Inspiron 1521 lights (finishing post) AC or battery power.

I realize my Dell Inspiron1521 is several years old, but I like it. Recently, he refused to power upward.  When you connect the adapter sector/charger, the blue power led light flashes once and turns off. If you press the power button, you can hear the hard drive starts to turn upward, however in a few seconds in farm back down, obviously to default startup diagnostics (post). The display never gets the chance to light up.  I tried methods all the recommended to try to make it work, including the purchase of a new sector/charger adapter.  I tried the Fn button on tour, but the same thing happens. I just disassembled and tried to start by opening up and noticed the cpu cooling fan doesn't come on. This could possibly be the problem?  And if so, how can I order a new one?

Hello

Honestly, I don't know the answer to these questions.  I think that technical support would distribute the motherboard together as a spare part in this issue.  If you can replace the BIOS chip or not, I'm not even sure that you can acquire one without acquiring the motherboard together.   And I begin to guess the cost.  I deal with support issues and I have no visibility to the price of the parts.

You can check the Dell spare parts and, I think, get a quote on a price. Since the system is more than 5 years, I don't know who they're wearing parts for him more.  If this isn't the case, you can check ebay or other online computer parts suppliers.

Sorry, I couldn't be more helpful and better define what part is causing problems.

    Win 7 Satellite A500 PSAM3A-03P00E.

    Battery light flashes when connected to the power supply (intermittent fault), when I disconnect the sector and reconnect the flashing stops and battery (high capacity) continues to receive.

    Also, when battery light blinks the keyboard backlight stays on when it should white and if the backlight is turned off and the battery light starts to blink the keyboard backlight turns on, all other functions seem to work well.

    Hello

    Have you noticed this problem since the first day of purchase?
    Theoretically, it could be possible that your battery begins to malfunction
    On the other hand, an electrical problem could also be possible

    However, try this:
    Remove the battery and the AC adapter. Then press and hold button power 30 sec long.
    Then insert the battery and plug AC adapter still does that help?

    By the way: this is the BIOS updated? If this isn't the case, perform an update.

  • Satellite A100-225: battery power light flash orange

    Last night, plugged my AGES of NINE DAYS by Satellite A100-225, the lights were on, it was working fine.

    This morning, woke up, lights were turned off, tried to turn it on, the battery power button flashed light Orange.

    Tried to play with the cable by plugging it into other outlets that I knew worked, nothing helps.

    Have tried to start without the battery in it, without success.

    Unless there is a function that can prevent from starting somewhere, I don't know what to say. This computer is nine days old, and I do not understand how something can just wrong all night.

    Adding info if necessary - computer was on when I went to sleep, and was running Mozilla Firefox and WinAMP.

    Hello

    Perhaps the unit automatically goes in standby mode or hibernation?
    On this device, the automatic system standby/hibernation has been reinstalled. This function automatically stops the system when there is no input or material of access for a specified time. You can specify the time and select System standby or hibernation in the base of the Toshiba power saver settings tab.

    In addition, if the battery LED is flashing it means that the battery charge is low. The adapter must be connected to the battery.
    If it of not possible to charge the battery, so there are several possibilities: the battery could be dead, the AC adapter doesn't work or there is something wrong with the hardware of the laptop.

    Try disconnecting the battery several times and then connect.

    But according to your ad you tried a procedure and it doesn t work. So I think you should ask the ASP in your country to help.

  • Problem with on Inspiron 1521 1390 mini card

    For the past few weeks, I had trouble maintaining a stable wireless internet connection.  I have intermittently lose connection or the connection strength fluctuates.  I have an Inspiron 1521, with a Dell Wireless 1390 Wlan Mini Card.  Also, I am running Windows 7.

    A few hours ago, I suddenly lost my wireless connection and could not restore.  I ran the diagnostic tool, who reported that there was a hardware or a problem with the driver with my minimap 1390.  Now, when I go into the Device Manager, it has an exclamation mark next to him and he says: "this device cannot start (Code 10)".

    I rebooted my system and downloaded and installed this driver (http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/04/DriverDetails?driverId=CR6YY&fileid=2731101777).  Now, device manager says "Windows has determined the software driver for your device is up to date," but there is always a Code 10 error.

    It just means that the card needs to be replaced?  I don't know what to do now - any help would be appreciated.

    I received today my wireless card new (Dell Wireless 1395 - that now recommends Dell for my system).  I installed it and as soon as I turned on my laptop, the card was recognised, software driver had already been installed (somehow) and available wireless networks detected card.  I'm now connected wireless using this card.

    Sundeep B, thank you very much for all your help!

  • Webcam driver for Inspiron 1521

    Hello

    I have an Inspiron 1521 on which I have installed XP Pro. There's a webcam which seems to work fine. I just installed the Web Cam Manager software and it is demanding a driver of the webcam, before it will let me play. I looked in the CD that came with the laptop but I can not find them. Is there somewhere on the Dell site where they can be downloaded? Apart from this little glitch, the laptop is great.

    Thanks for any help you can give.


  • Mid-2010 MBP loses battery power while you sleep

    Hi everyone, I have replaced my MBP unibody mid-2010 with a spare battery and the laptop battery lost its battery power very quickly, during normal use and while you sleep. I contacted the manufacturer and they sent me a different battery, and the same problems continue to occur, so I suspect that something is wrong with my computer at this point.

    Above all, I had a second replacement battery installed when I wiped my computer clean and made a new fresh installation of El Capitan and the problem persists. The drain of the battery during sleep is even worse, it goes 100% to near depletion in a few hours.

    I have read several threads on these issues but can't seem to find the one that matches my computer behavior or specific settings. I'd love some help troubleshooting this! Can someone kindly walk through diagnostics on this for me please? FYI I already have:

    (1) the drive repaired/checked permissions

    (2) reset the NVRAM

    (3) reset SMC

    Thank you all and happy new year!

    First, not all replacement batteries are at the height for use on portable Macs what OWC at macsales.com has batteries that are. The other thing is in what regards the battery life is what you do. As these effects for how long you can run on battery power only.  Ranging from light to moderate to heavy use. If you have things like an anti virus program on the MBP. It will run in the background. And to a certain extent, even in standby mode. That will exhaust the battery. Mac do not need anti virus programs. The amount of programs running in the background is all to one degree or another effect battery life.
