Latest Dell Audio is missing the button 'Show meters. (Windows 10, Dell XPS 8700)

EDIT: Rewritten for clarity

Driver Realtek ALC3861 Audio (worm) 6.0.1.7525, A00 for Windows 10, it is no longer a button labeled 'Show meters' under speakers/Headphones > Maxx Pro Audio in the lower right corner (see attached screenshot). This button in previous versions of the driver for Windows 7 opens a new window with sliders to balance the front speakers and rear in a surround Setup.

What I did:

Update my OS 7 to 10 and set to update drivers Realtek audio as a result - to the version mentioned above.

What I expected:

The button 'Show meters' would be present in the most recent driver Realtek.

What really happened:

After the upgrade to the latest driver, the 'Show meters' button is gone.

I reinstalled the latest driver several times and nothing helps and tried the driver from Windows 8.1 and by default with Realtek with worse affects (Audio Dell window missing most of the items/drop options, etc.)

If anyone would know how to solve the problem, if it is intentional, or that worsen it, I would appreciate it.

I think I should be more careful. In Control Panel > Sound > playback > select the Realtek device > properties > levels there are specific changes, I need. I don't know why I didn't notice until now. Could explain why there was no button 'Show meters"in this version, but I thought that Windows 7 has also had the same upgrade and there was audio Dell upgrade as well.

I'll still with a new soundcard from Creative, however, saw a $70 super nice which looks great and seems to have features to match.

    Mailnews.message_display.disable_remote_image controls all remote content.
    I hope change permissions.default.image will make the button reappears.

    Note that the next version of Thunderbird should have a brand new remote content management system.

  • Dell XPS 8700 - failure of the keyboard when the bios boot (but not when Windows is loaded)

    My Dell XPS 8700 has 10 Windows and a Logitech Keyboard wireless, connected by USB. The keyboard works absolutely fine when Windows has loaded. I have the latest version of the bios, A11.

    However, when the computer is turned on and starts the bios start, it displays 'Keyboard Failure' on the screen for about half a second. When I try to go into the bios setup by pressing "F2" at the counter (I keep typing "F2" from the moment when I press the power button on the computer), there is no answer. The "keyboard failure" and inability to enter the bios setup seems to happen if I do a cold immediately after a stop start, a cold start after the computer is turned off for an extended period or a reboot.

    I tried to connect the wired keyboard original Dell one of the USB ports on the front of the unit (without disconnecting the wireless keyboard) with the same problem at the start of the bios.

    I encountered this problem on versions of bios A11 both A03. I know that in the past, although I don't remember when - I was able to enter the bios setup by pressing "F2".

    Any thoughts on how to solve this problem?

    You can try and reset the CMOS. It will return your settings to factory settings, but not the version. Usually, this erases these problems because CMOS stores data editable such as your wireless keyboard settings. BIOS stores the information about the basic material that is unchangable as your keyboard usb, mouse and other essential equipment. If you notice, when you just plugin any keyboard and mouse, its recognized at startup. Your needs software to run wireless device and that is stored in the CMOS.

    So once reset you the CMOS, you may need to then install the wireless software.

    Good luck.

  • Windows 8.1 does not appear in the store Windows Dell XPS 8700

    My desktop computer Dell XPS 8700 arrived yesterday, but I can't upgrade Windows 8 to 8.1 of Windows. I went to several Microsoft Web sites where they say on a Windows update and I have to have before the upgrade is displayed in the Microsoft store. I checked I did all Windows updates available including
    you need to upgrade to 8.1. I tried "wsreset.exe" running to clear the cache of Windows store. This is not a business system. It's a regular OEM Dell version of Windows 8 that came with the machine. No matter what I do the update does not appear in the Windows store. I thought maybe since I was using the same Microsoft account for my laptop I already upgraded 8 to 8.1 that maybe he thought I was already updated. So I created a new account of Microsoft, created a new user, delete the old user and tried to get the upgrade as a Microsoft account fresh and a user. Still no luck. I saw another person posting a message on a forum somewhere that had a similar problem on this exact model as the only answer that I was to go to the Microsoft page that tells you to do what I've done. Any suggestions or websites where I could crosspost this problem would be much appreciated.

    I copied and pasted the steps below from another thread. The procedure worked for me both my 8700 s after that I had tried just about every other proposed solutions. I hope that the procedure will work for you too (assuming that you have not already tried).

    (1) uninstall KB2871389 and restart.

    (2) download the update of Microsoft KB2871389--> http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40098

    (3) manually install the KB2871389 update and reboot.

    (4) you must now (I hope) see the 8.1 update in the Windows store.

  • DELL XPS 8700 compatible with the monitor Samsung Syncmaster 2232 office

    HI - can anyone confirm that the DELL XPS 8700 desktop computer is compatible with the monitor Samsung Syncmaster 2232.

    Already, I have the monitor, but need a new processor unit.

    Thank you...

    Hi yydelilah,

    The monitor has VGA and DVI ports.

    By default, XPS 8700 comes with HDMI and display port.  If the system is configured with a discrete card, and this card has DVI/VGA port, you will be able to connect to this monitor.

  • Dell XPS 8700 - A11 Bios - boot

    I have a Dell XPS 8700. I upgraded from Windows 8.1 to 10. As recommended, I've also updated the bios to A11 (the latest version of the bios). I have a processor i7, 24 GB of RAM and an SSD as boot drive - so it should be a very fast machine.

    The startup time for just the bios (i.e. excluding the windows 10) is 14 seconds - crazy for a long time. It takes more time for the bios to start it makes for the time it takes for 10 Windows to start. Note that the bios startup time is confirmed by opening the Task Manager and looking at the Startup tab.

    My previous bios version was A03, who was still slow to start (8 seconds for the bios to start), but better than the A11. I see that some of the other bios versions after A03 were also slow to launch and I've deliberately downgraded these versions to A03 to improve startup performance.

    How can this bios startup time to accelerate because it does not seem normal to take so long?

    Note: I have external USB hard drives and I tried to disconnect these and it does impact not bios boot time.

    When you say the startup time of 6-7 seconds, you're talking at that time:

    1. Press the button market at the moment, the BIOS is ready to load Windows, but excluding the loading of Windows. or
    2. to completely load Windows, but excluding the BIOS load game; or
    3. Press the button of power both on Windows is fully loaded (i.e. 1 + 2)?

    For 1, I get about 13 seconds, I think, for 2, I get about 40 seconds, to be 53 seconds in total. On paper my PC should be very fast, so I guess that--and kind of hoping if my system is massively under fulfillment - your done 6-7 seconds simply reference to 1.

    Thank you.

  • Failures of start-up and recovery Dell XPS 8700

    The system is 2 years old.  No recovery image was never created.

    Here are the original symptoms.

    1. cannot start Windows 8.1 on Dell XPS 8700.
    2 OS refresh fails.
    3. OS restore points fail.
    4. OS auto repair fails.
    5 restart the failure of Options (Safe Mode, start Debug mode).
    6. command prompt fails (cannot find all administrator accounts).

    Done so far:

    Created a bootable flash drive. After changing the BIOS setting to boot using the USB key, first of all, the PC started successfully. Then, I was able to access the command prompt and save the user data files.

    Then, I went back into the BIOS and changed the boot order to the internal HARD drive. I rebooted and finally started a reset from the PC (factory restore). After the reset process has reached 4%, I got a reset failure message. A subsequent reboot then gave me an error message file BCD 0xc000000d "the BCD file is missing information". The next restart gave, I can best recall, 'no partition not found on the internal hard drives And I could see no longer the menu of UEFI, just the BIOS (A06) firmware. After change the order of boot and boot to the flash drive, I could see that a lot of files apparently had been marked for deletion on the C: drive as user profiles did not appear. At one point, the flash player had become the C: drive and HARD drive is X:. But which cleared up later. After getting the quick C: folder to the HARD drive, I published the following commands Bootrec /fixmbr and /fixboot, Bootrec scanos Bootrec rebuildbcd Bootrec. After trying to start once more on the internal HARD disk, I had another variant of the BCD file error, 0xc00000098 "the BCD file contains no valid information for the operating system".

    Any chance of recovery in this situation?  Otherwise, I guess we will have to get a replacement drive (that is, SSD) and a copy of Windows 10.   Thank you.

    Hi 2Tallinva,

    Yes, that sounds like a hard disk failure. You can try this site to download a disc Windows 8.1. Of course, a free update to win 10 is better than paying for an OS you already entitled to.

  • Dell XPS 8700 no power

    Have a Dell XPS 8700 I bought in October 2013.  The other day while my daughter was doing her homework the Tower just closed.  Will not supply this time.  The green light on the back of the power supply does not light.  The led "Power to the" yellow inside the East.

    When I press the button reset, next to green light, at the back of the power supply, the light turns on fans in the case operate one puts the optical drive.  So, it is the power supply or the card mother kaput?  Or is there some waay to put things?  Tried the thing "press and hold the power button / stop for 25 sec ' without success, and also left it unplugged overnight.

    Remove the battery on the motherboard CMOS. Leave, try it for a few seconds then put back in. Try to start the computer after. The green light on the power supply goes off while the computer is not turned on. As the light does not illuminate and things go when you press the test button, your diet should be fine. It could be your motherboard, before we know try resetting the CMOS battery, as I mentioned above. I hope this helps!

  • Dell XPS 8700 how turn on?

    I have a desktop computer tower Dell XPS-8700 newish PC. He died during the other days of power outage, and now I can't turn it back on. It doesn't seem to be any power button visible on the front of the unit. On the back, just below the power connector is a small push button. If I push the fans and things seem to start that going on, but as soon as I release the button it turns off again. How can I activate this PC?

    I can't believe I have to ask this question after 30 years of use of PCs.

  • Problem connecting-up monitor Dell XPS 8700 S2715H

    I just purchased the Dell XPS 8700 (i7-4790) / 16 GB and the 27 '' Dell monitor S2715H.  The graphics card is Nvidia GeForce GTX 745.

    The monitor turns on but that's it.  And I see that the PC power supply light is also on.  But there is no picture.

    After spending several hours in my own train, then with Technical Support Dell on phone that says I need a VGA cable (tried).  But I STILL get the error after (in italics below).

    My question is THAT I have to get my monitor working.  So far I have not been able to use this new Dell system.  Is someone can you PLEASE help me solve this problem.

    Apart from supply cable of the monitor, there are only two other cables that came, i.e. HDMI and a USB cable.  I tried both and then the single HDMI, then the only USB.  I also tried the VGA connection by itself and with the HDMI.  NOTHING HAS WORKED SO FAR.   Help, please:

    ATTENTION: No supported video Configuration detected

    Action is required

     This computer has an add-in graphics card and the monitor cable is plugged into the integrated video connector.

     To connect the cable from the monitor into the graphics add-in card:

    1. shut down the computer

    2. plug the cable from the monitor into the graphics add-in card connector. This may require a video card or the video adapter cable. (provided with the system)

    3. turn on the computer.

     This message should not appear after you complete these steps.  For more information or assistance, please refer to the system documentation.

     Please press the power button to turn the system off.

    Use the HDMI port on the discreet graphics card and do not connect what either on the integrated graphics card connector.

  • DELL XPS 8700 Motherboard power LED

    Hello

    I recently bought a DELL XPS 8700 desktop computer.

    Recently, I noticed that there is this orange light shining inside even when I shut down my PC.

    I opened it and realized that it's this LED power on the motherboard.

    Maybe I've just not noticed it before, but is - it normal that the power light is on constantly?

    Thank you!

    Quite normal. That LED means that the motherboard is powered "flea" power supply as long as the power supply is plugged into an outlet active.

    If you unplug the PC of the plug and press / hold down the power button for about 15 seconds, the LED on the motherboard turns off.

    Find something else to worry about.

  • CPU COOLER DELL XPS 8700

    What are the coolers possible cpu that you can install on the card mother dell xps 8700 motherboard without any editing fancy ghetto. As if it were a normal MOM?

    The XPS 8500, the forerunner of the XPS 8700, has standard spacing Socket 1155. Taken 1150 share spacing of the 1155, and so according to me that a spare cooler should run.

    Cooler Master Vortex was perfect on my XPS 8500 motherboard, and I assume that the same would hold true for a XPS 8700. You will use the type of optical drive screws to fix the cooler for the Board of directors rather than fragile plastic bugs.

    Looking at a motherboard XPS 8700 on eBay, I can see a standard header for the fan on the CPU at four pins, as well as the XPS 8500.

  • 3 installation of monitors on Dell XPS 8700

    Hello

    I realize that he had already given a few questions and answers on this topic, but I'm still a little confused, because this kind of thing is not my strong point.  I would be very happy to help here.

    I just got a new Dell XPS 8700 with a videocard of NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 745 4 GB DDR3.  I'm going to need to have a 3 monitor configuration in the near future and I was wondering the best way to make this work.  The video card has 1 VGA - HDMI, DVI-D-1 and 1.  Separated from the video card, there is an another HDMI and a Displayport.

    I have not completely made my decision between 3-23 "or 2-23" with 1-27 "immediately.  (Will not be the fanciest monitors in the world). Exodus 3 - Dell S2340M or 2 of those and pick-up and Ultrasharp for fun.

    I'm not a gamer.  I'm a trader.  I can't manage any lag when updating. I'm not too concerned about the image is as clear as possible.

    Thank you much for the help.

    You can use as well the equipped with an Intel HD4600 video card and a video card discreet if Intel Multi display is enabled in the Bios. With the Intel option enabled multi-display, HDMI on Board will be the primary display and ports on the discrete card screen will become secondary display. Read this article before you proceed.
