Jerky DVD on Inspiron E1705

Hi, I have problems playing DVDs on my laptop. Its an Inspiron E1705 whenever I try to watch a DVD with Cyberlink powerDVD or Windows media player I get video choppy and sound. This is the second time that this has happened. I had fixed it before, dell accessed my remote computer and downloaded stuff and who not, and it worked fine. all my DVDs played smoothly. but this is no longer the case. I went on the drivers and downloads site and looked at everything that is recommended for my laptop, but I don't know which would fix my problem. I don't want to download anything, I don't have to. I tried to put my computer in DMA mode (or whatever it is) and its already there, so he did nothing. I also tried to tinker with the settings DVD cyberlink (the program I prefer to watch DVDs in), it helped some but not a lot. Help, please. Thank you

  • Minor problem with the New Installation of Windows 7 on my Inspiron E1705/9400 - two entries for "Base system device" under "Other devices" with yellow exclamation point

    Hello

    First of all, let me tell you about my system.   It is of a laptop Inspiron E1705/9400 with the Core 2 Duo T7400 processor clocked at 2.16 GHZ.   It has 2 GB of RAM and a hard drive on the Hitachi Travelstar nine 500 GB (7200 RPM).   It also has the GeForce Go 7900 GS video card.    Previously, it had Windows XP Professional (32 bit) and worked well.   But, I have three computers in my home and Home Office and would they work better together on my wired home network, so I'm upgrading all three to Windows 7.   My two desktops (a Dimension XPS 420 and the other Dimension XPS 430) seem like they will be no problem to upgrade to Windows 7.   But, this laptop was not on the list of Dell Windows 7 compatibility.   However, the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor that I have downloaded and run seemed to say that it was OK to do a clean install of Windows 7 32-bit and he had only a few minor issues, where it says search the drivers updated from the manufacturer.   Initially, the laptop came with a 100 GB hard drive.   For my use, which becomes very small, so I decided to get the exact same 7200 RPM drive 500 GB size.   This will allow me to do a clean install of the 32 bit Windows 7 OS on the new hard drive and not have to wipe the old disk to do so.   I can just keep the old HD and paste it back whenever I need to get something out of it.

    So, here's my minor problem.   After the transfer of some elements off the coast of the old hard drive, I installed the new 500 GB drive and installed a cleaning of the 32-bit version of Windows 7.    I'm happy to announce that I have not had virtually no problems with installation and everything seems to work fine.   He seems a little more zippy than before and I have not met so far that doesn't seem to work.   I went through most of features and almost everything is superb.   But there is a minor problem, showing in Device Manager.   At least, I think it's a minor problem, but maybe someone can give me feedback to know if she is or not.

    In the Device Manager list, there is a category called "other devices" now and the icon shows a little white circle with an exclamation mark.    When you expand this category, you see two identical entries that say "Base system device" and the icon has a yellow circle with an exclamation mark inside.     I know from experience that it is not a good thing to see items in the device manager that have a yellow circle with an exclamation point.   I clicked on both of them and neither one really tells you what the device is, or who did what is site you would go to a driver.    On the general tab, it has the following information:

    -Device type Other devices

    Reference of the manufacturer- Unknown

                         Location     -         Bus PCI 3, device 1, function 3


    Under device status, it says the following:

                           The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)

    There is no driver selected for the item or a set of device information

    To find a driver for this device, click Update driver.

    Each of the entries seem to be almost the same thing... but not exactly.   The other has the location

    list PCI Bus 3, device 1, function 2... instead of function 1.   This seems to be the only difference.

    I tried the button to update the driver, but that doesn't seem to work.   No matter if you say it looks like your

    computer or to look for a new driver from the internet, it does not find anything.     As I said at the beginning,

    the system seems to work very well... but, given that I don't know what this device is or does, I might be missing something.

    He drives me crazy just have these yellow circles with exclamation point hanging out in my device manager.

    I could really use some help here.    Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    BTW, I just downloaded and installed the driver pack from this ftp location and it worked, even for Windows 8.1 - 64 bit.

    Thanks Steve!

  • Power Inspiron E1705/9400 vs 1525 adapters

    I have an Inspiron 1525 and "inherited" from an Inspiron E1705/9400.  I think I mixed adapter that goes with which computer.  They both have the same PIN for power, so I think that either would work with either, but one of 90 watts and a 65 watts.  I don't think it's important, because I see available at Dell 130 and 180 watt adapters, so I think OVER watt is ok, but is IN watt? Also, I would really like to keep the adapter supplied with the 1525 with it, as it is at least a more recent year.  I sell the E1705/9400 and want the adapter provided to go with the computer.

    I am failry sure the 65w adapter is the 1525, but would like someone to check my reasoning.  And, just for my knowledge, using an adapter 65w on a computer that came with a 90w adapter would cause harm?

    This is the profile for adapters?

    Inspiron E1705 (9400)
    90W - AC Apadter
    PA - 10 Family
    DP/N: DF266
    PA-1900-01 D 3
    Model no: LA90PS0-00

    MARK WHITE:
    CN-ODF266-71615-735-6A3E
    REV A03

    When I look at the parts for this computer, Dell Support, what is available are 90 watt adapters:
    # Part manufacturer: HH44H | Dell reference: 332-1833.
    But, # don't tell me anything, that I don't see something like that on the card itself.
    Also, I see that Dell has "you might also consider" a 130w and an adapter of 180 watts.

    Inspiron 1525
    AC adapter 65 w
    PA - 12 Family
    DP/N DF263
    PA-1650-06 D 3

    white label:
    Model no: LA65NS0-00
    CN-ODF263-71615-87 T-AFCC
    REV A03

    Dell Support, when I look at the parts for this computer, what is available are: First, 90 Watt adapters (same model # as above) and a 130 w, then:
    Refurbished: Assembly 65 Watt AC adapter for certain Dell Inspiron / Latitude / XPS
    KTD DF263 manufacturer
    Reference Dell manufacturer DF263

    I see that the DF263 corresponds to the SP/N of the adapter that I have that I think is the 1525.

    Thank you, Steve

    65W is fine for the 1525 - he was never offered with other than Intel video.

    90W is necessary for the other system, especially if it has an nVidia or an ATI video card in it.

  • Update video card for Inspiron E1705

    Hello, ladies and gentlemen, I have a question that was buzzing around my head somehow. Is it possible that I can improve my video card on my laptop which is Inspiron E1705?

    The specifications of the computer so far is:

    -Intel Core 2 Duo CPU

    -2 GB Ram @ 667 MHz PC-5300 DDR

    -ATI Mobility Radeo X 1400 256 MB

    I do this because its out of warranty now and its too expensive for me no more to buy more powerful laptop or desktop.

    After looking around forums, most of the answers is a big NO and he pushed me a little bit. If there is no chance whatsoever, whatever happened, I bought a defective Inspiron with graphics NVidia 512 mb inside and Exchange my E1705?

    I'm doing this because I'm a quite a player myself and using SolidWorks. The specification that I have is quite satisfiying, but as you know human never satisfy. So is it possible to change the graphics card from another laptop of Dell? If so, what laptop series Dell? If this isn't the case, please indicate why.

    Thanks for your time


  • CD/DVD drive Optiarc unit 5540 a for Inspiron E1705 does not

    My Optiarc unit 5540 a disc is not recognized by Vista.  When a CD or DVD is placed in the drive, it runs but does not read.

    In the Device Manager it shows this message:

    This device cannot start. (Code 10)

    Click on 'Search for solutions' to send data about this device to Microsoft and to see if there is a solution available.

    I tried to search for solutions and it indicates that the drive is up-to-date.  I tried to uninstall and reinstall but get the same messages.  I also went through the Dell troubleshooting and nothing fixed it.

    Any help or idea would be greatly appreciated.

  • drive dvd - rom Inspiron 1720 jumps when streaming

    I was delivered a Vista started Inspiron but very little time after, reformatted and installed my old version of XP.  I don't know how it worked before I made this change, but I know that currently...

    .. whenever I try to stream the content multimedia on a disc (such as CD or DVD) it is very jerky.

    CD

    Looks like it's being shaken like an old walkman when you try to play a disc with no protection to jump.

    DVD

    Similar to jump in and out of the audio track, then the visuals are together but do not play at a uniform PACE.  They speed up then slowly toward down in 2 seconds in time with the bursting of the sound.

    I don't know if it's a driver problem or a hardware problem, but the dell support page could not solve my problem and the resolution of the problems of links seem to be broken.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    Thank you


  • External DVD for Inspiron 7459?

  • Cannot read DVD on Inspiron One 2330

    I bought an Inspiron One 2330 in December and just tried to play a DVD without success.  If I put on a CD with pictures, it does not come to the top, but I can access all the photos if I open the file, but the CD does not come up on top of the office.

    I called the support Office and was informed that there is a software problem on a brand new computer.  Anyone know how I can fix the problem of grubbing-up of DVD on this computer?

    Okay, that's good. At least the drive works. Just need to understand why it will not play.

    What you need to do, is tell Windows what application plays your DVD movies. Click here for an explanation of how to set AutoPlay in Windows 8 options. When you get to the AutoPlay window, next to movies on DVD, you must select your DVD program. It could be something like PowerDVD.

    If you do not find a program to play DVDs on your computer, you can always try VLC Media Player (free). Works fine on Windows 8.

    I have a laptop Dell Inspiron 9300 running Windows XP Media. The laptop no longer recognizes the CD. It's in the Manager for devices with an exclamation point.

  • cannot use the webcam or play dvd Windows Inspiron ONE 2320 8.1

    Hello.

    When I open My Webcam Central on my Inspiron One 2320, I get a nice message on the right hand bottom corner 'not supported Webcam. Hmmmmm. When I try to play a DVD, no luck.

    I use Windows 8.1

    I went into the Manager.Under Imaging device, there is no sign of a driver for the webcam.

    In the section DVD, States of CD-ROM/DVD-ROM HL - DT ST DVDRWBDCT40 N does not properly. When I right click to update him pilot-still no worky.

    Thank you for your help!

    Nora

    The webcam is already installed. Central webcam is software and is also already installed. Look at the illustrations in the Quick Start Guide in the list of books below and see that the camera is located on the bezel at the top of the screen has a cover and light. Remove the cover to see if that helps. If you're still having problems, go to this site to help support more-

  • Satellite A10 - reading of flicker / jerky DVD

    I followed the instructions of shooter of disorder for display problems, namely a flickering display and choppy and audio but have had no luck. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Terry

    I had the same problem on my 1800-814, which appears to have insufficient resources to read a DVD in normal conditions without gasp. I managed to do play it smoothly turning off almost every other program that showed in the lower right toolbar.
    If this is not enough, you might see if you can find anything else running which is not vital for now in Windows Task Manager.

  • dvd burner Inspiron 1300 won't write

    Hi can anyone help dvd writer stopped writing Thursday it was fine today kaput it will be

    write a CD but not dvd thanks for any help

    When you mentioned "so old", something else came to mind.  There are DVD + R and DVD-R discs.  New readers can write on either the + or - type but before about 2003 discs only write to one of these types of discs.  Make sure you use a DVD disc type that corresponds to your DVD drive.
