Inspiron 15R SE 7520 - wireless issue

The last few days I had problems connecting to my wireless home network.  The PC recognizes the network, but is not able to connect (error message "Unable to connect to this network").

I generated a report by wireless (netsh wlan show wlanreport), which contained a number of errors, but I'm not sure of what they (bad wireless card?).

If connected with an ethernet cable to the router, the PC is able to connect to the network.

The network card is an Intel Centrino Wireless - N 2230.

Thanks in advance for any help.

So much worse... the question ended by referring to a wifi extender, I installed a week ago.  As soon as I unplugged it, my problem is gone.

  • Inspiron 15R SE 7520 video card problems

    Dear DELL,

    This is a story of love at first sight, a happy period of parade and then heartbreak. When shopping for a new laptop, I fell upon a jewel of one. display 1080 p MATTE? Check. Zippy image Ivy Bridge CPU? Check. Clean, dedicated GPU? Check. Large amounts of RAM? Check. HARD drive tough? Check. FOUR USB 3.0 ports? Check. Optical disc (call me old-fashioned)? Check. Decent price tag? Check (after rebate online). Didn't hesitantly does not, I immediately bought an Inspiron 7520 home in July of 2012. At first, everything was a lot. I had a wonderful relationship with my laptop. The AMD Radeon HD M 7730 run latest games on medium to high heat, as long as I was not too hard with the resolution. Ultra high heat were out of the question, but I was fine with that. Of course, if DELL had to procure a 7750M or a 7770M, things would have been even more pink. Ah, good times!

    As they say, all good things have an end. This relationship that bordered on perfection did not last long. In October of the same year, a tragedy struck. My baby was delivered with Win7 Home Premium 64-bit, but since I am eligible for the purchase of Win8 at a subsidized price, I went for him just after launched Win8. Initially, I had been suspicious of the upgrade because I was afraid that there would be problems of compatibility with my existing games (I have a large library of titles of steam). However, after researching this issue, I discovered that there was not much to fear. WIN8 seemed to be just as good for gaming under Win7 (or even better). So I made the leap.

    And here! Immediately after the installation of Win8, it became clear that DELL had not fully prepared for the influx of new users of Win8 7520. From the beginning, my AMD video card stopped working. Needless to say, it was obviously a driver problem. I'm a patient person. That's why I decided to wait for DELL or AMD released a newer version of pilots 7730M. Because, you know, builders/OEMs need time to do their stuff. And I understood that. Take a few weeks, heck, take a couple of months. So, I want a fully functional GPU again so that I can play games Beyond 800 x 600 on low heat. Now, when I try to open the Catalyst Control Center, it just gives me this error: " " "Catalyst Control Centre cannot be started. Currently, there are no settings that can be configured with the Catalyst Control Center'. Tick, tock, tick tock... Fast forward to today, March 5, 2013, and it's been about half a year what Win8 was created.

    Here's a question, DELL - WHERE ON EARTH ARE THE LATEST DRIVERS for the AMD RADEON HD 7730 M?

    Before any tech support agent gives me an official response asking me to troubleshoot/diagnosis/attempt to repair my system, I'll save you the trouble: don't. Here is a (non exhaustive) list of the steps I have taken in the past half a year to troubleshoot/diagnosis/attempt to repair my system:

    -I went through the whole process "devmgmt.msc".

    -J' I updated my version of .NET for the last.

    -J' downloaded and installed ALL the latest drivers for BIOS, GPU, WLAN, USB 3.0, memory card reader, and even, you name it. Yes, not even the latest GPU drivers on your work site. The 7730M does everything just quite Win8. This means that the two latest drivers are not later, or that you have published a very sloppy update that probably made things worse rather than improve it.

    -J' checked multiple for a line (beginning with DELL) for corrections.

    -J' visited the site Web of AMD and unacceptable, specific Win8 for 7730M drivers have not been released yet. Worse yet, it seems that they have not committed to a schedule for updating their drivers!

    -J' tried to install different versions of drivers of M 7730, none has made a difference.

    -I probably did some other things but I do not remember anything else right now.

    Look, it's very simple, DELL. On behalf of all THOSE who have purchased the 7520 from you (and I know that he is a popular model), we are sick and tired of waiting for an update of the simple driver! If AMD can not get their shit right, move them, push, force to! You have a business relationship with them, but you also have a relationship with us, your customers. If you indeed treat us like your valuable customers, so please, please, please, please, please, just publish this update of elusive driver that reactivates the GPU in our 7520, if running on Win7 or Win8. It is a shame for me; In fact, I took the time to type this essay just to release all my pent-up frustration.

    Finally, I got it with not be able to enjoy something that I legitimately own the way I want. If you don't sort this issue as soon as possible, I give you my word, I don't have to buy another DELL again. Do not respond to this letter by means of a useless official response you give to each complainant unique, I like to take concrete measures. Also, I don't want to go down to Win7 I like Win8, so this isn't an option as well. This issue has climbed out of control - simply by looking at the number of threads complaining about this same exact thing makes me want to pull out my hair. Once more, on behalf of all Inspiron 15R SE 7520 owners, I beg DELL and/or AMD to lead to a permanent solution to this problem quickly. Pretty please?

    Yours sincerely,

    An extremely agitated owner Inspiron 7520

    I've been using a n5010 with a core i3 370 m and 4650 m since 2.5 years even if there is an increase in acceptable performance for me: p I know I shouldn't expect to play on the set high in the good fps but it will do the job for me. And Yes, I couldve built much better desktop at the same price, but I'll take it to College for CAD, so there need to be a portable system. Instead, think wait you two months or more for computers laptops haswell will be worh it?

    • The two processors are of the family of Ivy Bridge (HM77 Express Chipset) not = no compatibility issues
    • Because your laptop has 2 ram slots, you are forced using 2 x 4 GB RAM modules
    • It is a standard common purchase 2 modules brand same (avoiding the questions)
    • Currently, you have a Micron ram module
    • So, you can try to find the same ram module
    • Or, the purchase of 2 other identical pairs.
    • Local shops can help you to directly appoint your brand of portable & model
    • Otherwise, you can visit an online store selling RAM modules.
    • Most of these stores got a wizard online tool to help you buy the right ram module.
    • Good luck!
  • Inspiron 15r SE 7520 MaxxAudio 4 problem

    Hello

    My problem is that my Equalizer will take no effect after the last update of victory 10 birthday, I tried to reinstall the driver and app. All settings under speakers/headphones used effect on the sound.

    Hello. Dell provides 2 audio drivers Conexant for Win10, for the Inspiron 15R SE 7520.  Try them both and see if we have the function you want to use.

    Version 1.0.52.0 - October 4, 2013

    and

    Version 8.54.40.50 - 3 February 2016

    If you currently have the new driver, you must completely remove it before installing the old.

    1. open Device Manager (found in the Control Panel, or type devmgmt.msc in the search box).
    2. expand the section 'Sound, video & game controllers.
    3. right-click the Conexant High Definition audio driver.
    4. click on "Uninstall".
    5. put a check mark in the option to remove the software driver, click ok.
    6. restart the laptop. Because you deleted the Conexant driver files, Windows will install its native audio driver, named "High definition Audio Device".

    Go back to Device Manager and make sure that "High definition Audio Device" is installed. When this is the case, you can install the old driver Conexant. However, depending on the version of Win10 you have, it can automatically up-to-date for the new driver.

  • UEFI install Windows 8 Inspiron 15R SE 7520

    I try to install Win 8 on my Inspiron 15R SE 7520.  If I activate the UEFI boot and let legacy boot enabled, I see the HARD drive.  If I disable the legacy, I can see no longer the HARD drive.

    I am running BIOS A09 (the latest) on the laptop.  Should what settings I do so that I can install Win 8 mode UEFI?

  • Inspiron 15R SE 7520 video card does not work after update Windows 8.1

    The internal graphics are Intel HD 4000 and the graphics card is a Radeon HD M 7730. After update for Windows 8.1 almost everything worked, except that it only uses the integrated Intel graphics card. Now, the resolution is not right and parts of the interface Windows look rather mediocre in comparison.

    What I tried:

    • Uninstalling the video card drivers
    • Reinstall the drivers for the video card in Dell
    • Install the latest beta drivers directly on the AMD website
    • Disabling the integrated Intel graphics card
    • Uninstall the Intel integrated graphics card

    So now what?

    Hi all

    After a lot of Googling, got this Dell website which has 8.1 Windows drivers for Inspiron 15R 7520 SE:

    http://FTP.Dell.com/published/pages/Inspiron-15R-se-7520.html#TopSolutions

    After having installed the drivers from AMD & Intel HD4000 for Win8.1 on the site above, blurry of the screen disappeared and catalyst works again!

    Please spread this link autour!  Very weird representatives Dell did not provide this link. Their advice to uninstall drivers / stop windows update does not help.

  • Lack of stereo mix? Inspiron 15R SE 7520.

    Hi guys,.

    I'm using Inspiron 15R SE 7520, I want stereo mix so that I can record the sound of the application.

    I checked on the 'Recorder' active option "Show disabled devices" and show disconnected devices". But there is still no "stereo mix". "." Only "internal Microphone" appear.

    even the steps of http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/39532/how-to-enable-stereo-mix-in-windows-7-to-record-audio/

    I even tried to reinstall the driver.

    but no luck

    BTW, my audio is Conexant HD Audio.

    I hope to hear from you guys. Thank you.

    Hi Jimco,

    Thanks for the reply! I finally found the solution!

    Actually, I need to change the driver to get the stereo mix. In my case, my driver file name is chdrt.inf

    There are these lines that disable the stereo mix

    ; HKR,%EPattributePath%\EpSettings\StereoMixEnable,enable,1,01

    ; HKR,%EPattributePath%\EpSettings\StereoMixEnable,MixAssocSeq,1,E0,E0

    ; HKR,%EPattributePath%\EpSettings\StereoMixEnable,MuteGainSettings,1,00,00

    Everything you have to do is remove the semicolon, it should be...

    HKR,%EPattributePath%\EpSettings\StereoMixEnable,enable,1,01

    HKR,%EPattributePath%\EpSettings\StereoMixEnable,MixAssocSeq,1,E0,E0

    HKR,%EPattributePath%\EpSettings\StereoMixEnable,MuteGainSettings,1,00,00

    then save the file, reinstall the driver using "Browse my computer for driver software". I got the stereo mix of baby! Whoah!

  • Computer laptop screen flickering and horizontal lines in Inspiron 15r SE 7520

    I have a laptop Dell inspiron 15r is who is 1.1years old (model - 7520). It worked well up to that of a few days. Last week, he began giving a horizontal line of white point at the top of the screen (like that... in white) for the entire width of the screen. Since yesterday, or a similar line began to appear at the bottom too. Two of these online come and go every 2-3 sec. And the screen will jump a little (like 5 pixels or larger) and it will also sometimes shake which makes it difficult to read letters.

    The problem exists everywhere, even in the start screen. In short, when I press power button / stop and screen start showing something problem also begins.

    Today, I plugged an external lcd display via a vga cable and it works fine. No line and no flickering. So I guess that the GPU is ok? What could be the problem? Would be - this contact that loose or something cable laptop computer screen?

    Another question: I got the security, including the protection against accidental damage and stuff for a year. But since I was outside this period, now, what do I do?

    And since I am outside the warranty period anyway is it OK if I open my laptop and try something?

    Help, please!

    If you have found the solution please share with me.

  • Dell Inspiron 15R SE 7520 - mSATA connection?

    Hello. I have an Inspiron 15R SE here (see code evaluates DNDOM12S.) I understand that there is an internal SATA 2 drive of 1 TB 5400 RPM. The links on the General page to reviews that mention the mSATA 32g so I did not know that the system is apparently came with a disc with an mSATA petition, but is no longer made.

    I would like to install a SSD as I have an insane amount of space NAS.  I would like to know:

    If I get an mSATA system drive I mentioned above will have the correct daughter card / port to install?

    If Yes, I a SATA 3 SSD for faster transfer speeds?

    If not, what is the reference number of the daughter card I need to order and install to use player mSATA?

    Wouldn't make more sense to get a shopping cart for the optical drive and install an SSD there? Is it also a SATA 2 connection or a SATA 3 drive will work in the optical Bay?

    I also thought that I read somewhere that the BIOS cannot be set to boot from the optical drive caddy? Is this true?

    Thanks in advance

    If you order the system with a disk mSATA, the girl will not be in the system.  You need one depends on what model you have - 15R refers to one of several models - 5520, 5521, etc..  You need to find your model number (on the screen of the BIOS, F2 on startup) to find the right part.

    The new model SE 15R will be training mSATA 6G;  most are 3G.

    It is true that you cannot start a drive mounted in an optical bay adapter.

  • Issue of Dell inspiron 15r is 7520 switchable graphics...

    Hello

    If I go into Device Manager and disable the chart of intel integrated the computer will only work on radeon HD graphics card? or will this mess up my screen thanks

    The system does not at all if you disable the Intel GPU.  All video data through the GPU from Intel, by design.  The AMD GPU is just a coprocessor.

    There is no way to force the system to use the AMD GPU full-time - it is not hooked up to work this way (only the GPU from Intel is connected to the display surface - the AMD GPU has no physical connection to screen other than the GPU from Intel, which is part of the processor (and which is welded in turn constantly to the system board).)

  • Sound weird coming from the hard drive, every Min or 2-Dell Inspiron 15R SE 7520

    Not really sure if this is still a bad question. This player has not yet failed. It's just making a weird noise, I have no idea what could be the cause.

    http://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=XwYSdD4fyRU

    The ticking, in this video, is exactly the same. The only difference. Undermines the fact every 1 min, sometimes every 2 minutes... and sometimes all 3 or 4 minutes. And he just does the ticking sound once. not again and again.

    If a tick from time to time. You can hear only - when everything is guiet? Just a tick and it disappears for a while?

    Does that mean that my drive has failed? Reason why I'm asking. After a year of use, the hard drive has failed-It just died. Dell has replaced the disc/Msata too. It was near another year, with replacement. Is this a sign that I should back up and save all my info. Contact dell.

    IF kills laptop another disk hard-is there a chance of the motherboard is defective?

    Things that I've tried - defragment the disk, I even check and repair sectors... found nothing.

    Any help would be appreciated...

    thought about upgrading to an ssd, but I really want to do, if the motherboard is to kill hard drives?

    Thanks for reading

    Here I am again, a bit frustrated... Has achieved a good response when I posted... but nothing else after that... Different response of old Story/Issue...same... (((I thought of it out on mine)))

    Don't know if that's the right answer, but I thought that if there was someone out there with the same problem, it might give you some answers.

    After reading and Goggling... I found a few different answers... "My favorite, but NOT CORRECT"... Your drive is dying, you must back up all the files and save them to an external disk, before it fails... where there is a click or a bad sector... it will multiply and more.

    Of course, there is a simple answer from someone who knows nothing about the hard drive. But incorrect. Especially if you do not experience problems or blue screens.

    A hard click or clunk, may be two different things. Non of them pointing to a player out. Depending on the player, it could be a bad sector. It could be one of 2 things, "THERMAL CALIBRATION ROUTINES", or it could be "ADVANCE DRIVE PROTECTION".

    I don't understand how an any of them work, but a quick Google search should provide you with answers.

    On my drive a simple defrag helped. Now I hear the noise, every once and awhile. Sometimes I don't hear it at all in a session. You are not sure if it was a coincidence? But I feel much better knowing what to do.

    Thanks for reading my question and post

  • mSATA SSD installed in Inspiron 15r SE 7520

    Hello

    I just finished the task of replacing marathon 32 GB SSD with a 240 GB mSATA we.

    I cloned my existing hard drive with Macrium reflect, and his beautiful fixed so far.

    I have a few questions tho.

    (1) the original 1 TB HARD drive and the new mSATA SSD have additional partitions hidden. There is a 500 MB EFI system partition, a 40 MB OEM partition, a recovery 490 MB, drive C partition (on the SSD and renamed E disk the disk of 1 TB) and a final recovery 12.16 GB partition.

    Can I remove the additional partitions since the original 1 TB drive? Do I need them on the new SSD more?

    (2) Intel rpaid start continuous technology to Flash a warning that he is not running. I've turned off to allow the DSS work. Then I uninstalled it. I get the warning tho. Any way I can get rid of him?

    Thank you!

    Ok thank you.

    If the million dollar question: how to do a fresh install of windows 8, or even windows 7 if it is easier, on the mSATA SSD?

    I tried from the DELL restore USB I did. No luck. Put the original image on 931 GB HARD drive.

    If all goes well a new facility can sort, which brings back me to the issue of the $ 1 million!

    EDIT:

    Think I've sorted it. I used macrium reflect to remove all hidden from the original HARD disk partitions. I changed the BIOS to boot from the mSATA SSD first, using UEFI and start-up.

    I uninstalled quick start windows 8 search engine. Everything looks good today.
