  • Re: 8gb ram in Dell xps1730

    Thanks for reply. Allthough it did not help me much with deciding. On another website i read about experiences of some other people. Some of them put 8gb inside and it seems to work.

  • Re: XPS M1730 Second Hard Drive Installation Help

    Hi Thank you again for your kind help. I haven't see anything like that in the BIOS. It has a SATA Configuration under the Onboard Configuration. This is where you select RAID/Auto Detect RAID... and so on. I am at work and laptop is at home. Therefore, I cannot list out all the available command...

  • Re: XPS M1730 Video Card Failure and poor service

    I reported my failure 10/16/09, it is now 10/24/09 and my xps sits collecting dust, still no repair. I get no responses from dell. I have reported the issue to the Better Business Bureau, they have already replied and now dell must reply to them by 11/2/09. I encourage everyone else to do the same.
