• Reference Dell place 11 Pro - problems with the PXE boot

  Before buying a large number of these tablets (11 Pro 7130 venue), I have to ensure that they can be deployed from MS Configmgr (2012). So far, I have no chance for our test model to perform a PXE boot.

  Following the instructions documented by Dell here:

  

  I have a USB dongle to Ethernet Lenovo based on the AX88772B chipset... that is supported according to the documentation. However, try to perform a PXE boot, the screen hangs on the message:

  -----------

  After awhile, it starts up and then hard disk. BIOS version is A14.

• Reference Dell E6420 randomly not SSD detection at startup

  Specifications of the computer:

  Dell Latitude E6420, Intel Core i5 2520 M, 2 x 4 GB = 8 GB of RAM, Nvidia NVS 4200 M, 250GB HDD, Win 7 Pro 64, Bios A23

  The value of operation SATA AHCI and not quick start. I have 3 of these computers. They are all out of warranty.

  I replaced the original 7mm Hitachi 250 GB for the Intel 535 240 GB SSD HARD drive.

  I used Acronis True Image 2016 to clone the hard disk SSD. Cloning process is very much like on any other computer.

  The problem is that each cold 4 or 5 boots the computer cannot find the SSD drive. Restarting the computer solves the problem of that time. I have to find a solution. I want to sell them with a SSD and not with a HARD drive.

  I tried the things:

  Update the Bios of the A14 to A23.

  Put a spacer of 2mm on the SSD and of course the resettlement of the SSD.

  Exchange for another Intel 535 120 and 240 GB.

  Clean install of windows I knew was a waste of time because it does not affect the BIOS does not detect not things.

  Googling the problem for hours.

  Call dell?

  Use another brand of SSD? He probobly won't make any difference to look at other threads.

  Use a HARD drive? Last resort. I can't stand slow hard disks regularly.

  Reference Dell E6420 seems to work with a Samsung 850 Evo 250 GB instead of the Intel 535 very well. Tested over a period of 3 months with no problems. Threw 535 readers intel in the desktop instead.

• Dell Inspiron 3537, few problems

  Hello.

  I have an old Dell Inspiron 3537 of a few weeks. Was first Win8, but I have the update Win8.1.

  After that I signed up for laptop computer, the next step was to my C: partition on both sides of the partition, partition C (OS) and D (Data). After that, I installed successfully all the programs I need. And after a few days problems began with a few BSoD. There are few problems and I'll explain all of them.

  My Dell checkup "troubleshooting blue screen" reports every day one or more BSoD with explanation:
  "The unknown hit-and-run driver (C:Windows/system32/drivers/atikmdag.sys) seems to have caused a system crash. Perform the tasks below to help prevent unexpected stops in the future".

  On the same health check of my Dell, I try to run "PC Checkup", and everything seems OK, no reported problem. A personalized analysis on a single card, ATI (ATI Radeon HD8850) video and the result is 'passed '.
  I run also build in DELL diagnostics (boot menu) and there were no errors, and also Dell diagnostics online and everything was fine.

  I try to install the new driver from DELL (AMD Radeon HD 8850 M pilot 13.151.0.0) website, but during the installation screen blinked several times and then went away. I think it's OK because the video driver installed. I left phone for an hour to "complete installation", but noting happened. I turned off laptop by pressing ON / OFF button for 5 seconds, but after this laptop won't restart. Here, I noticed another problem that I will share with you in the moment. Fortunately, I have installed Acronis True Image 2014 so I was able to restore a system. BTW, same version of the driver is already installed according to the "MSINFO32).

  Now, my system works, I still see the BSoD warning in my Dell Checkup, but actually I don't really see this BSoD. Strange.
  If I click with the right button on the desktop and then click on "Property Graphics" or "Configure switchable graphics", I get this warning:

  

  Second problem. My laptop during "BLACKOUT" explained beforehand, I tried to use Windows Recovery. I tried "Refresh" and "Resettlement" and both times I got the message:

  "Could not find the recovery environment. "Insert the recovery media or your Windows installation and restart your PC with the media.

  If I try to use "Backup and recovery of Dell", I received the message:

  "Dell backup / restore could not detect the Partition Recovery on this computer." It may be missing or damaged. To recover your computer to the original factory condition and restore the recovery partition, please use your system recovery disk"etc. etc...

  I don't have any coz discs that OS was preinstaled. So, basically I can't use all the facilities to recover my laptop because I have no media or recovery factory recovery disc. Fortunately, I'm using Acronis, but it's not a point. I want something to recover my original system, factory condition.

  In fact, Windows catering facilities are OK and I can restore to a point, I created.

  BTW, my hard drive is partitioned on 7 partitions. Initially, there were 6 partitions with immense C: partition. I shared this one on two.

  

  And also, since this BSoD is probably caused by the video driver, how can I safely to update this driver. As explained previously, I had after the first test disaster. Can I try to install the new driver for AMD Radeon HD 8850 M from the ATI site?

  Sorry for the question so long. If you have additional questions, I'll be more than happy to answer.

  I hope that I will get answers, thanks in advance!

  Peek into the registry to find clues.

  Disable the automatic restart in case of system error and see if you can capture a message of error checking bug (BSOD) with useful information.  Automatic restart in the event of system failure can be disabled in the F8 advanced boot menu, or you can turn it off in system properties.

  1. right click on my computer and select Properties.
  2 - Click on the Advanced tab, and then click on the Start button and recovery settings.
  3 clear the automatically restart box and OK your way out system properties.

  Start the computer in a Clean Boot State, if the computer starts successfully in a clean boot state, then one of your user programs most likely problems, look in the case of journal of indexes.

• Dell Inspiron 15 HDD 2000-01 42 error code

  Dell Inspiron 15 HDD 2000-01 42 error code

  A few weeks ago, my laptop was working fine but the next day, my laptop wouldn't pass the Dell logo when turned on. I ran diagnostics on it and gave me the following results:

  Test results: Fail

  Error code: 2000-01 42

  Validation: 123661

  I'd appreciate it if someone could tell me exactly the problem with the HARD drive, I need to replace, or there may be a wiring problem?

  Thank you.

  Zaharaq

  Error code 2000-0142 indicates a failing hard drive / has failed, you can try to remove and reinstall the hard drive, and then re-run the diagnostic tests and see if you receive the same error.

  If the same error is received, the hard drive has failed and you need to replace it, followed by reinstalling windows, then loading the drivers and applications.

• Reference Dell 3110cn of Laserjet + os El Capitan

  My MacBook Pro (2009) stopped my Dell printer. News on this please.

  Hi deaconjo,

  as I had the same problem, I found a solution for my El Capitan MacPro 2008:

  Search for the following installation program:

  3130cn_Installer_And_Application_Dell_A04_MAC.dmg

  Inside this package you will find the driver for 10.7 and higher. After installing the package I could add an IP printer with this driver:

  Reference Dell 3130cn Color Laser v3017.104 PS

  With this driver installed, I can use my printer Dell 3110cn without problem.

  Perhaps it might help you too.

  Hey guys, more of a statement than a question. If you have a Dell Sonicwall and users do "found no appropriate group" of course the same user does not exist as a local user and a domain user. This will cause problems. Took me a while to understand that >.<>

  Good thought.

• Reference Dell MD3200i correct editing with IP system and the NIC for faster network speeds

  Hi all

  I worked on this project for a while now. I did a lot of research and have contacted Dell several times. I need help.

  I have 2 sets of identical to use for Hyper-V clusters servers. We bought a Dell MD3200i in November, we also bought a Dell 5424 switch and a Cisco SLM2048 switch. These servers have Real Tek 2 network cards for iSCSI Jumbo frames is 9 k

  The Dell MD3200i is two SAN controllers. Dell 5424 is the iSCSI optimized switch and Cisco is a 48 switch ports. iSCSI is on its own network that nothing else is connected to it. (There is an Iomega NAS and a promise Vtrak SAN Tech with all current domain of execution with iSCSI controller)

  Reference Dell MD3200i controller 0 Port 0 192.168.130.101 controller 1 Port 0 192.168.131.101

  Controller controller Port 1 0 192.168.130.102 1 1 192.168.131.102

  Controller controller Port 2 0 192.168.130.103 1 2 192.168.131.103

  Controller controller Port 3 0 192.168.130.103 1-3 192.168.131.104

  Cisco switch has 1 VLAN n ° 1 on it and the 130 subnet inside elements. There are 8 connections to the switch. 4 controller 0 and 1 of each of the servers. It has an IP of 192.168.132.4, but that switch IP does not make difference. Lighted Jumbo frames

  Dell switch has 2 of #1 for various things such as the domain controller, Vtrack, and SIN. Subnet 2 is 131 and has a total of 8 connectors inside. 4 in 1 controller and 1 from each of the servers. Lighted Jumbo frames. The switch IP address is 192.168.132.2

  Groups of servers. Each server node running Windows 2008 R2 SP1 and running hyper-v with virtual server clusters / storage folder on them. 2 Realtek NIC with Jumbo frames made 9 k ProdNode1 and ProdNode2 have 12 Core i7 CPU with 12 GB memory, EXNode1 and ExNode2 have 12 Core i7 CPU with 24 GB of memory.

  ProdNode1 iSCSI-1 192.168.130.110 ProdNode1 iSCSI-2 192.168.131.110

  ProdNode2 iSCSI-1 192.168.130.120 ProdNode2 iSCSI-2 192.168.131.120

  ExNode1 iSCSI-1 192.168.130.130 ExNode1 iSCSI-2 192.168.131.130

  ExNode2 iSCSI-1 192.168.130.140 ExNode2 iSCSI-2 192.168.131.140

  Portal discovery iSCSI on ProdNode1 went to 192.168.130.110 192.168.130.101 and 192.168.131.110 192.168.131.101 each of the other servers Discovery Portal have been pairs like this.

  iSCSI tab click on add 8 MPIO sessions at each of the ports on the MD3200i from Dell, target. For example, I added 1 session of 192.168.130.101 using it. Add Session,--> activate--> Advanced Mutlipath--> Local--> IP 192.168.130.110 initiator and target 192.168.131.101 iSCSI adapter. This is repeated on all servers. 4 connections for each NIC.

  The network is very slow. It revolved around 2 to 4 MB/MIN and it should be much faster. Initially, we had only the Cisco switch with only 1 VLAN and everything connected directly to it. I read somewhere that MPIO has been the problem, so I went through the same configuration but does not verify the MPIO checkbox above. Once this has been done, the network speed went up to 1.5 GB/Min but modular storage Dell was not happy, and virtual servers would fail and the connection is not very stable.

  What wrong with my setup? Can I directly home and fix the servers directly to the PowerVault and will make stable and allow for failover and redundancy NIC? I need to get this stable so I can move with something else.

• Reference Dell WinPE 5.0 driver CAB

  I have SCCM SP1 R2 and the Dell customer integration Pack 3.1 2012.  When I try to import the ACR 5 of WinPE from the SCCM console, it fails with 'the selected driver package is incompatible.

  Does anyone else have this problem?  My understanding is that SCCM R2 supports Win 8.1, which is what Win PE5 comes.

  Thanks in advance

  Hi Tony,.

  Reference Dell Customer Integration Pack 3.1 is not support SCCM SP1 R2 2012. CAB WinPE cannot be imported via CPID 3.1 and it has to be injected for the boot image. Also try the last 5.0 WinPE that is available in the link below

• Reference Dell - never!

  I bought two computers in July 2009. I had problems with both of them. Inspiron mini had a problem with wireless, Dell said was my fault. and refused to fix it until I told them. I wanted to return it them. Finally they gave me a free support and support person said that there is something wrong with the computer I received.  Something other than the computer is unbalanced and wobbles when he types. I sent the compture to get fixed and it never got fixed.  I thought I would just deal with it because you get what you pay for.

  In January my XPS studio crashed. Screen has become sell contact of Virgin material and the damage. So I called dell. It took them a month to figure out, and indeed there is something wrong witht the computer. Thus broke computer I couldn't use it for a month. Finally I got the new memory and hard new dirve. The next day, my computer crashed. He spent a month trying to say Dell that something was wrong with my computer. All that time I spent 30-75 minutes on the phone with technical support. It was time that I called 4 days a week. I bought long and costly warrenties on my computer, including hardware and software. Not to mention cell phone chargers. Finally I conviced someone as my computer is really broken and they agreed to send me another computer. I'll go at least a computer that works. Understandable that it would take some time to get my replacement. My replacement date came and went. I called Dell again 45 minutes on the phone.  Then I've been transferred several times. The rep that I talked to said that they have not yet started doing my replacement.  It has been frustrating and I think that he was treated in a disrespectful way, what happened to quality customer service.

  On top of that today I was warned that even if the company has already approved my payment of $ 1,500, they now can't seem to find a record of the transaction and consider my past due account.  Also, they refused to refund my money and couldn't give me any assurance that the situation would be resolved.

  Anyone has any advice on the purchase of an Apple, I hear they have great customer service and wonderful tech support.

  I just wanted you to know that you aren't the only one with all these problems.  I am struggling with for more than a month to replace my computer. Finally, on March 1, they said they would and they have placed an order.  Now a week later it stil is not delivered because they can't find a 'HARD' for my computer.  REFERENCE DELL SUCKS AND I WIL NEVER BUY ANOTHER.    I put a post of "do NOT GET ALL the ANSWERS.
