Laptop charger plugged in, but charging percentage is always 0%

0
0

I have Inspiron 15 N5050. I'm using windows 10. Since last couple of days, my laptop is not charging. See the image below:

I tried updating my BIOS drivers but it says I need at least 10% charging before updating them.

What should I do?


DELL XPS 13 9350 USB-C issue - problems with monitor HDMI connection

0
0

hello friends DELL users, can you help me? As I am getting older my eyes and neck are not in good condition. I decided to buy DELL monitor - Dell P2217H Professional and I realized there is no HDMI or DISPLAYPORT at my laptop. I bought port replicator DELL - Dell USB-C (M) na HDMI 2.0 (F).

Since I connected all above mentioned devices, my laptop went crazy. No chance to make it sleep and if I switch it off and on, it will not recognize being connected to external monitor. Sometimes laptop does recognize external monitor, but only duplicate the screen. Any advises pls?

Dell CS did not help so much. They sent technician to change MB and it is the same. I reinstalled WIN 10 (factory reset) and the problem persists.

Thanks a lot, 

Alois

Screen flicker

0
0

Since a couple of weeks I notice that the screen flickers from time to time on my Dell XPS15 (4K display).

Seems to be related to doing typing on the laptop, as it doesn't seem to happen when I for example

watch a movie and don't interact with the laptop.

Any thoughts?

Dell inspiron 7352 2-in-1 freezes randomly and requires hard reset for Windows 10

0
0

Hi,

I'm currently using Windows 10 Home anniversary build with my Dell Inspiron 7352 2-in-1 model (with solid sate drive and on-board Intel graphic card) and experiencing randomly freezes quite often. I have tried to update hardware drivers and bios but to no avail. I have clean installed Windows 3-4 times but still have seen the same issue. The only thing I can do is to hard reset. The problem happens most of the time when I watch video on Youtube or other sites that require flash player. I normally use Chrome and some suggested to turn off 'use hardware acceleration when available' but that didn't help in my case. In fact, the problem is also present when switching to other browser like Edge too. The video card driver has been updated and I also tried updating flash player but the problem still persists. Even worse, the freezing also occurs sometimes when I leave my laptop overnight without putting it into sleep or hibernation. The freezing occurs randomly but usually within a week it comes to say hi to me. It might be the next day after previous freezing. Sometimes after first hard reset it freezes all of the sudden and requires another reset. Because of this, it's really hard to tell whether the problem comes from hardware or software side. I have another laptop with Win 10 Pro anniversary build equipped with two hard drives (SSD and HDD) and dual graphic cards but this machine works like a charm without any problem.

I know this problem seems to be quite common to some Win 10 people but again it seems the cause of the problem varied among users. I would like see if anyone who has this issue experiences this similar behavior as my case, especially for people who are using Inspiron 7352 2-in-1. I would be appreciated if one could point out any other approaches to track down or solve the problem.

Key comes off keyboard on laptop (Inspiron 17R)

I know someone who has a Inspiron 17R laptop and the letter A key came off the keyboard.

She talked to some tech guy who said there should be a peg it can be glued back to but there is no peg, just the key and some small plastic piece that also came loose.

How do these get fixed?

Thanks.

SSD in non Dell machine

I have a dell laptop with a dead screen.  I decided to not replace it and reuse the SSD in my home (non Dell) computer.  Im finding this computer and another non dell laptop do not detect the SSD taken from my dell laptop, not even in the BIOS.


However I put it in my dell laptop (using a monitor) and it works fine.  Are the SSD drive used in Dell hard coded to only work with Dell machines maybe?

Normal for AC adapter brick to be very hot?

0
0

The AC adapter brick for my Inspiron 7559, which I just bought two months ago, gets very hot during charging to touch (to the point where it would not be comfortable to hold in my hand).  Is this normal or expected behavior?  Could this be a symptom of a problem or even a fire hazard?  Or is this normal for these laptops?


How/Where to get Second Battery for Dell Latitude D830?

0
0

I am looking at upgrading one of my old Dell Latitudes, it's an D830. My son needs this laptop for school, and it needs about a 6 hour battery span. This laptop, however, only gets about 45 mins on average, and he can't plug it in at school. This laptop I found was perfect for him because it was rugged. I remember awhile ago I bought a  secondary laptop battery for this computer (an older one, not the same model) and it installed through the CD slot. Same thing, as I have found for this computer. So, my question. Where is the best resource to purchase one of these batteries?

SPECS OF LATITUDE (as configured)

4GB of RAM (1GB original)

500GB WD Blue hard drive (80GB original)

Windows 8.1 Professional (XP original)

Thank you so much!

Very curious keyboard issues.

0

A while back, the keyboard on my N7110 started going nuts. I had replaced the original with a backlit one from China years ago. I removed the keyboard and it had the distinct smell of coffee. Turns out my wife spilled some on it a while back, and never said anything.


I attempted to clean the keyboard as best I could, but got no results. The same characters, "ruweq", would spam as soon as I started to close the hinge on the ribbon. Then a "43poi" might or might not show up, followed by a steady stream of "i"s.

Anyway, I ordered the same keyboard, and everything was fine. New keyboard worked for a few weeks, then suddenly, the same issues. I grilled the wife, but she swears she hasn't spilled anything. It seems the problem is now with the board. I tried cleaning the connection with alcohol, but no dice.

Here's where things start getting interesting.

For no reason at all, I dug up the old, coffee spilled keyboard and plugged it in. It worked! ...Well, it worked for about 5 minutes, then it started going nuts again. Plugged in the new one, same deal. So now, neither of them work.


Any advice on how I might fix this? Any idea why the old one would suddenly work for a few minutes? Any help at all would be appreciated.

Thanks!

I was given a inspiron 4000 laptop and it won't turn on. It will charge the battery but if you push the power button nothing happens. I took it all apart to make sure the motherboard wasn't damage any where and it looks find. I tried the cpu in a other laptop and it works and the memory works too. So a ruled those out. It won't turn on with battery or with it being plug in. The service tag is 7GNTK01. All i know is the guy i got it from told me he was typing on it and it shut off and wouldn't turn back on. Hope someone can help i am lost now.

Dell Inspiron 13 7359

I have a Dell Inspiron 13 7359 that was purchased 3 months ago( Great laptop for that price!!) . It currently has 6th Gen I7 processor (i&-6500U / 2.5Ghz / 64Bit) and 8GB DDR3L RAM and I would like to upgrade that to 16 GB atleast. Now all the information available suggests that this Laptop does not support more than 8GB of RAM. My question is : is there anyway to get around this limitation other than having to buy a new laptop?.  The SMBIOS ver is 2.8 and the motherboard ID is 0WJF7F.  BIOS Vendor is Dell. Mfg Date : 12/09/2015 and BIOS Ver string : 01.04.00.

Will it just not recognize a 16GB RAM Module or just not see anything above 8Gb or just not work at all? 

Will greatly appreciate all responses. 

Thanks

Charger LED doesn't turn off while unplugged?

0
0

Hey, I've got a weird little thing going on and I was wondering if it's anything to be concerned about. I've already tried googling it and found one answer, but.

So I've got a new Inspirion 3000 11", had it since Dec 9. The charger has an LED light that obviously lights up while the laptop is plugged in and charging, and everything seems fine on that end. Initially, the light would go off within a few seconds once the charger was unplugged, but I've noticed the time getting longer. First it was just a few minutes, and last night it was almost an hour before the light turned off. There was no power to the charger at all, it was unplugged at both ends.

Is this a sign of a bad charger, or nothing to worry about? Thanks in advance.
