laptop computer Inspiron 7720 5720 motherboard

I'm doing the repair of computers as a hobby of sorts and I recently had an inspiron 5720 to work on. After a few edits, that I have determined that the BIOS chip is bad, as if the laptop turns off then it takes repeated attempts to anything other than once the bios loads and get you into windows you are fine. Well the good guy gave it to me because I do so much work for him and I really like it, but I soon discovered the empty hard drive Bay, and how I couldn't use it and why (because the 5720 and 7720 use the same chassis). Well now, I want the 7720 and graphics from nvidia with the 2nd hard drive and I was wondering if I could buy a motherboard 7720 and put it in my case 5720. Can I do it? It will be just ' drag right into ' or will there be unforeseen problems? Someone at - it atteppted this? Any information would be appreciated.

I'm glad that someone finally posted this info. I'm trying to return my board 7720 first because she would not engage in my 5720. I was hoping, and sure enough it's a bad Council 7720. Now I'm almost certain. Have you ever done 3D or 3D work? I wonder if it will fly on the screen of 5720 because there is a difference. Any other e advice? I have a 2.4 chip i3, but I think it should work for now. In any case thank you for the info and any updates would be great. ADMIN NOTE: identification of Email deleted by privacy policy >

  • Pre-seed evaluation error 2000-0332, Inspiron 7720

    I have a laptop Dell Inspiron 7720. A few days ago, I have a suggestion of a Dell program to update my BIOS, which I have allowed. Update didn't seem to bring up all additional windows or a progress bar to let me know how would the update, but I don't think too much of it and let the computer do its thing.

    In general I just leave my laptop on nonstop and put to sleep when not in use (I remember reading somewhere on the departure of the user of Windows 8 guide just let it sleep instead of turning it off). Yesterday, I went home for Thanksgiving so that my laptop was in mode 'sleep'. When I tried to turn on my laptop, I noticed that it was no longer in fashion 'sleep' and had put off instead. Not much, I thought, but when I turned it on, I got an error screen in the sense of

    PXE-# Media test failure, check cable of

    PXE-#: exit Intel PXE ROM

    I found myself at the start screen, which allowed me to run the diagnostics. I left running and came across 2000-0332 error code in the form of assessment of pre-boot, who told me that something was wrong with my memory of the video card (abnormality of the video memory integrity test). After a bit of research on this code, it may have something to do with my BIOS and I should try for the flash. However, I wasn't able to do it through USB (I get the error "invalid or damaged bootable partition" when I leave the USB key in start) nor the CD (does not seem to the .exe on the CD is detected).

    I tried to get to the BIOS screen by pressing F2 at Dell logo but I always end up on the same screen which lists me my legacy startup options (I don't get the screens of typical BIOS that allows me to change my default settings, boot order, etc.). The choices listed are removable disk, CD/DVD/CD-RW drive, second disk and network. By pressing F12 does the same thing. I noticed that the hard drive is not listed so I though that maybe something was wrong with my HD, but the evaluation shows that it works very well.

    I'm really in ideas on what to do. If worst comes to worst, I can try to exchange it for another since I'm still in the trading period, but I prefer to keep my laptop current and its information.

    Hi Andresmou,

    I'm sorry for the experience. As the error is related to the video memory, I suggest to install (flash) the latest BIOS and run diagnostic tests. You can download the latest version of the BIOS from the following link by drilling in the Service tag and click on the "Drivers & downloads" tab:
    http://Dell.to/117d6Zu

    Please let me know the results of the test.

  • Try to reinstall Windows 7 on an Inspiron 7720 - "OS not found" error

    Hello

    Then; I have a laptop Dell Inspiron 7720 with a reformatted hard drive and I need to reinstall windows 7. I do not have the original relocation provided with this exact laptop DVD but I don't have any Dell laptop to another (a Studio 1558) and another disc of Windows 7 from a desktop computer (drives and OS that was on the laptop before the failure of HARD drive are all Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - Bit). When I turn on the laptop with a drive and hit F12 and then select ' CD/DVD/CD-RW Drive' in the boot options screen displays "Operating system not found" immediately and remains on the screen until you restart.

    I perform a full diagnostic check and everything going on, I made sure the CD - RW drive is no. 1 in boot priority (not imagine that questions if I manually select it). The HARD drive and CD - RW drive are detectable in the BIOS too... I have no idea what the problem is, any help will be greatly appreciated!

    Many thanks in advance,

    Looks like the optical drive may be defective... You must try the new installation via the USB port. At this point, I would recommend arm SecureBoot and UEFI. Clean then install Windows 10 RS1:

    There are several sites that sell backlit keyboards for the Inspiron 17R 5720, but they all have a warning that says something like this «...» If your laptop computer motherboard does not support the feature of backlit then the backlit function does not work.

    Well, how can I determine if my motherboard supports if the narrowing of my laptop down for 17R 5720 is not clear enough? Many subspecies of 17R 5720 (17R 5720-A, 17R 5720-B, 17R 5720-C)? How much more specific that I can determine if the kb works on the system?

  • Dell Inspiron 17R 5720 does not work with the charger. Charger is not recognized. No problem with charger.

    My Dell Inspiron 17R 5720 does not recognize charger. And unfortunately my warranty expired 2 months ago.
    It was plugged and work in the morning, but then in the afternoon I noticed he was running on battery only. It does not start without battery (charger just plugged).

    1 this is what I did to debug. Me and my brother, we bought the same computers Dell laptops at the same time a year and a bit ago. That's why a debugging purposes, it was good.
    I took my charger and plugged into his computer. And it works. Certainly not the charger problem I guess. And when I plug the charger my computer, green light is still on the charger. And I have the original charger provided with the laptop.

    2. now, laptop is running on battery only, so that means that this motherboard works. I think so.

    3. the next thing I did was charger disconnected and removed the battery from the laptop. Then I pushed and hold the "Power" button for 45 seconds to pay a royalty to the flea market. Charger plugged in but laptop will not start.

    4. then I booted the laptop on battery, went to the BIOS and check if the charger is recognized in the BIOS. No, it does not recognize charger. So, if this isn't a charger so what else can we?

    5 laptop has no strange smells so I don't know if something happened with the motherboard, but I guess that motherboard is ok because it works battery.

    6. I was thinking of updating the BIOS, but I can't do it, because it will be not be updated then the laptop runs on the battery, it needs to be plugged.

    Now I'm stuck. I don't know what I can do. I'm willing to spend a little more money on it to try to fix.

    If someone had such a problem in the past please let me know what you have done and if it fixed it.
    Or if anyone has any other ideas, I will be happy and appreciated the help.

    Hello and sorry for this late post. Just had this problem... If there is nothing wrong with the AC adapter, it's a software problem.

    Close the laptop... Unplug the AC adapter / CC... Remove the battery... Plug the power adapter... Start the laptop... Go to the control panel... Find and select the Device Manager... Batteries, left click... Uninstall Microsoft AC Adapter, uninstall Microsoft ACPI compatible with battery control method...

  • Inspiron 17r - 5720 problems audio - static, hum, during playback of any audio and the sound of the speaker rear

    Hi, I got my laptop for less than a week and there are several problems with the audio. When no matter what audio is supposed to play, only a static noise comes from loudspeakers. This happens when the music plays, or when a sound system is supposed to play.

    Occasionally when I start the computer, the rear speaker makes a wooshing, a static sound (like a TV white noise) and will continue when I open programs.

    Hello. Unplug the power cable from the computer and listen on the batteries. If the audio improve, then you have a problem of material known with this model.

    The problem is documented in the FAQ Audio Choppy/jump. Look in the section for model Inspiron 7720 and 5720.

    FIRST POST OF THIS THREAD

    Greetings to one and all and I thank very you much for your help to help me.

    I have a laptop Dell Inspiron 1501 with Windows Vista Home Basic AMD Mobile Sempron processor. Recently, I tried to upgrade the free version of my Antivir Avira antivirus for a trial version, but during the process, I lost my internet connection. Sometimes, my network shows another "Local and Internet" and "Local" only. However, in both cases I am not able to connect to the Internet. Whenever I try to open a page in the browser, it is blank and nothing appears on the screen... I also try to reinstall the operating system, but since I can't access the Internet when I reached the point of the process called "GET IMPORTANT updates to UPDATE for the INSTALLATION" where I have to choose between two options a) go online to get the latest updates (recommended) and b) do not get the latest updates for facilities , I can only opt for the other that says that the installation may fail. Therefore, it seems that I cannot even reinstall the operating system. In addition, I often small windows to appear on my screen as "msnmsgr.exe" "skype.exe" "OSA.exe" file corrupted with such messages "the file C:\Users\ myname\AppData\Local\Temp directory is corrupted and unreadable. Please run the chkdsk utility ". However, the problem is I can't run the check disk, because every time I have it try I got the following message "checking file system on C, the type of files is NTFS one of your disks needs to be checked for consistency. You can cancel the disk check, but it is strongly recommended that you continue"until I read the whole message again appears" the disk check was cancelled ". I am not able to get the help and Support Windows open, but on the window I only heard the message "you have lost your connection using Windows and support". I don't know what to get my computer works well and my connection internet back. Someone here tell me step by step what to do to solve all the problems mentioned above? I am very grateful to each of you. Please, note that from my computer I have not access to Internet, so tell me any solution which will take me to use my computer to connect to the Internet. Sorry for the length of my post.

    PS at the beginning of this problem I used to have errors with their code on the screen of my laptop, but unfortunately I did not take account of their > more, for to appear the problem worsens my computer was a bit slow

    SECOND POST OF THIS THREAD

    First of all, thanks a lot to you all and especially to the Lorien-SpiritX and their insightful answers. As they both suggest to me I tried sfc/scannow and I received the following message on my laptop screen "start the phase of checking system scan audit 44% complete Windows resource protection could not perform the requested operation"

    I did also check CHKDSK/f/r utility Office and I received the following message "the type of the file system is NTFS cannot lock drive current CHKDSK cannot run because the volume is in use by another process. You want to schedule this volume to check the next time the system restarts "and I answered Yes

    In addition, I tried to use my CD to reinstall my operating, but if it starts well by copying files to the end of the process, when the second stage of the process "expand our files" starts, it stops at 27% and never goes further.

    These are all questions, added to all that I already mentioned in my first post with the same title

    This looks like failing hardware, not software. I would look at the hard drive first, and then the RAM and the motherboard.

    If the computer is still under warranty, contact Dell technical support.

    On tests of hardware failures often alleged swapping parts by parts checked. If you can not do the test yourself and/or are uncomfortable opening your computer, take the machine to a professional computer repair shop (not your local equivalent of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad). If possible, have all your data backed up before taking the machine into a shop.

  • (Inspiron 7720) Cannot be started on the installation of Windows 8 media in UEFI

    Hello

    I just got a Dell's Inspiron 7720 (computers laptops 17 ") running on Windows 8. As usual, I want to reinstall Windows 8 myself to ensure that I have a clean install (and to be sure, I'll be able to do if I change my HARD drive). I want to do in UEFI mode and not in Legacy mode.

    • I tried to boot on Dell Windows 8 DVD (requested by phone, IE 8 64-bit Windows) by pressing F12 at startup: the only options are "Windows Boot Manager" and "Network Boot. No way to boot to DVD, Windows starts automatically.

    I went in the "Bios" by pressing F2 at startup (Startup tab):

    • I tried to disable "Secure Boot": no result, kept this option disabled.
    • I activated the Option Rom legacy: a new menu "Legacy Boot: ' allows me to start on the drive of DVD, but housing starts of start-up Mode Legacy, which is not allow me to install Windows 8: the installer says my partition table is GPT, so I can't select any partition on my discs to install the OS.
    • I tried to add a boot option with the name of the Boot Option as ' CD/DVD/CD-RW Drive': is in the list of system files "PciRoot (0x0) / Pci (0x1F, 0 x 2) /Sata (0x3, 0x0, 0x0) /CD" or 2 entries like "PciRoot (0x0) / Pci (0x1F, 0 x 2) /Sata (0x3, 0x0, 0x0) /HD'." ""» I tried all. I left the "File name" line empty. No results: the CD begins to spin at the start and then the operating system starts 2 seconds later. I tried repeatedly pressing "Enter" immediately after the choice of my new boot entry in F12 menu, same results.
    • I tried everything above with the operating system on a USB stick (formatted to Fat32 using this http://www.servethehome.com/uefi-bootable-usb-drive-windows-8-windows-server-2012/), no result. The light on the USB is indicating activity for 2 seconds, then turns off when Windows starts.
    • I tried to start my DVD and my USB on a new Inspiron 660 (office): a line is automatically added in the F12 boot menu and I can start on the DVD or USB in UEFI mode (and I can reinstall Windows), so my devices seem not to be the problem.
    I spent two hours on the phone with a Dell technician, and he was not able to solve my problem.
    It seems to me that Dell has not even attempted to check whether their own DVD of Installation OS works on their computer
    I think I need to write something in the "File name" box when you add a new Boot Option. But why? I forgot something?
    Thank you in advance for the time you spent reading this.

    OK I solved the problem. It's very simple, but obviously the bios needs an update: the one-time boot menu (the one launched by pressing F12 at startup) does not work in the UEFI.

    So, how to start on the DVD in UEFI mode:

    • Insert the DVD into the drive
    • Start your computer by pressing F2 to enter the Bios
    • Go to the Startup tab
    • Add a boot option with the name of the Boot Option as ' CD/DVD/CD-RW Drive' and check that the 'CD' in the end enabled, as "PciRoot (0x0) / Pci (0x1F, 0 x 2) /Sata (0x3, 0x0, 0x0) /CD'." Let the empty file name entry.
    • Put the new entry before 'Starting Windows Management' in the UEFI Boot section.
    • Save and restart.
    • When asked, press a key to boot from the DVD. DO NOT USE one-time F12 BOOT MENU: by SELECTING ' CD/DVD/CD-RW Drive' will NOT WORK.
    When Windows is reinstalled correctly, just change the new boot order or delete the boot entry you created before. Never use the single start menu unless you want to start in Legacy mode (it works).
    I can't believe I lost so much time on this... I hope this will help.

    Is possible to connect this laptop external monitor 7720 to two (don't mind if computer screen is disabled or duplicate).

    I have two samsung 21 '' monitor (HD).

    If so, how?

    Hi, I would like to participate.

    I wonder if one of you can confirm that it is impossible to use this inspiron 7720 in a configuration triple monitor (no duplication but only stretching from the screen)? I wonder because it is usually possible with maps of optimus and win7/8 but not this time - could only manage to run 2 of the three.

    And to answer riscy00: Why use a splitter? Simply use HDMI and vga, and turn off the screen of the laptop. I did it today.
