  • Dell Latitude E6400 - Overheating issues with minute tasks such as playing flash videos for extended periods?

    I'm not sure if this is happening to anyone else, but I've recently been experiencing some serious issues with my Dell Latitude E6400 (with latest BIOS, and all other relevant updates) while surfing, playing flash videos full screen, etc. After extended periods, Windows Vista slows to a halt...

  • XPS M1330 slows down when plugging in AC power adapter

    Hi, Sometimes when I switch from battery to AC power (when the battery is getting low), my XPS M1330 (running Vista home premium) slows down at the moment I plug in my AC power adapter.

  • Precision M4300 Bios problems with last two BIOS revisions A12 and A13

    If you use the D/Dock with the Precision M4300 (and probably the M2300 and M6300 as well), quad monitor support is lost. No matter what I do, I cannot restore quad monitor displays using two vidoe cards (one PCI card in the D/Dock). The system will only detect one card. My guess is that the new BIOSes...
