Hello

1 does happen with all applications?

2 when was the last time it was working fine?

If you use touchpad, install the drivers for the touchpad and try to reduce the sensitivity and check if it helps. Download the drivers from the link below.

http://support.Dell.com/support/downloads/DriversList.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=Gen&ServiceTag=&SystemID=INS_PNT_PM_1420&OS=WLH&OSL=en&CATID=&impid

After you install the drivers, you will be able to see the icon in the corner of the taskbar. Double-click the icon and you will see options to reduce the sensitivity

  • Dell Inspiron 1420 none audio internal speakers.

    Good day, everyone.

    I have Inspiron 1420 Vista 32 of my brother as a gift. He had before and said he had sound from the moment he bought, but later (he doesn't remember when) the sound just disappeared. I reinstalled the system to the factory settings (press F8 and then restored from the recovery D: drive). No audio through loudspeakers. However, I can hear everything if I connect my headphone via jacks-audio connectors. I reinstalled the drivers for the "drivers and utilities" DVD. Same result. I downloaded the two drivers from the download page of Dell (R157031 and R167846) and tried one by one. Same thing. I ran diagnostic test (F12 >... > system > Custom > Audio Analog test and can hear the sound on the speakers.) I tried to remove the driver, and then restart the computer, so Vista can catch the new material and solve the problem, but after that the new hardware has been detected, Windows driver installed, the result is the same. I checked if the speakers are cut and they were not. I checked the control panel > sounds and saw 2 options on the digital playback, and speakers/headphones (with a green check mark) output device. Tried all the options, but still can't hear anything through speakers, but can through the headphones.

    Guys, before I will let fall and broke it laptop, help. Please, I beg you. I'm sure the solution is close, just need advice.

    I don't know about 1420. The 1520 has a taken audio daughterboard here, Reference Dell: RT882.

    It says Vostro 1500, which is the same as the Inspiron 1520. There is a phone number you can call (1-800-357-3355) to see if it is also for the 1420.

    Good day Jimco,.

    I am very happy and proud of me, because I did.  I did it. I did it.

    I fixed the sound. Yesterday, I spent almost an hour talking with Dell customer service, technical department and * knows who else and I got I need to replace my motherboard ($299). I couldn't find any info on the site of Dell Inspiron 1420 Audio Jack Daughterboard as you have shown to me, so I decided to see him personally.

    Today, I disassembled my laptop complete with MANUAL DELL for INSPIRON 1420. NOTE from the ADMIN: Broken link has been removed / replaced this post by Dell > after I pulled out the mother board, I could find (YES!) Audio Jack daughter Board. I started to chat with Dell and spent an hour trying to explain to them, this girl for Inspiron card exists and that I hold in my hand... I showed them your link... I wanted to just buy the card Audio Jack daughter at home, but they have checked my service tag, asked me if I have waranty, where have I bought this laptop... So, accordingly, I have no help from Dell.

    After that I gave up on them, I put up any piece of aluminum foil, touch my problematic jack and then assemble everything back. And VOILA! Everything is fine. I have a sound input of the internal speaker, I have a jack for headphones, a disabled jack and a microphone jack. TADA!

    Thanks Jim, for your attention and support.  I am really grateful for your help.

    Thanks again. And good luck.

  • His Dell Inspiron 1420, microphone and camera integrated into the laptop does not work after installing Windows 7 Professional

    No sound from my Dell Inspiron 1420 and the microphone and built-in laptop camera do not work after installing Windows 7 Professional 64-bit. My laptop has Windows 7 Vista 32 - bit family premium. My laptop is 64-bit capable and after going through the Upgrade Advisor, I installed Windows 7 64-bit. I can hear sounds when I use a headset plugged into the line-in Jack, but not through the speakers built into the laptop. I already tried new drivers from the Dell website, but I could not find.

    Any help will be much appreciated. Thank you.

    As it is has no drivers 64 bit Windows 7 on Dell Web site, your best chance is to install the 64-bit versions of Vista (if they exist) in compatibility mode, viz:

    Right click on the Vista driver, then select Properties > Compatibility tab. Now choose to run the program in Vista compatibility mode and then apply > OK. Right click on the file and select run as administrator to install it.

  • Problem of driver Bluetooth Dell Inspiron 1420

    I have an Inspiron 1420 old (Windows Vista 32 bit) I use to run a car diagnostic OBD II program that uses a Bluetooth adapter to connect to the vehicle. I installed a drive hard more and Windows 7 32 bit in and I cannot get the driver for the Bluetooth adapter to install. The computer is a Dell Wireless 355 Bluetooth + EDR 2.0 adapter and I have the right driver, R140135, for this adapter and Windows 7, but it does not work. I get a blue and gray box that says: Bluetooth software

    Activate Bluetooth with Fn + F2 keys or radio on/off switch

    Cancel Installation

    And the driver is loading ever. The Bluetooth worked with the original Windows Vista Home Basic, but not now. Can anyone help or am I condemned to reinstall Windows Vista?

    For the Dell Wireless 355 and Windows 7 try R226750.exe which is more recent:

    I just upgraded from Vista Home to Vista Ultmate and my Dell Inspiron reboot correctly... remember to come by saying she does not restart... gives me a lot of options (safe mode,..., normally).  The only way to get it to start is to force a complete power down (holding the button power for 10 seconds) and then try to restart about 3 or 4 times.  Very weird.

    I also no longer work on board are involved.   I went one of the Dell forums and followed exactly the lwhat they said (add drivers in a specific order and restart each time) and it still doesn't work.

    Appreciate any help.
