  • Vostro 1510: BSOD after Sleep

    Hi All, I've been experiencing a BSOD most of the times after a Sleep. That is: - when I close the lip and reopen - when Windows goes to Sleep automatically under Balanced Power State Using Windows Vista 32-bit with SP1. What kind of a cause could this be? Thanks, McoreD Event Log: Log Name: System...

  • Bluetooth mouse causes Inspiron 1545 to hang on resume from suspend about 30% of the time

    I just got a new Inspiron 15 (1545) with Windows Vista Home Basic and the dell 365 bluetooth module. I promptly installed an upgraded hard drive and Windos XP Professional. XP Pro was an option when purchasing this laptop and drivers are offered for it so I figured that would be fine. About 5 days later...

  • Inspiron 8500 Sleep Button Broken

    Yes, my 8500 is old but still a great, hard working machine. The Sleep ? button above the volume on/off, above the num lock, that sticks up... no longer pops up when you open the lid. Having to use pliers to pull it up to wakeup or even turn on. Have to leave the laptop open as I'm concerned I'll...

  • Re: Studio 15 power button still pulsates after shut down

    I recently got my studio 1555 and I am also experiencing this problem. I have gone to the power options and selected "shut down" wherever I could and shut down from both the start menu and also by pressing on the power button. The power button always flashes and I am assuming even when I put...

  • E5400 turns itself on from sleep or hibernation

    My E5400 often turns itself on when in sleep or hibernate mode. I have the latest A12 BIOS, and I have reset all settings to default, and then turned off anything that looks like it could cause the PC to wake up: wake on LAN, wake on USB, daily wake-up timer etc. I'm using WIndows Vista, and I haven't...

  • Re: XPS Studio 1640 LCD brightness

    I have this same problem. The screen brightness level does not seem to be 'saved' when resuming from sleep or hibernation. A cold boot on battery also seems to give the same problem. I would suspect it is a BIOS issue. The LCD brightness seems to be hardware controlled as opposed to software...

  • Re: XPS 16 screen flickering on low brightness

    I have this issue as well among some others all related to the LCD display (RGB LED, 1920x1080). I notice it only when its on battery (mainly because its on lowest brightness), and I notice some form of flicker while generally using it (e.g. word processing and reading). However, I experience both the...
