• Dell Inspiron 1525 Webcam not working do not... Help!

  I have a dell inspiron 1525 and having a problem with the integrated webcam. The webcam suddenly stops working. Whenever I start Dell Webcam Manager or Webcam Center, I see the blue light but no picture on the screen. It does not work in Yahoo Messenger. I checked the Device Manager, but seems to be no problem. I tried to restore the factory setting but still no luck. I also tried to uninstall and reinstall all software related and driver. Also tried to plug a USB mouse as other advice forums but still does not. Can someone please... Thank you very much...

• Dell Inspiron 1525 Microphone does not

  I have a Dell Inspiron 1525 with a built-in microphone. I run on vista. The microphone is not picking up my voice. I went to the control panel. I have made sure it is activated, and all volumes are rising. It is said that SigmaTel Microphone Array works, but that's not true. I also uninstalled and then reinstalled the SigmaTel driver. I did a system restore and that didn't help. The speech recognition does not pick up my voice either. All other sounds work fine, I built in Webcam which works very well, except for the record. But who is also defined on such sigma with all volumes upward. I've had this computer for over a year and the microphone used to work, I think that when I updated something she decided to not work. But I really need my microphone to work, and I am really frustrated because I can't use it. ANY advice would be appreciated thanks!

  Hello

  Control Panel - SOUNDS - Audio peripheral devices configuration-manager

  Make sure you write down the description and model double click top - tab drivers - write version. Now
  Click on update drivers who cannot do anything like MS is far behind the certification of drivers. Then RIGHT
  CLICK above and UNINSTALL - REBOOT - this will rebuild the driver stack.

  If your driver shows 06 you have the default windows and part of the question.

  Go to the system manufacturer's website and get the latest Audio/Sound drivers - download - SAVE - go to the place where you
  Put them - right click on Reboot - RUN AS ADMIN -.

  Check the Version on the tab of the driver in the device as a sound Manager often restoring drivers, then install
  the current version. Restart and check after each try, not uncommon to have to run the pilot of 1 to 4 times or more.
  Just make sure that the version you have installed appears in the tab of the driver.

  Then navigate to the site of the manufacturer of the device and search for the drivers more recent and repeat the installation procedure.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  After the updated driver.

  Click with the right button on the speaker near clock - recorders - right click in the box - check show disconnected devices
  and show disabled devices - check your micro - highlight them, then lower right properties. Do
  of course the appropriate injector is enabled and check that other settings - on the levels tab make sure MUTE is not checked
  and APPLY / OK changes.

  Also in the search for some Audio Manager Panel (perhaps named after the manufacturer of the sound driver). Mine
  is the RealTek Audio Manager, yours can be quite different name if you have one.

• How to install all the drivers that I need for my dell inspiron 1525 when I can't get on the internet?

  I have a dell inspiron 1525 with windows xp sp 2 on it and I had to wipe and reinstall xp on it b/c I got the BSOD. Now, I can not configure a network connection, or get all the drivers that I need and I can't go on the internet. Is it possible to use another computer to get the drivers I need for this? Do you need a specific driver to even set up a network connection?

  AngelaGraves,

  The drivers you need are on your disk drivers that came with your computer.

  If you do not have the drivers disk, you can download the drivers from Dell drivers & downloads, then copy on a USB key or drive and install from there.

• Turn off the tap to click on Dell Inspiron 1525 with Windows Vista

  Can someone tell me how to disable "tap to click" on the touchpad of my laptop?

  I have a Dell Inspiron 1525, running Windows Vista.  It's the standard touchpad I mind, it has not been upgraded.

  Other forums have suggested to go to the control panel > hardware and sound > mouse, but once I'm there, I only "buttons," "Pointers," "Pointer Options" and "hardware".  There is no option to disable "Tap to click" referred to one of them.

  I've updated all the drivers - Windows tells me I have the latest version, if this doesn't fix the problem.

  My hands are too big to type without hitting the touchpad!  So frustrating.  I accidentally moved my slider three times during the composition of this post.  Someone help me please!  That's four times now.

  I thought about it!

  Under computer > C: > drivers > entry > R176423, I ran DPInst.  He installed the Dell Touchpad option in my taskbar to bottom left.  After the reboot, I was able to open a more in-depth version of my touchpad, where I could uncheck "Tap to click".  _ Yes!

  Thanks for all your help, man.  I really appreciate it.  It's really a positive manifestation of the human condition when the volunteers their expertise selflessly to help others.  Keep up the good work, and I hope that this thread will stay up to help someone else in the future.

• Unable to connect to a wireless network with Dell Inspiron 1525 with Vista

  I set up a wireless about a week ago and have done with the following security features: WEP, activate only certain MAC address to connect and disabled to broadcast the SSID.  I was able to use it very well with my Mac computer using the airport, but when I tried to connect my roommates, a dell inspiron 1525 with vista computer, it can not connect.  I can locate the network but when I try to connect to the network, I get a message saying that for a Windows cannot connect to the network and that the wireless link has failed for unknown reasons.  He then said to contact your administrator, but it's me.  I have a basic knowledge of computers just enough to be dangerous and basically know what I'm going along.  If anyone has any advice for me, my roommate and I'll be very grateful.

  Thank you

  Too bad.  Apparently, I got the wrong MAC address.  I am now connected.

• microphone works only on Dell Inspiron 1525.

  MIC not working not not on our Dell Inspiron 1525.
  It used to work fine until about 3 months - then perhaps some other software/driver, we installed prevents the entrance of mic work Sigmatel.

  I have re-installed the latest drivers Sigmatel Audio for Vista - 32 x, of the Dell Web site. Tried the external microphone and built-in microphone array. Neither one works. No idea what I need to do? Thank you!
