First time posting although I lurked for a month or more… I recently bought my first laptop a Dell Inspiron 6000. I choose it specifically because of the price. I have used a IBM Thinkpads in the past but they are too expensive for me. Anyway, I didn't receive an installation/restoration disk for...

When I turn on my computer all I get is the large "Dell" and the website address. It just stops there. Also, nothing seems to run within the computer, the "Dell" sign shows up almost like the computer was on and I just turned on the monitor. I have tried pushing F2 but nothing happens

I have a Dell 4550, using Windows XP. I just had to replace the hard drive. The installation went fine except that I have not been able to load two programs: Paint Shop Pro 9 and SnagIt. I just cannot get either program to work. When I run PSP, nothing happens - no new screen comes up (however...

Hi there! Today I ordered the first time at DELL a PC (Dimension 3000 Small Business Class). So I was surprised, that I will get only within 3 days my order number. So I suppose that I have to wait for delivery much longer. What are typical delivery times for DELL in Germany? Thx in advance and...

Thanks for the response. I did end up trying lots of different combinations of OpenManage applications from the Dell support website and was never able to get Array Manager to see my RAID volume. When I go to Array Manager Utilities/Versions, it says the PERC 2/SC cannot be supported at the current...

My son has a Dell Dim 3000 system. He uses AOL. He has a strange problem (probably OT, but...): When he goes to a sight that requires a user ID and Password, the following happens: First time, no problem. Any future attempts, it says page can't be found.

I, currently, do not make use of the Power Schemes on my Dell 8300 and would like a bit of information regarding usage of these options. When my PC is idle and it's rather warm in the room, the noise of of the PC (fans) is quite loud. I'm wondering if making use of the Power Schemes options would...

Hi all, I have a PowerEdge 2400 that just started beeping. It says one of the two 18G scsi drives in it was not being recognized on bootup. It still boots and runs fine because the two drives are mirrored so it is running off the one that is still good (but it still beeps). I would like to put...

Have had a number of Dell laptops and have always been pleased with tech support until it got to the point that I could not decipher the accent of most of the technicians. Recently was experiencing unacceptably loud noises from the fan on my Inspiron 8200. Went to Dell Support and engaged in an...

Hmmm The post i posted here last Sat/Sun did not appear here??? So here's my plea for help again. I bought a Dell Latitude cp m233st from a private seller. The problem i'm having with it is when i hit the power button to boot up, the Indicator Lights ome on and i can hear the CD-ROM Module...

Looking for opinions of that LCD monitor. How good is it for playing game? Anybody connected an Xbox to it? Is that even possible? What about the resolution, etc.. What about watching movies (TV/DVD) on it? And lastly, I would like to connect a desktop PC to it. I don't think my graphic card...

Can I change the sound played at bootup on a GX200, Win98SE? I have the sound of a TV tube being smashed and considerit more suitable than the default John Williamsy strings. TIA.

Anyone know how to track an order online when that order was placed from the Refurbished pages? All I've got is a six-digit reference number but no customer number...! JJ (UK)

Problem just started today. Windows Xp patches are up to date. When I try to shut down it shuts down for about 5 - 10 seconds and then starts up again with lights blinking and the hard drive going on and off cycling. I have to hold the start button to finally kill it.

I thought I would post this info, in case someone else observes the same behavior. My Dell 2001FP (20" LCD display) has run beautifully for almost exactly a year. According to my records, I installed it on 7/22/2004. Over the weekend, the unit started to run at 1024x768 over its DVI interface,...

Hi. I didn't know where to post this but I am so fed up with Dell sales tactic that I will post it anywhere. It regards Dell's refurbish sales tactic. I have been checking for any refurbish Inspiron on a daily basis for a friend and eventually saw some on sales at their Malaysia website on...
