• Following Windows upgrade 2-in-1 10 no automatic rotation of screen on Inspiron 7000

  I have an Inspiron 7000 2-in-1 that I just upgraded to Windows 10. Following the upgrade, auto-rotation of the screen has stopped working, and I could not allow him because the button in the notifications area to do so was gray. I also found the check box turn on in the display settings dialog box, but after allowing that the screen has always refused to auto-rotation.

  Note that this function works very well under Windows 8.1, so I know it can't be a hardware problem.

  Then I went to the Manager of peripheral and deleted devices of two sensors, thinking that Windows should detect and reinstall the drivers for them once I restarted. There is unfortunately no, and detection devices have been in Device Manager. I've never seen a version of Windows that does not detect missing drivers for hardware existing after a reboot and re - install automatically.

  Now, all the options to activate the rotation of the screen disappeared, so Windows apparently didn't know that the motion detectors exist.

  I've looked everywhere for these device drivers so I can install myself, including the Dell site support using my service code number and drew a complete blank. Where can I get drivers for detection devices, or otherwise get this problem fixed?

  Please help, a 2-in-1 is pretty useless if I can't get the display to auto-rotation. Thanks in advance!

  Seems, that I figured this out...

  When you uninstall the sensor devices by using Device Manager, Windows 10 do not detect after a reboot and automatically installs the drivers as Windows normally would for any other device (as long as you have the setting enabled in the "Devices and printers" dialog box, it is enabled by default), as I had mentioned previously.

  This is because the sensor for my model laptop drivers (Dell Inspiron 7000 2-in-1 (7348)) are part of the Dell 'Intel Chipset Driver' package. There is absolutely no mention of this on the downloads page, which obviously is not very useful:

  www.dell.com/.../DriversDetails

  Once I installed this package, all the controls for the rotation of the screen appeared, but they were always in gray.

  It turns out that controls the rotation of the screen now gray when you have the laptop open in the "normal position", or with the keyboard on your work surface and the tilted screen back as you would normally use for any another portable computer. Once you either place the laptop on the direction tries or with the keyboard completely folded backward, those controls 'sober up' themselves and can then be changed. To the best of my knowledge, this was not the case in Windows 8.1, and it's easy to fall into entrapment.

  Live and learn I guess, but it's not an obvious problem is easy to understand, or at least it wasn't for me. I hope this helps someone.

• 15 Inspiron 7000 series 7559 - paved touch Windows 7

  I recently installed Windows 7 on my Inspiron 15 7000-7559. I managed to find most of the drivers and get the working material.

  However for the Touchpad, I can't find driver or software for it. Windows 7 uses only the default drivers mouse Compatible PS/2. When in the Dell drivers site, there no drivers for input devices.

  It works very much like a regular touchpad, but it doesn't have the additional function, as two fingers scrolling etc.

  It's always very good to me until I realized that my Palm will accidentally hit the touchpad when typing. Looking at my old dell laptops, I saw that there is a feature of rejection of palm for the Dell touchpad.

  Windows detects this trackpad as Atmel Maxtouch.

  Can someone please advise me were to find a compatible driver for this problem?

  Help and support is greatly appreciated.

  I run the laptop Dell Inspiron 7559 i7. I had the same problem but I found the drivers who have worked for me.

• The upgrade of an Inspiron 5348 Windows 10

  Hello, just over a year, we bought a 5348 Inspiron with Windows 8.1 down here in New Zealand. It was OK for a few months and one day I totally messed up because I decided to follow the instructions and update Windows - BIG MISTAKE. The computer was completely messed up. I got help from Dell (Asia-Pacific I guess) at the time, but ultimately confused with reinstalling Windows 8.1 using the Dell recovery program. Dell advice was to reinstall windows and update only once and never again (which seemed strange to me). Anyway, it has been fine since then (without updating).

  My question is about the update of Windows 10 - is this going to be a problem with the Inspiron 5348 which has not been updated in the month? I don't have the notice asking me to update Windows 10 that I've heard, maybe because I did not update since the big problem I've had months ago.

  So I don't forget to try to upgrade to Windows 10? Or would it really an improvement or 8.1 Windows which seems to be rather unstable?

  Cheers, Paul

  I watched videos of introduction 10 Windows and he looks pretty good / easy to use. I wonder what are the problems likely to use Windows 10 compared to 8.1 Windows

  Cheers, Paul

  I have no problem at all. I'm delighted with my upgrade to win 10. You should be as lucky as me, however, to get a perfect, almost experience judging by messages others have fact. If it's not perfect right from the start, could be that you are in trouble. Therefore, to make these images. Win 10 will have its own built-in back capacity, which works usually - but sometimes that fails too, I read. Create your own! Follow Dell article I posted update drivers both before & after the upgrade...

  How not to not upgrade Windows 10

  I went to read messages about it while the upgrade sat in Windows Update (or anywhere where that put it). I told you to wait - call back me later - fully intending to try, after having two images & a clone of 8.1 to win. When I got home, I was a little sick at heart, on the complaints I had read. I do not know now if I clicked accidentally something to start or he started alone - but after about 4 automatic restarts for maybe two hours - everything was fine. I'm thrilled!

  I've lost any ability or the file I had to 8.1 win, I see. Some screens of settings are hard to find, but who has always been so. Things are as quick as ever. Maybe McAfee ceased to update its definitions because of the upgrade. I uninstalled & put my trust in Defender & firewall Windows, which are impressive, especially the firewall. Some very painful events left the observer of events, but news are that someday I'm going to study. But less/nothing is having me worry more material than in Win 8.1, although concern was probably wrong. Event Viewer errors are often false. I have no problem in Win 10 that I did not win 8.1, which was not much. The two 'SFC/scannow' & DISM still declare no error.

  Win 10, we can stop is no longer always the critical updates to enter through Windows Update. So, I hope that your problem is over. You can prevent updates to driver, but it is better, when he didn't need to. I did not personally a.

  I am delighted with Win 10, generation 10240. I hope that's what you will receive, because, finally, I read a news - threshold 2 or Version 1511 - has been withdrawn. It is problematic. I'm going to only when offered through Windows Update, when I trust that bugs are fixed. I have a new series of images & a clone by hand, however.

• Inspiron 1420 - Windows 7, SigmaTel Audio

  Model: Inspiron 1420
  Pilot: SigmaTel High Definition Audio CODEC

  Hello. I recently upgraded my Inspiron 1420 Windows Vista Home Premium (32 bit) for Windows 7 Ultimate (32 bit). The upgrade was very successful with the exception of audio problems.

  The problem is very strange, at least for me. I have three audio ports on the front (two headphones and a microphone). Both headphones work fine, but the port of microphonoe no longer works. This problem occurred after my Windows 7 Ultimate upgrade. It didn't when I was still on Windows Vista Edition Home Premium. I don't really know what the problem is. It seems that the audio cuts when I try to go into the selection of "Recording devices", when I right click on the volume in my taskbar icon. The sound cuts.

  An example error message would be when I choose recording devices while Windows Media Player is running (play music too, of course), I would get this message: 'an audio device has been disconnected or reconfigured. Make sure the audio device is connected, and then try to replay the point."
  Other audio problems would be video games such as counter-strike (for those who are familiar with this game). I would like to start the game, but there is no sound. I reduce and there is still no sound. It's only when I leave the game my audio would return.

  Again, I don't know exactly what the problem. Maybe my model (Inspiron 1420) does not support Windows 7 Ultimate? Is there a driver for my SigmaTel High Definition Audio CODEC driver updates?

  For any help or suggestion would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

  -Khoi

  Given that you've gone from Home Premium, Ultimate, you had to do a reinstall (you can not simply be upgraded).  With an installation of 'new', you have to install all the drivers (Win 7 can install some) but you should also install any chipset not install drivers before installation of the device drivers or devices will be either or not install correctly.

  There are two chipset drivers listed on the download page for Vista 32-bit, and they should work on Win 7 32 bit (regardless of Version).  There is also a SigmaTel driver on downloads.  Download and install the two drivers from the chipset, then the Sigma Tel and see if that corrects the problem.

• Problems with Dell Factory Image Restore - Dell Inspiron 1564 - Windows 7 Home Premium

  Hello

  My laptop (Dell Inspiron 1564 - Windows 7 Home Premium) slowed down a few days ago and I decided to restore the system to Dell Factory Image. The process started but stopped at most of halfway and gave the following message: "unable to apply the Image. I rebooted the system, but it would now not start, not even in safe mode! Perhaps, during the process of restoring a few essential Windows files have been erased.

  I want to restore the Image of Dell and can not reinstall Windows because I lost the product key of my Windows 7 original installation DVD provided by Dell at the time of the purchase of the laptop. Your help / advice is solicited and would be much appreciated.

  Thank you.

  P.S. The system recovery Partition is intact and has factory.wim and other related directories / files intact.

  If you use the Windows 7 Home Premium DVD Dell reinstallation it will automatically apply the Dell OEM SLP activation. In short, a product key is entered from the DVD and active if and only if the BIOS is validated by Dell to perform Windows 7. Therefore, you do not have the key 25-digit number on the certificate of authenticity. If you want to know the code then look under the battery.

• ALL NEW Inspiron 7000 WiFi is Horrendous!

  I got my Inspiron 7000 literally an hour (15-inch, i7core, HD 8 GB RAM 1 TB model) ago. That is fine, but the WiFi is sickening. It keeps down the internet connection and whenever I start troubleshooting it gives me a different problem to be fixed. First of all, it was a problem with the wireless card, then "default gateway was not available".  This is unacceptable. I work at home and need a SOLID connection. It's already enough Dell took almost 3 weeks to get the thing to me and now this. I am tired and frustrated. All other devices in my house will connect and STAY connected, so the problem is not on my end. I send this thing back? I hope not.

  Hi, I had this problem with my Dell Inspiron 7000 series 10 Windows running. I am VERY frustrated by lack of Dell to help with this problem. For awhile, I successfully used a plug in USB Wi - Fi dongle (I disabled the internal Intel Dual Band Wireless AC 7265 card first). I didn't have time to browse using phone Dell prolix. I was convinced that it was a hardware problem. Then I solved the problem: I updated the Intel driver (on the site of Dell). No difference. Went to Device Manager, right click the Intel WiFi thingy in network cards, then choose Properties, and then 'Advanced' tab, then I turned aggressive walk until way (no), disabled "disconnect wowlan (no difference), then attached power to the 'up' (no difference). Finally and successfully, I looked up my router wireless BT, found it is "802.11 b/g/n" and changed "wireless" mode in the menu computer laptop adapter: "802. 11 b/g and THAT worked. Instantly, got a solid connection. Great relief. Now, I even had a spare WiFi dongle for one of the laptops to work. I'm pretty annoyed that I couldn't find a tutorial online to Dell about this, however.

• laptop (Dell Inspiron) with Windows 7 Home Premium is now slow to most of the activities - loading of the pages in the browser, etc.

  I heard that after a few years of use, Windows-based computers lose their ability to function. This happened to me before and I bought a new laptop. Now, I think that it happens again. The laptop (Dell Inspiron) with Windows 7 Home Premium is now slow to most of the activities - loading of the pages in the browser, etc... He is also declining my VPN connection occasionally, but also my direct connection is very slow. Latency shows speedtest software provided by the ISP in addition of 250 ms, download speed of 1 MB/s (compared with 8 planned) and 0.05Mbps download. The ISP has corrected this once, but I'm wondering now if it is the computer which is slow rather than on the network because my laptop works well on the same network/router. Is there one solution to this other than another new laptop?

  Jonathan,

  You say that your computer is slow, but all of the examples you give are rather than slow computer operations slow network communications.  To avoid any unnecessary work, check how fast the computer is on the tasks that don't use any network.

  If it works fine for tasks not network then you can concentrate on the problems of network as being the only concern.

  It has also become very slow for no network tasks you should study other causes.  Just as an example: If, like me, you sleep / turn off the computer when you are not using it then defrag will never work, so you can run it manually to make sure that doesn't cause problems.   Describe your symptoms in this thread so that someone can advise on the best course of action.

  In the unlikely case where you must run Dell Factory Image Restore, then the instructions are in your manual PC *.  Before doing this, run Dell Datasafe Local Backup then click on Backup, recovery to create - media allows you to create a bootable USB of the partition that you can use the normal procedure that failing Dell Factory Image Restore [to do this, even if you have already solved your problems so that you could face if the hard drive has failed never completely].

• Dell Inspiron 1750, Windows 7: HL-DT-ST DVD +-RW GT10N not working after critical updates from MS

  I'm having a problem with my Player DVD - HL - DT - ST DVD +-RW GT10N.  I have a Dell Inspiron 1750, Windows 7.

  It was working fine, then after 3 critical updates from MS, it stopped reading/writing on the DVD player.  The only way I can access the DVD (read or write) is to restart.  A subsequent loading of different or even the same DVD finished with the issue of not being able to recognize the DVD.

  When I click on the properties of the DVD drive in Device Manager, it clocks.  However, after a reboot, the properties has worked well and said that the driver does not work properly.

  I got to the period before 1st update was installed and the DVD player worked as before.  However, Ms. downloaded the same (I assume) updated critical shortly after.  Low and behold, the DVD player does not work yet.

  The MS CD/DVD patch could not fix.

  I also tried UpperFilters/LowerFilters regedit deletions, but it is impossible to find these entries (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/982116 > HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}).  Thank you Osprey4 for your help continues.

  The only safe option is to perform a factory restore. If you do not, then you are likely to be confronted with a machine that is seriously infected or was hacked. Have a look here for instructions:

• My dell Inspiron 1150 windows xp password son has locked and the screen will not change, we do not know the password or have we not the reset disk, how can connect to reset password

  My dell Inspiron 1150 windows xp password son has locked and the screen displays the dell logo and says that I need the master password or administrator, my son can't remember and we do not have the reset disk, is it possible to get and reset the password or enter the system

  If you are using XP Home Edition, the built-in Administrator account probably doesn't have a defined password. You can start in safe mode, where this account will be selectable when connecting. It allows to connect and change the password of your normal connection.

  To start in safe mode, keep hitting F8 twice a second after turning on the PC until you get the start menu where safe mode is selectable by the up/down arrow keys, and then press ENTER.

  If you are using XP Professional, try to connect using the built-in Administrator account. You don't need to do it in safe mode (although you can if you wish). If your normal login screen is a display of the user symbol and hit ctrl-alt-del twice to get to login to text entry. Type administrator as the user name and try a blank password.

• I have just re installed Windows XP. Windows installed after three attempts. When I turn on the computer there are three choices of Windows XP. Only the first works how to remove the other two?

  I have just re installed Windows XP. Windows installed after three attempts. When I turn on the computer there are three choices of Windows XP. Only the first works how to remove the other two?

  I have a hard drive. At least two partitions. C: 74.7 GB with 63.3 freespace
  D: 74.2 GB with 70.6 freespace
  These are my original specifications of the hard drive: 160 GB (7200 RPM) SERIAL ATA HARD DRIVE WI
  So I suspect there are at least one or more partitions hidden leaving 11.1 GB for hidden partitions!
  Windows is present on both drives C: & D:. In the directory windows on C:, the oldest entry is 19.12.12, 21.43 last 21.12.12, 22.50
  The first entry in the directory windows on D: is 19.12.12, 18.42 the last 21.12.12, 22.40
  I hope that makes sense to someone, any help gratefully received!

  As long as you have verified you dΘmarrez done on the c: / partition, Yes, you can reformat the drive D: / partition using Windows 'disk management '.
