My Inspiron is OWNED
For the last two weeks that my laptop (Dell Inspiron N5010) was on certain occasions only randomly urged the same key number one after the other nonstop. Sometimes it's the sign button more, sometimes it's the space bar, sometimes it's the comma, etc.. I do stop by closing my computer. Recently (April 15, 2013) my computer did different things, he started with the key comma spazzing and I did what I always did and shut down my computer. When everything loaded, I tried to re position a window (when you hover over the upper part of the window, hold the left click and drag it around), but for some reason any window only wanted to go to the right, as he had a mind of its own (where the part OWNED). I would try to drag it somewhere else, but the right is where he wanted to go. If I managed to close my laptop once again, hoping that it would work. When it reopened, it had stopped, but now everything I tried to right click Open. I tried to open the Start button in the lower left corner, and it would be open for less than a millisecond and then close. I really don't know what to do. Any suggestion would be great.

How I've updated my BIOS on my computer laptop inspiron 1526 so I can use a purchased new battery
How to switch my BIOS for my Dell Inspiron 1526 laptop so I can use the new battery I bought, no Dell?
Hi Theresaframe,
What operating system is installed on the computer?
Procedures for updating the BIOS vary depending on the manufacturer. See the documentation provided with your computer or go to the website of the manufacturer of the computer.
BIOS: Frequently asked questions
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/BIOS-frequently-asked-questions
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/BIOS-frequently-asked-questionshttp://www.Dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/19
Note: BIOS change / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly.

I get the grey Dell Inspiron screen at startup instead of my profile, and all my display settings and startup programs disappeared. This corrects sometimes when I restart and sometimes I get the grey screen again. This morning (after downloading some updates last night), I got a blue screen Uni with my own icons, but all my parameters display including my image of the office had been reset. I did a system restore once before and that fixes the problem, but the problem started again with the gray Inspiron screen yesterday.
We have not seen messages indicating that the recent updates are causing problems to user profile, rarely if ever I heard of updates causing corruption of the user profiles.
Common causes of corruption of the repeated profiles:
1. bad or, failing hard drive, no spare parts no sectors left. Run chkdsk on the drive. Get a diagnostic utility of disk from the web site of the manufacturer of the disc and check the disc.
2 - bad RAM, run a memory diagnostic test.
3 - viruses and other such parasites.
4 applications - bad or ill-conceived.
5-bad or incomplete discharge of the user, ususally caused by #4 hive. Something is trying to write to the user hive or maintain the registry handles open when the computer is currently stopped. Install the Microsoft user profile Hive Cleanup service

Can I use software VISTA of an old computer that I own on another computer I own?
I am retired a HP laptop with VISTA (factory installed).
Can I legally use the VISTA software to upgrade an old Inspiron laptop computer with XP? I will NOT use the HP computer more in the future - so the VISTA would be used on a single computer - even if not the original one.
Hello
Sorry, but you cannot use this software elsewhere.
Pre-installed Licenses OEM (HP, Acer, etc.) and the Microsoft System Builder OEM licenses are tied to the first machine that they are installed on and channels of license when this machine dies.
OEM licenses are not transferable.
If you had bought your own license for sale at retail of Windows and installed yourself, yes you might be transferred to another computer.

Dell Inspiron does not fully start
I have a Dell Inspiron 530 s with Windows Vista Home Basic. Last fall I had restored it and after that, it worked perfectly until about 2 months ago. After that I turned on the computer, it goes to the Dell logo, as usual, and then after that, it gives me a message saying press F1 to continue. I would tap it, then he would show a black screen with a flashing underscore. After a while it would not boot as usual. Recently, when underscore no longer blinks, he asked no longer to start as usual. It gives me a message saying that no boot device is discoverable and press ENTER to try again. I'll enter, but the same message arrives. I'll have to then turn off and on and keep pressing F1 until she FINALLY begins. With the changeover days, it takes more time and more time so that it can start and enter the Windows logo. I'm afraid that one day, it just won't start. I tried and tried looking for my problem but I don't know what it is. One popular response that came was my CMOS battery may go dead. So, I went and bought this past weekend. That didn't solve it. It still does start all the way. I also can't access the Menu ahead of time by pressing F8. I notice that rarely my computer will lead me to the Boot Manager to start upward on its own and from there I can start Windows normally and it starts without a problem. But I don't know how get you to this page manually. By pressing the bar space does not either. If I keep just press these keys, my computer makes a noise clicking / beep and nothing more. I was also wondering if a restore factory could get rid of this problem and make it again fresh. But again, one of the conditions for a factory restore is to disable and press F8 for Advanced Options and he won't be on the menu for me. So I'm stuck pretty well.
Overall, my problem is that my computer initializes more normally. I have to keep turning market until he finally gives in which case it can take hours. I desperately need help. I hope that I was fairly accurate. My computer is no longer under warranty and I can't afford any premium or other security package. Please, it's my only computer, and that's all what I have to work with. Thank you.Hello
A computer is supposed to make a single "beep" at startup.
If that in fact more than one, this indicates a hardware problem.
You will need to go to the Dell website and know what BIOS that you have in your computer model.
Then check in these links 'beep' error codes know what hardware has problems.

Remove Vista and install XP SP2 on Dell Inspiron 1545 laptop
I bought a laptop Inspiron-1545 Dell in 2009.
It has Vista and Office 2007.
I recently got admitted to a course where they r with Windows XP and Office 2003 in their program.
So I need to downgrade my OS from Vista to XP.
Thanks for giving me tips for this in details.
(My Dell warranty period is over).
Hi somali.cc,
/ 3GB is fine. Once you have installed Microsoft Virtual PC and start creating a virtual machine only allocate 1 GB of memory for the virtual machine. This will give you then 1 GB for XP and the other 2 GB for your Vista system.
Here is the download link for Virtual PC 2007 http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyId=04D26402-3199-48A3-AFA2-2DC0B40A73B6&displaylang=en

Inspiron 1501 wireless head-scratcher
Hey,.
Well, here's the deal. I have an Inspiron 1501 Windows XP. I reformatted it successfully, install all drivers in the correct order and so have a computer with wireless internet to work. But here's the difficult thing, my uncle asked me to do the same process for its Inspiron 1501 because its wireless internet did not work for well over a year and has been reduced with an internet flash USB stick. I followed the same process I did my own, but after 3 or 4 complete system reformat, it remains the same. The computer does not even recognize that there is even an adapter wireless network in the system, as the Device Manager lists the "Broadcom 440 x 10/100 Integrated Controller" as the single network adapter. Can anyone help with this? I'm PUZZLED!
Thank you very much
Curtis
Hi Curtis,.
The Device Manager will be on the list of the devices that are connected to the computer. It seems that Device Manager is not able to detect the wireless card. This happens if the cable connected to the card is damaged or disconnected. Most likely, it must be disconnected. You can try reseating the cables.
To reconnect the cable:
1. turn OFF the laptop, remove all sources of energy such as the power adapter AC, battery etc...
2. remove the keyboard for instructions download the manual at the following link:
3. After you remove the keyboard, you should be able to locate the wireless Mini Card its in the upper right corner. Check the cable connections, reinstall even better for them.
4. replace the keyboard and check in Device Manager, if its able to detect the card, install the driver and it should work.
5. If it still does not work, it's a hardware problem, the wireless card needs to be replaced.

Inspiron 570 ultimate 'Uber' Upgrade Guide including Overclocking
After seeing several users asking for help on this topic and to lose contact with the users, I decided it's time to gather all the information and make it as enjoyable as possible. When the project is completed, I will state here duly filled (it will take me some time to put together it). For now, it is
WORK IN PROGRESS
Little warning first to users who still hold any type of guarantee for their Inspiron. Upgrade the HARD drive (HDD), RAM (memory) and the installation of video card would not void your warranty, PSU (Power Supply Unit) could be questionable. Dell does not generally recommend change CPU (processors) [as soon as you think about changing your motherboard, your PC is therefore more Dell, unless she card mother Dell from another model, but then it's Frankenstein, in this case you can get help in the forum of harware Tom, but not here], however I would like to present the list of tested processors Dell and there will be another 2 processors not tested by Dell. In addition, you can change the case of do your prettiest Inspiron or to improve cooling, I would say - it could void the warranty as well. Finally, at the end, I would like to talk about overclocking, it would be just not the cancellation of guarantees, it puts you at my mercy, because I'm the only one left who did this and always ready to help others, remember, as soon as you decide to go this way, you could a danger to PC - it might even ignite and burn your place , so basically you do so at your own risk. I'm thinking, if you overclock Inspiron 570 you agree with the above possibilities and would not hold the grudge (or hold responsible) against me or any other Member of this forum if you become homeless because of the fire caused by overclocking, LOL.
I'll start with the regions less invasive and easier to the more difficult and dangerous.
The guide consists of the following
Part 1. Upgrade of RAM.
Part 2. Video card update.
Part 3. POWER supply upgrade
Part 4. Upgrade the processor (CPU)
Part 5. Cooling of the processor and a general cooling in the original case.
Part 6. Cooling of the processor and a general cooling in the larger case.
Part 7. Overclocking.
If I missed something I go back and fix it, I would try to keep it all in one thread. When I consider the complete Guide, then I would say.
First things first - information. All the Inspiron 570 manualand next page easy to download driver Driver download page not so easy.
Before asking questions, than I guess you read the corresponding manuals, so I must not explain, for example, how to open your case, well I hope you understand what I mean.
Part 1. Upgrade of RAM.
According to the manuals official Dell Inspiron 570 is limited to 8 GB memory 1333 MHz maximum, but it was found that 16 GB 1333 MHz is recognized, faster RAM would have slowed at 1333 MHz. So far, no one has complained that their RAM (manufacturers) were not recognized by Dell. In general, it is recommended to use Crucial, however, I used Corsair and have not noticed any problems. Also, try to avoid the large heat spreaders, especially if you intend to use the fan Tower configuration push - pull - push fan can block access to the nearest slots of RAM CPU cooler.
I would try to explain.
Unfortunately, this is the only photo where you can see the situation.
This is the pattern with the same color RAM code.
4 DIMM 1 - could probably be affected by large CPU Cooler
5 DIMM 2 - can be affected by the large CPU Cooler
6 DIMM 3 - will not be affected by the large CPU Cooler
7 DIMM 4 - will not be affected by the large CPU Cooler

DIMM1Part 2. Video card update.
If you know, our Inspiron has only 300 watt PSU, so without changing the highest supply updated Sapphire video card (recommend) 7750, or cheaper and somewhat less powerful version is 6670, for anything beyond what you should have to upgrade your power supply.
Some people have asked if the graphics card and RAM slots would be "intercept", the answer is no. However, to change or add RAM, video card must be removed to allow RAM Jack clamps open, this is approximate photo below, the maximum length of the map is approximately 12 inches or 30 cm, in this case video card would go under HARD drive so you should measure top set.
Watch you 2 SATA slots beside the Video card - they could be covered by the Vcard radiator, if this is the case you should use angle sata cables.
I realized that I did not cover a lot of cards video here. So a little more. "" As see you I placed 550 MSI TI Cyclone OC for its unique cooling ability, this map is very large, but short, measurements are "x (H)" x (W) (L) ', 8.27 "x 5.51" x 1.38 ". I'll add more cards here as users will report.
XFX Double D FX - 787 a SADC Radeon HD 7870 GHz Edition 2 GB 256 - bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x 16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support video card 9.5 "x 4.4" x 1.5 ". "
Part 3. Update on power supply.
This is a general guide for power supply recommended by MSI, I would add at least 50 watt to your final decision, however more better, some say 100 watts is very good idea, argues here. Any standard power supply fits inside (it may be little required some metal parts of the case folding, but nothing major). Just make sure that a new block of POWER 24 pin or 20 + 4 pin, MOBO (motherboard) main power connector plus 4 connector pins supply assistants, 4 cables SATA power and at least a 6-pin PSU video card. It may be modular or not. Modular are much more expensive, regular, you'd have to improvise cables underground of the road maintenance.
Here are some pictures of the regular POWER supply, so you see that cable management can be a headache.
To my knowledge the factory recommended PSU is XFX, OCZ, Seasonic, Enermax and Corsair, I see so many complains of Thermaltake and Antec. Store brands and surprisingly cheap PSU should be avoided if you want stability and assurance that nothing will burn or power supply will last long with the same characteristics over time.
Then, I used extreme PSU calculator to show that our standard power can support 7750 and Phenom 965 together, no PSU upgrade needed, if no overclock.
Type of system: 1 physical CPU Motherboard: Regular - Desktop CPU Socket: Socket AM3 CPU: AMD Phenom II X 4 965 3400 MHz Deneb C3 Use of CPU utilization (TDP): 90% TDP RAM: 2 sticks DDR2 SDRAM Video card 1: AMD Radeon HD 7750 Regular SATA: 2 hard drives DVD - RW / DVD + RW Drive: 1 disc USB: 4 devices Fans Regular: 2 92mm fans; LED: 1 fan 92mm; Keyboard and mouse: Yes The system load: 90% Minimum POWER supply power consumption: 252 watts Recommended power: 302 watts Inspiron 570 stock PSU is 300 watts and it is known that this number is somewhat underestimated, so 302 watt is okay. Now, the power supply was in my Inspiron 570 model was HIPRO HP-P3017F3, here are the specs for anyone to chew.
+ 5V = 22 a, + 12 v = 5V aux, 18 a, + 3.3V = 17 a = 2A, - 12V = 0. 8A; Special comment "+ 5V and + 3.3V do MUST NOT EXCEED 160 W.
If you need a replacement, you can get it here again for $ 38. Not exactly the same, but very similar.
TyswhatCan I overclock the AMD Athlon II X 2 250 processor with the motherboard stock stock? Or it doesn't work?
Only the Black Edition processors, unfortunately (already). Yours is not the case.
