• Update the Bios on Latitude D630?

  I just upgraded my Latitude D630 by installing Windows 7 Home Premium and increase the RAM to 4 GB. The installation went well and everything seems to work well. I notice that the version of the BIOS is currently A04, but the latest version of Dell's A19. I would win anything performance update the BIOS to version A19, or am I better leave well enough alone?

  It is best to leave it alone. BIOS updates must be made before the hardware upgrades, but extra memory is not new material. If it all works, you are fine. Some updates to the bios are problems that you don't have, or you don't need improvements. Given that your model is of 2008-9, there rarely need a bios update.

  Dell says this about this bios which is 2010 with an update in 2013.

  Dell recommends the customer to review details about the update to determine if it applies to your system. The update contains changes that impact only certain configurations, or provides new features that may does not apply to your environment.

• Latitude D630 laptop: can it really deal with 8 GB of RAM?

  Hello

  Help a recent immigrant from China, who came with his son. Before his departure from China, the father of the son gives him a Latitude D630 (a very pretty, with the graphics chip of NVS135M). The OS (XP) is in Chinese, so it's a real adventure trying to put/clean the system. In any case, I have a few questions on the D630.

  1. looks like the system is capable of running Vista 64 bit, but I think that's only if the system has 4 GB or more RAM installed. The current system has 2 GB installed (2 X1GB), and the owner wants to get a new OS for this system (which is my life a lot easier, because it will be at least in English). If she gets WIndows 7, should she get Windows 7 32-bit or 64-bit? She is willing to spring for more RAM, so if WIndows 7 64 bit is the best way to go, advises him to get 1 X 4 gigabits, let the second slot open more RAM later. The Reference Dell manual says 8 GB of RAM capable; is that mean that it will take 8 GB of RAM, or that he may be able to take 8GB at some point in the future if they move to the update of the BIOS?

  2. If someone has used 4 GB modules in this system, please let me know what modules have worked for you, and more importantly, who didn't.

  I can tell you from personal experience that Win 7 64 bit on a D630 (with T7500 processor) can manage the 6 GB of RAM quite well. He came with 2x2gb modules SODIMM and I replaced the bottom one (that easy) immediately with a 4 GB SODIMM.

  I recently opened the top to see what would be involved in exchanging the T7500 for a T9500 and reach the top of the page SODIMM is easy enough that I put a 4GB in there, too. I can't not bad, so when I return for CPU swap, I'm going to do.

  If you haven't already done so, you need really to update the bios to A17. I think it's back to A13 or so that enabled more than 4 GB, so uf which does not add focus RAM will do nothing, and some users have reported the failed to start. A17 will fix it.

• Dell Latitude d630 and Windows 7

  Does anyone know why Dell does not support Win7 on a Dell Latitude d630?

  This machine was built with Windows Vista 32 - bit o/s on 24 November 2008. The date of the original invoice was on May 22, 2009. Win7 was not released until October 2009. The guy I bought it from had installed Win7 and I don't have the disks of backup or restore with it. It works fine except it doesn't have enough RAM, (which is not a big deal). The problems occurred when I tried to update the drivers and found that there is no driver for this model with Win7. When I called Dell, they said that they do not support Win7 on this laptop.

  So I was just curious to know if anyone knew why? I won't lose money, upgrading the RAM if Win7 is going to be a problem.

  Although W7x86 lists 1 GB as the minimum, I found 2GB for the sweet spot minimum.

  More RAM is always a good investment, and even if you decide not to run W7 on this PC (I hope that your friend bought the license outright to pass on to you), more RAM will be beneficial to XP, Ubuntu or another OS, you decide to run on it.  However, more RAM is unable to completely cure your slow, because this might be a result (partially or totally) infections by malware, software problems, corruption of the file system or a bad hard drive... a reinstall to your specifications may be in order.

  You can also try searching the forums (or Internet) to get an idea of real world experiences.  I think that there should be no problem... I managed a few s D830 (similar systems - a step towards the top, but even age/line) at work who has installed and have run W7 flawless.

• Dell Latitude D630 - lack of wireless network connection

  I have a laptop Dell Latitude D630 and we re-installed a new version of Windows XP on top an old XP version.  When the installation is complete, I went into network connections and all I have is the connection to the LAN.  There is no wireless network connection.  I went to Device Manager and it shows a number of conflicts in 'other devices '.  Under network adapters, it shows only the LAN adapter.  How to bring back the wireless network connection?

  Thank you

  Rick,

  You've been a great help.  I have downloaded and run the updates in this order and am now able to use the wireless device and connect to the internet.  I kept your notes for later use when I have to do this again.

  ===========================================

  Think about it an absolute must - manually update your drivers.

  Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

  This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

  This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

  -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
  For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
  Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
  http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

  For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
  Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
  your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
  Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
  Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

  Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
  with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

  Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
  Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
  BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
  each installation.

  Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
  presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
  in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
  necessary.

  Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
  manually by model.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.
  http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/HT/driverdlmfgr.htm

  Installation and update of drivers under Windows 7 (updated drivers manually using the methods above
  It is preferable to ensure that the latest drivers from the manufacturer of system and device manufacturers are located)
  http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/43216-installing-updating-drivers-7-a.html

  If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
  Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
  older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
  get new manually if you wish.

  2. You did it any significant hardware or change software on the computer before this problem?
  3. You are hosting the game server or simply connect to someone else?

  As you said, the question may arise due to the third-party firewall security software installed on your system or corrupt network drivers. To refine the question, I would like to connect once the system via a connection internet wired , i.e. via the connection cable directly inserted into the port on your system.

• The HDD in Latitude D630 upgrade to 1 TB?

  Hello

  I have a question and can't find the answer in the docs of Latitude D630 published.

  I think to upgrade the HARD drive in my D630 and can't help but notice the Western Digital 1 TB drives. Question is simply whether someone knows if this HARD drive would lie in the D630?

  I am aware that the 1 TB drive has a profile that is slightly larger than the low-capacity discs (12.5 mm 9.5 mm as far as I can tell). But I can't find anything in the docs Dell to indicate the authorized maximum hard drive form factor.

  Thank you

  No, it doesn't - you need a thinner drive or 9.5 mm.

  I loaded Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit on a Dell Latitude D630.  Is there a compatible with the D630 AND Windows 7 Home 32 bit Dell QuickSet driver?

  I tried to use the serial number, [ADMIN NOTE: Service tag deleted by the privacy policy], in order to obtain the correct driver from the quick set button, but the pilot was offered, R182249, would not load.  The Dell site also does not list Windows 7 in the drop down menu to the operating system.  R182249 is listed as pilot QuickSet for Vista 32 or 64 bit.

  Any suggestions?

  Thank you.

  R182249 is for Vista 64 bit only; It will not work on 32 bit OS.

  R180762 should load on Windows 7 32 bit, it worked fine for me on a D820.
