I have had a dell Inspiron 15R N5110 for a couple of years now and i only had problems with it a couple of months ago. I had to wipe my hard drive and reload everything but it worked fine.

I know this is a pretty old machine by now, but I found the optiplex 170L in a garage sale for $50 and thought that it was a goodish deal. I got a graphics/video card (nVidia GeForce 6200 and i have no clue how to install it.

I got a warning when I ran the PC Checker from Dell Support Center on my 1720 running Windows Vista Home Premium SP2 that indicated the SMART Short Self Test Timed Out. I have no idea what SMART is or what this warning is about. Is this something I can correct? Is it important and why?

Okay, so I got my Inspiron 1525 about 1 year ago, it was used. But in excellent condition so the buying was not a problem. My charger started to break so i bought another charger off ebay.

I can't get that - or the latest driver from AMD website (13.1 dated 1/17/13) to install. The installer runs, it just does not detect the HD7570 and does not update any drivers. If i go into device manager it always tells me I have the latest when I try to force update it that way.

I just purchased an Inspiron 14R for my granddaughter (graduation present). I know Dell doesn't ship OS Recovery disks anymore (poor decision), but I thought I'd be able to create one from the Dell Backup and Recovery app.

I am in the process of upgrading the RAM in our dual-processor R410 and would like to verify the configuration before buying the memory. If I am reading the documentation correctly, I believe the following memory configuration should work giving us a total of 124GB in Optimizer mode.

So I recently got my X51 and I'm loving it. I splurged a bit and got the blu-ray drive in hopes of playing blu-rays on my computer. The computer shipped with Cyberlink PowerDVD 10. Well, I popped in The Hobbit and it simply wouldn't play.

I read that some people did all this to this computer and I'm not sure of what parts to look for and if I can even do it, I also heard that some of them are limited by the chipset to only 2gb and 2gb only regardless the os used...How do I figure this out before I go out and buy the ram?

I've registered my system with Dell. I've gone to My Download Locker and Dell Webcam Central isn't there. I can use my webcam with yahoo and skype, but Dell Webcam Central isn't in my list of programs on my laptop for some reason.

Last week, my 8 month old Dell laptop had a virus. I called last Wednesday and paid $130 for service even though it is under warranty. This is less than 6 weeks after you had to replace the network card.

Is there any way to bring these back online and get the server up and running without starting from scratch please? Server is 4 years old, No Dell Support.
