Help! Laptop Inspiron 1525 of external speakers

I got my inspiron 1525 as a gift - a really cool months ago. My son uses these external speakers Dell on his older model Dell laptop and they work fine just plugging them in. Four hours earlier, he took my headphones to school and left me with the speakers to listen to Pandora on the Web while I'm working.

I connect the speakers and I get a popup of SigmaTel Audio Control Panel with an option of two headphones and a microphone - I tried them in all three, tried to as before, rear and speakers LFE, my only option, but still I don't get all the sounds.

The sound on my laptop works fine, the 'static' speakers when I their connection and turn on them, and they worked fine all last night on my son's cell phone so I know that they are operating.

What should I do? Help, please!

Thank you! :))

P.S. I checked thing the FAQ about entering the registry and everything - but I've never done this before and the 1525 is not listed in they say them to use it for, so I am wary to try it. Also, I can't tell if my SigmaTel is the same because I can't find the Pxx - some - number type on it. Gosh, I look completely illiterate!

  • Dell: inspiron 1525 not boot from a USB stick, USB key are not not in the start option.

    Hi all

    I bought this dell laptop inspiron 1525 in the year 2008 with mentioned configuration:

    Core 2 duo processor

    1 GB OF RAM

    Due to some problems in my windows vista, I decided to install a new windows vista in my laptop. I run the dell support live cd at the start of my laptop and created the partitions on my system. But while the new installation OS on the cd i found that optical drive of my system does not work very well. so, I decided to install the new OS of USB. I went to the BIOS and selected the USB key in the boot sequence. but when I tried to install the new OS while pressing the F12 key, USB key is not listed in the start option.

    could someone help me to install the new OS in my machine? It is very urgent that my machine is down for 1 week.

    Please try attached BIOS changes screenshot than everything be useful to me.

    Thank you

    Gurpreet

    Hi Gurpreet,

    Thank you for your response.

    My apologies if I seem repetitive, but when you go to the Option of boot sequence in the system configuration screen, do you think that the USB storage device listed? And do you see a number in front of it?

    Go to the option for embedded devices and check if the USB ports are enabled or disabled. If disabled, change the option and enable the USB Ports.

    If this step does not help, go to the Maintenance option in the system configuration screen and press enter on 'Load Defaults'. On the side right, highlight 'Continue' in green, press Enter and then save & exit.

    Please keep us informed of the results.

    Thank you and best regards,

  • My Inspiron 1525 dell fan is too loud

    The fan on my laptop Inspiron 1525 Dell is strong enough, kind of top of slope.  Is there a way to make it quieter?  I've seen on a youtube video that someone installed a connector to splice one of the wires going to the fan; He took off the back to do this.

    Thank you.
    Patrick Every

    If the fan is noisy on a 1525 chances are that it runs hot.  I want to download cpu - z and gpu - z (both free) to see what temo he turns to.

    You can also carefully blow out the ventilation/heating the compressed air hose.

    A final option is to obtain and use a cooling block.  My gut says that it runs hot.

  • Help! The external speakers on HP G62-225dx laptop connection?

    Sew I connect external speakers for laptop HP G62-225DX?  If so, connect to the port "headphones"?  Or do I need speakers with USB connectors? All recommended speakers Logitech?

    Hello fpcorpuz52,

    I see that you have questions about the connection of the external speakers to your HP computer.

    You should be able to connect the speakers to the headphone jack of the laptop. They work without having to do much or any installation or configuration.

    With respect to the recommendation on the speakers, I have a preference to recommend. I would like to just check the reviews before you buy any game, if you plan to buy some.

  • Dell Inspiron 1525 - unrecognized on external screen HDMI output

    I have a Dell Inspiron 1525 with a HDMI output port.  I have had no success with getting a display actually receive a signal from the laptop.

    I tried Windows 7 and Ubuntu and when I connect the hdmi cable to my TV, the laptop instantly detects a second display device, and I can even move my mouse cursor off the screen of my laptop when the 'extended display' expected to appear on the TV (clone of office, only showing the screen hdmi using FN + F8 ", etc. also does not display anything).  I tried all ports hdmi on the TV and have also tried external monitors with hdmi inputs, I tried three different hdmi cables that work with other devices, even once, the laptop recognizes the display and I can only activate the display in Windows/Ubuntu, but the external monitor receives a signal from the laptop.  Yes, I have made sure the TV/external monitors are set to the appropriate hdmi source.  I tried to have two devices turned off with the attached cable, then by restarting, etc..

    The Samsung TV that I want the output to work on will display a message "searching for signal" when I attach the hdmi cable, but after a few seconds will display "no signal". The problem is to get a real view on the external display device.  How can I get my hdmi port to send the signal my TV or other screen?  I spent hours on google and nothing has helped.  Any advice would be appreciated.

    I just thought I would update this thread that I surprisingly fixed this problem.  There was a missing screw under the laptop where the HDMI port.  I ordered a few screws replacement on EBay and I replaced where the screw should be.  There were a few other missing screws as well (I got the used laptop) that I replaced.  After filling in all the gaps, I tried the HDMI connection and it worked immediately.  No idea how or why that fixed the HDMI port, but he did.

    As it was to sit for so long, you could try to re-seasting all cards, connections, etc.

    There could be condensation, dust, etc in there.

    First turn off the POWER.

    You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

    Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

    And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

    Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

    "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

    And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

    And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.
