Video strategy for Inspiron 15 5000 - need Insight

I have a fairly new Dell Inspiron 15 5000. It has two 'cards' video; is a better term "graphics cards". One an AMD Radeon R5 M335 [graphics card], the other is an Intel(r) HD Graphics 520 [graphics card].

Both can be configured in a pop-up Windows 10 that appear on the display screen.

I have check the documentation and found no information about the use of this material. I would appreciate an idea on how best to use them. And, where to find details of how, when they work.

I know this sounds like a very basic question... is, but I would like to get more insight is now better to use.

Thanks a lot, a lot for any help.

It is a hybrid video system - the GPU from Intel is still active;  the AMD GPU can be configured using the menu that you noted in the surge in video performance in games and other applications.  She, of course, also will significantly reduce your battery life - so use it when needed, leaving idle when it is not.

You can choose to enable the AMD GPU on a per application basis.

  • Upgrade memory for Inspiron 13 5000 series (2 in 1)

    Hi, this may sound a stupid question, but I recently got at the entrance of range Inspiron 13, 5000 series (i3, 4 GB of Ram). I want to upgrade the memory because it is a bit slow. Site of Dell, said that this model has only a single Ram slot. I said he made two. I am a clumsy oaf and don't want to open the case unnecessarily (and break these clumsy little clicky "lips"). Can someone tell me if there is a crack or two?

    I ask because, if there is just one, I'm going to 16, if it's two, I'll go for a 8 make a total of 12.

    See you soon,.

    If it is an Inspiron 5368 (more recent 2-in-1 from Aug 2016), it will take up to two 8 G DDR4 SODIMM, total g 16.

    There are other models of this series with different memory configurations, so check that yours is a 5368 before purchasing memory:

  • Cannot find or download video drivers for Inspiron 531

    Hi guys

    System:

    • Inspiron 531
    • AMD Athlon Dual Core 6000 + 3.01 GHz
    • Windows Vista 32-bit SP2
    • NVIDIA GeForce 6150SE nForce 430

    Earlier, the display on two monitors connected to my Inspiron (Dell 24 "& Dell 22") deleted and enter Power Saving mode.

    Both screens are also connected to my XPS 8300 and they work very well with this system. I also checked the two cables and they work too.

    The monitors are usually connected to my Inspiron like this:

    • The 24 "monitor is connected to my Inspiron with a DVI - D to DVI - D cable
    • The 22 "monitor is connected through a DVI - D to VGA cable (the slot of DVI - D on the PC to the monitor VGA slot)

    However, if I run live of the Inspiron, its connected monitor VGA slot to works fine.

    The display shows a screen of information who advised me to click OK to complete the installation of the "new" NVIDIA software I have automatic updates turned off and I certainly did not begin any procedure update.

    Anyway, I clicked 'OK' and reconnected the monitors as normal to think everything would be ok, but they still do not work.

    I had a problem not long after I got this PC when I updated the video drivers from NVIDIA direct - I could run basically only to screen at resolution 800 x 600. I contacted the Support technique Dell and they said, it would be best to always get the updates driver directly from Dell. I did this and the problem was solved.

    I tried to find the relevant video drivers on the Dell site, but for some reason any my Inspiron no longer appears on my record details, only my most recent XPS. I tried to re - register, but I keep saying that my Service tag is no longer supported. I found anywhere else on this site where I can download the appropriate drivers.

    So I'm stuck - ideally I want to download the drivers for my dual monitor Setup works as it was before. I tried to do a system restore, but I don't know if it will work. In fact, I cling to the wide trying anything in case I find myself accidentally disabling VGA, power supply, so I won't be able to do anything with my system.

    Why Dell make life so difficult for someone who has purchased a product from them once his warrany has expired?

    Thanks for any help.

    What happens if you start in Mode safe?  -Restart, and then press F8 before Windows starts to load and choose Safe Mode from the menu.

    Assume correctly that it is an add-in PCI-e graphics card? A map is not... ??

    You can try this:

    1. Power off, unplug
    2. Press / hold the power button for about 15 sec.
    3. Carefully reinstall the video card in its niche.
    4. Then remove the battery from motherboard and the power button press / hold again to ~ 30 sec
    5. Reinstall the battery (right-side-to the top) and see if it works now

    NOTE: It may be a good idea to open BIOS setup (reboot and press F2) before trying the above. Copy down all the settings of the BIOS because the battery will reset the BIOS default settings. After reinstalling the battery, restart and press F2 and confirm that the settings match what you noted. Be sure to save changes before exiting the Setup program.

  • Update video card for Inspiron E1705

    Hello, ladies and gentlemen, I have a question that was buzzing around my head somehow. Is it possible that I can improve my video card on my laptop which is Inspiron E1705?

    The specifications of the computer so far is:

    -Intel Core 2 Duo CPU

    -2 GB Ram @ 667 MHz PC-5300 DDR

    -ATI Mobility Radeo X 1400 256 MB

    I do this because its out of warranty now and its too expensive for me no more to buy more powerful laptop or desktop.

    After looking around forums, most of the answers is a big NO and he pushed me a little bit. If there is no chance whatsoever, whatever happened, I bought a defective Inspiron with graphics NVidia 512 mb inside and Exchange my E1705?

    I'm doing this because I'm a quite a player myself and using SolidWorks. The specification that I have is quite satisfiying, but as you know human never satisfy. So is it possible to change the graphics card from another laptop of Dell? If so, what laptop series Dell? If this isn't the case, please indicate why.

    Thanks for your time


  • Best video card for Satellite A100 driver needed

    ATI and Toshiba have drivers.

  • Pavilion HPE 440F: need new video card for HPE-440F

    Salvation;

    The ATI Radeon HD 5570 in my Pavilion HPE 440F appears to be dead, or is doing. The fan has stopped working and I think the map has overheated.

    I'm running Windows 7 x 64.

    Anyway - I would like to install a new card - and best video. It is, since it is HP, I bet that not all cards are compatible with my system.

    For example, I can buy an ATI Radeon SR-290, which gets much higher than my current card pass mark. Or maybe even a NVidia card might be a better value for the money.

    Can someone point me to a list of compatible video cards for my system?

    Thank you

    Ubuntu_Kid

    p.s. My Linux box is not an HP.

    Ubuntu_Kid, welcome to the forum.

    The problem you are having is, most of the newer video cards require UEFI in the motherboard instead of a standard BIOS.  HP didn't start using UEFI until mid-October 2012.  Your computer was released on August 26, 2010.

    Some of the manufacturers have developed a VBIOS that will allow their cards to work with legacy BIOS.  I know that the EVGA has done with some of their cards.  I suggest to call their Tech Support (1888-880-3842) to see if they have a card that will work with your computer.

    Please click on the Thumbs up button '+' if I helped you and click on "Accept as Solution" If your problem is resolved.

    I recently bought a MacPro in early 2008 (3.0 Ghz) at a sale of surplus.

    The hard drive has been wiped, and no installation of MacOS disks have been included; So I need to use software to run it.

    What is my best strategy for loading software for this machine? Is there some version of Mac OS that I need to load at the beginning?

    When I start the mac and now pressed the keys command + R, it seems to be an accessible partition, named "System of Base of Mac OS X" in the disk1 directory. Is this some kind of way to re-install some version of the operating system?

  • I am not able to change the video quality for you tube. There are only two options 360 and Auto. Please help me.

    Hi I am experiencing strange problem for 15 to 20 days and I am not able to change the video quality for you tube. There are only two options 360 and Auto. Help me please if you can because I have a slow internet connection and I want to play video at 240, as it was before. Thanks in advance for your help.

    Could check you whether YouTube is to serve its HTML5 player or the player based on Flash? If you right click on the drive, short a context menu should appear. If the full Firefox context menu is displayed, press and release the ALT key to erase that. The last line of the menu short usually indicates which player he is.

    I'll assume HTML5 because...

    On Windows 7, Firefox should show a wide range of formats in the HTML5 player. However, if some of the features of media are disabled, preventing video MP4 decoding, then YouTube offers only 360 p (with WebM coding).

    If you have intentionally disabled Media Foundation and/or DirectShow in topic: config, then perhaps you would prefer to use the YouTube Flash Player? There are a few Add-ons that can force YouTube to serve you a Flash drive. Either of them will do, you don't need both:
