I have an Inspiron 5559 laptop, that I got in June 2017, shipped with Windows 10 Home Premium (1709 at the time?). I used the on board "Create a recovery drive" program then to make a USB recovery drive. All went fine. About a year and a half later, as I'm organizing all my USB drives, I...

The minimal HD memory Latitude 3180 at the outlet store is pretty cheap ($250, less on coupon days) and offers win10 pro. I got one to be able to play modern youtube videos, which XP can't deal with. Use Edge to download Firefox and you're good to go. Turn off all the awful win10 malware...

An Inspiron 5755 crashed while running a BIOS udpate (from A08 to A12). None of the solutions that work for some Dells work with this one. I called Dell but they won't tell me the price to reflash the BIOS. There's a base $39.99 to arrange shipping for them to then look at it and provide a...

Hi, Since the day I started my online business, I always being told that the money is on the list. However, sometimes it wasn’t easy to capture even a single lead into your list, right? That’s why I always dreamed of a tool that could help me generate leads faster and easier -- with less...

I have a Dell XPS 8300 fitted with an i7. I am running Windows 7/64 bit which as far as I know is fully updated. Certainly it is service pack 1. My major use of the machine is processing photographic images. For may years I have been keeping my screen profiles calibrated using the DataColor...

Machine is a Dell Inspiron 3668 desktop running Windows 10 Home Premium, 1803 build 17134.765. Looks like this machine is two builds behind (.766 and .799) before even getting to 1809. I'm set to get updates automatically, and I keep hitting Check for Updates, but that's for another...

I've been buying Factory Outlet Dells for a while. I notice I have much better luck with scratch'n'dent laptops than refurbished ones (though they eventually get fixed owing to keeping sending them back until it happens, but it's a hassle.). Refurbished ones tend to have the original problem,...

I love the clean look of this weather widget that shipped with my XPS 8300. Would like to use it on my Inspiron i5 5010 but I can't find it on line (and no, it's not on Accuweather.com or Dell.com) Does anyone know how I can get it on the...

I want to add a 2nd sata hard drive to my precision T3500 running Win 7 64-bit - in a non raid configuration. It currently has 1 hard drive (sata 0) and dvd (sata 2), but I've hit a bump. Even though I ordered the "non-raid" configuration from Dell, the "sata operation" section of the system...

I registered my Dell desktop when I first set it up. It came with the Dell Help & Support, and Support Assist programs. Both programs seem a little buggy. While in Dell Help & Support, if I click on the link that is supposed to take me to the Dell Community, I end up at...

I've always ignored this notice from Dell that pops up on a couple of my machines, usually when I reboot: https://postimg.cc/image/9purjioaj/ I just click Remind Me Later. I've never ordered any software from Dell, but I guess this is just in case I have, or do, and this notice is installed on...

My Dell Inspiron 15 has an Intel HD Graphics 520 driver, per Device Manager, that was installed at the factory. It's running Windows 10, version 1803. I keep getting a Microsoft Update notification that it wants to install "Intel Corporation - Display - 2/28/2018 12:00:00 AM - 23.20.16.4973"....

I have a Dell Precision M6800 laptop that I disable the touchpad and touchscreen on. Every so often they get turned back on! The touchpad is disabled in the UI for the device but will show up as enabled. There is a control for that. Oddly the first time I used it the buttons were turned off as...

This is an Inspiron 15.6" Series 5000, 5559 Laptop. I purchased it new around July of 2016. It came with Windows 10 Home, probably Version 1511 or 1607 back then. It's currently fully updated, running Version 1709, build 16299.309. My question has to do with the number of Recovery Partitions...

I've been looking around a lot to see if anyone had any information about this but came up with nill...So I investigated it myself for anyone out there that may be interested in what that center pin really does. For those of you that think I don't know my butt from a hole in the ground and feel...

I'm wondering if it overheated. I have an i7 version of the M6500 running Windows 7 64 bit. I came back from lunch and the machine was asleep. I hit the power button (it was flashing slowly) and the screen came on and I got back to work. After about a minute the screen went completely...
