• DELL INSPIRON N4010 WEBCAM QUESTIONS: PLEASE HELP... DELL CUSTOMER... AND ANYONE WHO HAS KNOWLEDGE REGARDING MY PROBLEMS...

  I have a Dell Inspiron N4010. Configuration: 1st generation i5 processor with windows 7 home basic 64-bit.

  3 months after the purchase of my laptop, I have updated my Dell webcam central through the applications update service... Shortly after the update, my integrated webcam has started to show problems.

  DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM:

  Shortly after the update of my installed factory Dell webcam central, my integrated webcam has begun to show the problem. webcam was able to start with any application such as Skype or dell central webcam himself. Instead, webcam LED flashes for flicker of a second, and then goes away without any streaming video.  Trying to open it, an error message is displayed: "your webcam can be used by another application. Close the application to launch streaming video".» Initially, the problem was temporary, that is occasionally the webcam began video streaming without any problem, but as the time passed, webcam stopped working almost completely.

  TRIED SOLUTIONS:

  I tried all the solutions mentioned below:

  • I uninstalled the Dell webcam software and reinstalled with the version installed in the factory, supplied on CD with laptop. Uninstalled the webcam via the Device Manager and reinstalled, but without success.
  • I heard that there is a conflict between the Dell face recognition software and dell webcam central. So, I uninstalled the dell face recognition software. After that, the webcam worked for a few days, and there still rebooted problem.
  • I went through various forums online, dell community, customer service, etc. and everything suggested tried but without success. I heard several times that this is not a hardware fault but driver error. Even in a few forums, its says that Creative Technology Limited have not been able to supply webcam drivers compatible with windows 7 64-bit.
  • I even did factory restore my laptop twice, but could not do my webcam works.
  • Then, I decided to format my system and installed windows7 again with the disc that came with my laptop. During this process, I have kept the recovery drive and the untouched OEM disk untouched. I have reinstalled all the drivers in such order as advised by Dell. Despite puts everything in order, I couldn't do my built-in webcam work. More... now I can't even access the Dell factory restore option despite the fact that my recovery disk is intact and it is to have all the files into it!
  • I tried the utility dell online Diagnostics. He could not detect any error webcam!
  • Few days back, I used the dell startup screen diagnostic utility and scanned the built-in webcam to find errors, and my webcam failed in all tests! Here are the screenshots of the tests:

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  I GUESS I GAVE ENOUGH INFORMATION THAT CAN HELP TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM WITH MY DELL INTEGRATED WEBCAM... I ASKED DELL CUSTOMER SERVICE TO HELP ME SOLVE MY PROBLEM OF WEBCAM... AND ALSO THE FACTORY RESTORE INACCESSIBILITY PROBLEM... PLEASE HELP ME...

  AFTER AN ENTIRE WEEK OF UNINSTALLING - REINSTALLING VARIOUS DRIVERS & SOFTWARE FOUND IN THESE FORUMS, SUGGESTIONS INCLUDING REINSTALLING WINDOWS FROM DELL DATA SECURE BACKUP.  THIS IS WHAT I LEARNED.

  My problem was. No supported webcam not connected when I ran dell webcam central. No program could access the webcam. Device Manager showed SPECIFIC DEVICE. Camera suddenly stopped working! I had a little more hair when this problem started.

  I have Inspiron N4010 windows 7 Home premium. Are the drivers for the webcam in windows 7, there is no separate drivers available anywhere. with the exception of some XPS models.

  A post in these forums suggests to abolish the plastic around the display bezel. It's simple. Just carefully go around and remove. It is clipped without screws on my system. This gives access to the webcam hardware. I got dell webcam central on-board. (showing no supported webcam connected!). Gently, I tried to disconnect the connector of the webcam. My intention was to disconnect and reconnect. I barely touched and the fire came and windows immediately started to install device drivers. A beep and an icon in the notification bar popped up. A few minutes, I saw my beautiful mug on the screen to my absolute delight.

  Guys, if you have a problem where Device Manager does not recognize your webcam for most probably, this is a hardware problem. The small rectangular plate on which is mounted the webcam is not properly secured by DEll. It is a DESIGN PROBLEM. The Board is located in place on two small round plastic holders without any screws. It can move easily. The bezel plastic when it is installed itself that holds it in place, but not very effective. When you open and close the lid of the screen, especially if you are taking in the middle where the camera you finally loose connector. That's why some messages will tell you what they camera has stopped working suddenly and then started working by himself all of a sudden. When I put the bezel plastic, it snaps into place, I was able to move the camera, and it stopped working again. A little gentle jiggle got running again and its been since.

  It does not matter what version of central webcam you have in windows 7. It runs on windows Vista service pack 2 compatibility mode. (Find WEBCAMDELL2. EXE file under programs x 86-dellwebcam-dellwebcam Central-dell webcam central. Right-click on the file name. Select Properties. Select the Compatibility tab and run this program in compatibility select windows vista service pack 2).

  If in your case even though there might be a software problem. always try this simple 2 minute solution b4 safe spending frustrating days find the drivers and software. Hope this post helps someone. May work on other systems too! Good luck! and thank you to the guy who led me down this path and misery!

• Graphic problem Dell Inspiron

  I have dell inspiron 17r 5721 i7-3517u 8 GB 1 TB Radeon hd8730m. Windows 7 Ultimate (first of all, I had 8 Win but I hate it like hell, so I send it there where it belongs - hell).

  Can anyone tell me is there a way to tell when my games using Radeon HD 8730 M instead of the Intel HD Graphics 4000? Because each game I played, the value of the graphics settings WAY TOO LOW for Radeon cards. For example the Sims 3 (not to mention it crashes without reason, whenever I play, it is not out of place I think that in this case). For example: resolution 1024 x 768 instead of 1600 x 900? Oh come on.

  Or how to PROPERLY use CCC and Intel graphic Panel so they would work together just as they should? I put but high performance for each game... I do not work. : /

  Then remember that I can use only drivers from dell support. I could not install new to (because I see dell support drivers are not the newest) site Web of AMD and Intel without problems as constant flashing screen, or simply because during the installation error has occurred and it has stopped working.

  HI, I had the same problem but I solved it...

  REALLY EASY!  (after 6 months: P)

  1. update the video drivers from the Dell (all VIDEO PILOTS) website

  http://www.Dell.com/support/drivers/UK/en/ukdhs1/ServiceTag/?s=BSD& ~ CK = mn

  2, install this the site of AMD ATI driver. (AMD CATALYST CONTROL CENTER)

  http://sites.AMD.com/us/Microsoft/Windows-8/pages/Radeon-Windows-8.aspx

  When you configure this new driver you get a new software with that tha name is:

  AMD game evolved... .use this program because this program to find your games on your PC and if you will be launched this program, games games will use a video automaticly ATI card... If you couldt see some of the games in that you have installed, you could find and add manually...   (link to image 2.)

  (you can together optimise settings "grapichs" with some games, and you can't some other games, but don't worry... ALL the GAMES you want started from this program work)

  a few pictures of the program:

• Details of graphics card (5548) Dell Inspiron 15

  I recently bought a dell inspiron 15 (5548) and now im faced with somewhat misleading of the problem with the graphics card. Is - this m265 R7 or R7 m260?

  Latest drivers Dell show as m265, but the games stuck and completely non playable after the A06 bios update. Latest drivers from AMD say good race his m260 and games (ex: CS: go to 45-55 fps).

  Also when buying the guy from the dell store said m260 / m265 is a dedicated graphics card and this message says that it is not, rather, it is just a rendering engine. Thus, evrything goes through processor again and so on...

  Could someone sort this point for me coz its nowhere mentioned on the page of the product it's a converter card. Also when you guys will fix that issue drivers? It is 260 or 265 or just a problem of labelling? IM currently with AMD drivers and it just works.

  Idk it I can post my service here tag. Answer me if its ok.

  I need answers guys...

  The system uses the hybrid video controlled by software.  Only the Intel GPU has a connection to display - all passes video through it on its way to the screen, even if it was made by the AMD GPU.

  Virtually all systems of low - medium range now work this way.  If you need true GPU support, discreet, it is the province of high-end Alienware and Precision mobile workstations.   That's all as many competing systems from other manufacturers.

• Touch screen problem Dell Inspiron 13 7368

  A month back, I bought a dell inspiron 13 7368. The touch screen of the last three days works randomly. Were not able to understand the problem.

• Update graphics card on Dell Inspiron 580 MT

  Hello

  I watch first through similar threads on this site, but I found the newest one was more than a year, so I decided to create a new post

  We have a 6 years, Dell Inspiron 580 Mt. just only because of his age, I'm about to put in a new hard drive, & when doing this, I thought to upgrade or replace the dedicated graphics card.

  At the present time, there is a NVIDIA GeForce G310 512 MB card in there. The computer is used mainly for businesses, so not forced to play on it. The card manages two monitors, two Dell 2007FP with a resolution of 1600 x 1200. For the moment, we're on DVI, one on VGA, but I would like to make two DVI to 'Future Proof' if we replace with a higher resolution larger screens and more.

  What would be a reasonable upgrade graphics card? I would like to find one that would not require an upgrade of the power supply as well.

  Processor is an Intel Core i3 Processor 530(2,93GHz,4MB)

  8 GB of RAM on board

  Suggestions that much appreciated :-)

  Hi traveler Quentin

  Please write to us.

  Here are a few other graphics cards that are compatible with your system.

  nVidia GT220 1 GB

  nVidia 1 GB M207

  AMD Radeon HD 5670 1 GB

  AMD Radeon HD 5450, 1 G

  You can search the specifications of the ports on the vendor's site, before you decide on one.

  The machine with only 300w PSU, so don't worry about changing the PSU.

• Screen problem Dell Inspiron 7537

  I bought my Dell Inspiron 7537 last year only to use it for 7 months before the part of my screen went completely black. There are like 3 or 4 black lines which became bigger and bigger by the day. It was still in warranty, so I took my laptop to my dealer. Its been almost 5 months, my dealer told me that Dell refused to send a replacement screen first. When Dell decided to send a screen it was the wrong. Reference Dell claims now that they don't have the type of screen that needs my model and I have to wait, like 5 months is not enough. I tried to contact Dell without a bit of luck. I hope that get answers here or something. Sorry for my English is not my mother tongue.
  

  Also, is anyone else having the same problem? My dealer told me that they had the same problem with the same model and once again, Dell would not send them a replacement screen.

• Graphic updating the Dell Inspiron 580

  Hello world

  I own a Dell Inspiron 580 and want to update the graphics card, mainly for photoshop but also casual games (SWTOR).

  On the Dell site scouring for hours she was told that the AMD Radeon HD double 7750 1GBx16 PCIe HDMI is a card that is compatible with the Inspiron 580.

  http://www.VisionTek.com/7000-series/7750-Dual-HDMI.html

  In my excitement, I ordered the card immediately, but later by reading the specs, that is to say the power required for the HD 7750 is 350 Watt... and now I am aware that the Inspiron 580 has only a POWER 300 watt PSU.

  It will be possible to run this card safely with the stock power supply?

  I have contributed to the maximum my 8 GB system RAM and I also have a Sound Blaster X - Fi Titanium HD installed.

  Thank you for all you can give me information or advice.

  Hi Ninjasaan,

  Dell has not tested with the AMD Radeon HD 7750 system. You can install the graphics card and it should work fine. However, as you know that the power required by the system of the card is more than the power supply provided with the system, you may need to replace the power supply. The minimum power required by the card system is 400 watts.

  You can replace the power supply of the system with a stock THAT same size PSU and it should work.

  For repair, you can see the link: http://bit.ly/VphDmP.

  I hope this helps. Do not hesitate to answer for any further assistance.

  7750 HD is the best card you can get without upgrading your diet after the HD 6670 and the HD 6570.  Forget the HD 5450 or GT 210 for the games.  You will have much more luck find the display port you want in the HD 7750 against each other.
