Laptop Touchpad on Dell Vostro 1015 computer freezing.

Touchpad on Dell Vostro 1015 keeps freezing. When I turned off the laptop for a while, he worked for about 10 seconds and then stop working again. What can I do?

Hello

I would suggest trying the following methods and check if it helps.

Method 1: install the latest Windows Vista compatible touchpad drivers for your laptop by downloading from the Dell Support website and check if that helps:

You can download the drivers for the touchpad from following link:

Method 2: Try these steps described in the article in support of Dell and check if it helps.

Mouse, keyboard or the Touchpad works not properly:

http://support.Dell.com/support/topics/global.aspx/support/KCS/document?docid=277550

    It would take a special function key to turn on the Bluetooth on the computer. You can consult the computer manual or contact Dell for the same thing.

    The volume on my new Vostro1520 is also far too low. I have all the beams completely controls and can barely hear what shows to watch streaming TV. Play MP3s via WMP is not too bad but still very quiet, given that I rode all the way. Is there any solution for this?

    Hello

    What I understand, that is, you already have a free site hosted with Adobe Business catalyst, and now you want to get a more.

    To do so, publish a Muse Adobe Business catalyst site.

    Access to the administration panel and go to settings-> Site Management site, you should see the upgrade option, you will pay for the site, because it is not a free site.

    Let me know if you have any questions, or if I have missed something

  • I have Mozilla Ffox on a Dell Vostro Desktop computer, connected to a HP-Officejet 6500. The printer prints internal drive, but don't print Web sites. The printer ejects only a single sheet of blank paper.

    The version of Firefox 4.0.1 and Windows 7 operating system are
    correctly identified below.
    Still, my printer prints not websites, including Yahoo mail. The printer seems to respond to Web sites, but only ejects a single sheet of blank paper when printing is initialized.

    Just to be sure, everything is covered:

    1. Reset you all the preferences of print.printer , as indicated in brackets in step 2, who were in "BOLD", not only print.print_printer preference?
    2. You you exit Firefox (Firefox button > exit OR file > exit, if you use the Menu bar), and then wait a few seconds and restart Firefox before testing the change according to step 4?
    3. I have a HP 6200 series. Don't forget, if yours is a multifunction printer that you have NOT enabled the fax (i.e., "HP Officejet 6200 series" NOT 'HP Officejet 6200 series fax') in the name field of the printer on the screenshot (CTRL + P).

  • Windows 7 sounds decreases between Applications and devices (Dell Vostro 1015)

    I'm having a problem where all that sound comes from applications Stoops when he goes to the peripheral output. To illustrate the problem, here is a picture of what's going on.

    I turned on and turned off all the improvements, changed options of exclusivity and changed the format of sample rate.
    I know that's not a hardware problem, because sometimes the speaker will be a decent volume, but only temporarily, usually until when I update the volume in firefox or another application that I use for sound.
    The thing that triggers this turns on the improvement of Loudness equalization, change my 24-bit, 192000 Hz sampling rate and by checking the boxes 'allow applications to take exclusive control of this device' and 'give exclusive mode applications priority '.

  • freezing of Dell vostro 3700

    I have a dell vostro that I bought with a bad hard drive. After replacing the hard drive and install windows 7 on it, it started to freeze on me after that I installed the graphics drivers from Nvidia.

    I looked online and I thought it was an overheating issue. then I downloaded speedfan and the temperature was about 76-84

    so I bought the new thermal paste and clean everything inside the laptop.

    After completing the cleaning and put new thermal paste

    the should fell to 50-70, it worked fine for about 1 hour, after he began to freeze up again.

    then I uninstalled the Nvidia driver and the gel stopped.

    I did a bios update and installed all the drivers up to date

    I always have the same question.

    the temperature is about 46, and it freezes.

    When it freezes, I can't do anything. I can hear the fan speed,

    There are no beeps or lights.

    Thanks for the help guys I have set myself.

    It turns out that one of the rams is bad.

    After removing the bad memory stick live. The laptop had the same problem of freezing.

    After that some research it turns out that computer supports DDR3 1066 MHz or 1333 MHz SODIMM DDR3

    Type of ram.

    The bad stick was the original that I bought with which is DDR3 1333 MHz

    And the problem was that the second stick DDR3 12800 MHz.

    So after replace the two matched sticks of DDR3 1333 MHz he has worked for more than 5 hours without any problem. !

  • This computer does not meet the minimum requirements... when installing graphics Intel HD 4000 for my Dell Vostro 5560 with Windows 7 64 bit

    In recent days, I reinstall Windows 7 to my Dell Vostro 5560 and this laptop does not have a driver CD, I downloaded all the required drivers for my laptop directly from the Dell Support Web site. I started to install a step by step. Chipsets, Audio, network, MEI, etc... However, once I try to install graphics, this laptop comes with 2 graphics card, an Intel and another is Nvidia. So, I try to install first Intel. When I click on the exe file, a message box appears saying that «this computer does not meet the minimum requirements...» ». Why is - what happened? I'm sure that my laptop include Intel graphics. Please help me as soon as POSSIBLE. I want to install Windows 7.

    Some drivers of today require at least Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5. Is this possible?

    It is certainly. AMD demanded 4 .NET. x + for their installer drivers for several years already, but I think they have started including with their driver downloads recently.

    -I never noticed if Nvidia use .NET with their drivers Installer, install but .NET 4.5.

    Download Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5 of the official Microsoft Download Center
