP... That is how close the applications easily. And like I said is that the APPS that have missing buttons... Normal PC applications buttons are there very well... So it seems that my DELL D620 will continue on and on and if I have a failure I'll pick up just another D620 used for cheap...

    If you absolutely do not need 64-bit (and I can't imagine why anyone would need 64-bit on D620 I would reinstall Windows 32-bit 10 and see how you (should go well and to enter the 32-bit driver for Vista for the D620 leave the Dell Web site...) SEE YOU SOON!

  • Windows 8 for latitude d620

    Hello

    Ive got the latitude d620 computer, it works under xp pro, ive requested clarification on the execution of 7 on it, and you guys said it might be done.ive just read about windows 8 and put other than the fact its going to be a radical change, seems, it will not take much space on computers (im sure that's what I read) , according to me, he also says that it would be universally available from microsoft for about $40 to download from one site, so could this be the way to go, when xps supports drys, could someone tell me if it is a good idea, if it works john etc.

    I have Windows 8 preview of consumption running very well on a Latitude D820 is essentially the same machine with a larger screen, you should have no problem upgrade to 8.

  • Latitude D620: what can I improve screen resolution?

    HI: I have a Latitude D620, which I like a lot, but now I want to edit photos. The max screen resolution is only 1024 x 768? The display is a non - PNP monitor generic standard VGA graphic adapter. Is it possible to improve the resolution of my screen with the new software, drivers or hardware? Thank you!

    -Charles

    Hello Charles,

    Thanks for writing on the Dell Community Forum. Here, I wish to inform that the display resolution maximum supported by the LCD is 280 x 800 WXGA. But the when a monitor no PNP is attached the resolution depends on the monitor, the type of connector used and to some extent the graphics card.

    I would ask provide you the model of monitor and maintain the label of the system (by private message) so that I can look into the details of the system to help you best.

    I hope this helps. Write us if you have any questions we will be happy to help you.

    Have a nice day ahead!

    Hello
    I don't have a model satellite pro 6000. PS600E-01NYE-FR
    1 GHz P3, 20 GB HDD, wireless bluetooth not running XP

    I understand that it is an old laptop but had been treated with great care because I got it.
    My problem is the following;

    Startup of the laptop is a route very well, but for some reason together and after no set amount of time the display fails
    a wot is visible on-screen is hundreds of tiny colored blocks, sometimes random horizontal lines
    but nothing is readable, at all.

    I tried to run a yellow one also using the video output external monitor, all appear the same.
    a computer display (although I can't check it out) to freeze.

    I replaced the heatsink fan as a precaution (using the new dough)
    the only solution I can find is replaced the ram with
    2 x 256 MB Sync 133 mHz module Samsung. This could be the problem or can anyone shed some light on this for me.

    Thanks in advance
    Display Toshiba SP6000 (?) Problem

    I am not a technician, but I assume that there is probably a problem with the video card. I'm afraid there is not much to do. You should contact the service and make them run tests to verify the functionality of the video card. If the card is faulty, just replacement will help.

  • Dell Latitude D620 processor update...

    Hi all, great forum you have here...

    I have an old Dell Latitude D620 and I want to upgrade the processor.  The specifications are the following:

    • Intel Core 2 Duo T5500 (1.66 GHz) CPU
    • 2 GB RAM DDR2-800
    • 60GB OCZ Vertex 2 SSD
    • Windows 7 Professional

    Am I correct in thinking that I can go to any processor 667 Mhz FSB?  SO what would be the fastest processor I can get (I think Core 2 Duo 7400 and 7600)?

    Looking at the Intel 845 chipset GM compatible products (http://ark.intel.com/products/chipsets/22816) that they do, but I thought I'd better check here first before buying.  Change from 2 MB to 4 MB L2 cache would affect something?

    Thank you very much!

  • How to activate Bluetooth adapter Dell Latitude D620?

    I tried unsuccessfully for weeks how to activate the Bluetooth adapter (switch on Bluetooth radio) on my Dell Latitude D620.

    First the Latitude D620 built in Bluetooth adapter? I did a search on the web, and it seems that it does. Also, I see a Bluetooth symbol just above my keyboard, but it is not lighted. How do I turn it on?

    I went to control panel, device-> maps network manager, but I do not see the Bluetooth devices listed there.

    I need to install a software? I went on the support.dell.com site and downloaded the Dell Wireless 350 Bluetooth internal Module driver installation program. But when I install it, it is trying to install the Vista profile Pack, and it fails because it 'impossible to find compatible bluetooth on your system chip' and 'DFU installation failed with returncode 137 ".

    Really hope someone can help me. Thank you.

    If still looking for the answer, that I just found out myself...

    The BIOS, under the Wireless heading, is where you put the Bluetooth radio on and outside. At least on the Latitude D620 D630.

    The big surprise is that you (apparently) can enable it in the BIOS, even if there is NO INSTALLATION of CARD BLUETOOTH!

    The cardspace bluetooth is on the far left under the bezel above the keyboard. pop up the extreme right and carefully lift the bezel to see if you have the card installed.

    It was an option, not the equipment standard.

    I have a laptop Dell Latitude D620 with a CD RW/DVD-ROM drive.  I need to upgrade the drive to write to DVD-R media.  I spent much of today searching Dell parts and accessories to try to determine what he should order and have found it very confusing.  It seems that there is not a listed player expressly says that it is compatible with a D620.  There are readers who say they are compatible and D600 D610 and then there's a reader who says that it is compatible with a D630, but nothing for a D620.  One of these readers will work in a D620.


  • Adapter Dell Latitude D620 WiFi network card problem

    Hello

    I have a previous post that I made a mistake on assignment to the audio from the laptop, so I'll be back to ask what I can do to solve the problem. It was previously owned and I bought refurbished from Amazon. It was the XP but now has win 7 pro. My unit is 32-bit. I started having problems with the wireless card with six months ago. I replaced the card with the recommended legal replacement. I downloaded the correct drivers (or at least that which applied for 32 bit, same drivers Vista just in case). I downloaded all the drivers and even those who would deal with the problem. I tried and exhausted all other avenues you can imagine. I'd be more than happy to provide news service as well as any other exhibit in nature tag to ensure that this laptop is not stolen, and I am extremely satisfied with this prouduct and cannot afford to replace it at this time.

    Two of the problems are that the old 3945 ABG will no longer display with led WiFi when I reinstalled it, and used to install drivers for the new ABG 4965. My laptop recognizes the 4965, but impossible to install the drivers. I was warned that there was a problem in installing these drivers.  What I am doing wrong? ATI Intel Device Driver Update Utility installed on the laptop as well, but cannot connect to my internet connection to get the appropriate drivers, or diagnose any additional problems in nature.

    I downloaded the two sets, for win xp and win 7 32 and 64 bits, the two just in case, and none works. Can you please provide me with the correct drivers necessary?  I use a tablet to communicate with you at home and allows you to download the drivers for a USB WiFi public key. It is perhaps part of the problem, but I have no other right of appeal. You can provide me with any assistance would be most welcomed and greatly appreciated.

    Warm greetings,

    J.J.

    You have installed the new wireless card, making sure that the antennas were attached? Have you tried this driver for Windows 7?
