Inspiron 15 (5558) hinge on left side broken

0
0

The left side hinge on my touch enables Inspiron 15 (5558) is broken.  When I opened the device on my desk, it made a cracking sound and the case-lid seemed to seperate from the screen assembly. According to the tag on the bottom, it's under warranty until December 20th this year.  How do I go about getting this repaired?  I can not move the screen at this point.  I have it in an open position, but if I'm very gentle and use many hands, I could get it closed.  Any help would be appreciated.  


DELL 15R 5537 internet connection issues

0

Hi!

I have DELL 1705 WiFi + Bluetooth card. Suddenly I can't connect to any wire or wireless connection to internet while bluetooth works fine and only way I can connect to internet is by using my phone as modem with USB tethering option. If I launch full diagnostics in dell.com webpage with DELL System Detect, it passes all tests.

I've already checked - my airplane mode is off and wi-fi adapter is enabled. I also updated all drivers.

Inspiron 5555

BIOS A08

Build 4302. 10 UEFI ROM

With battery and charger connected I push the power button

It shows the Dell logo then after a few seconds it goes dark and starts over.

After a few cycles it will start the SupportAssist to do a hardware scan but won't find any problems.

How can I fix this?

I've given up hope on "Plugged in, not charging"

It's been a rough few months with this problem. I can't tell if it is hardware or software, and I've tried almost everything.

This is a list:

Bought new charger (Fixed for a little, then problem shows up again)

Reinstalled windows 10 and 8

Reinstalled drivers

Updated bios

Replaced charger port

It stopped for a week or two, and now it's back.

I have a Dell Inspiron 5547 that is about one and a half years old.

Inspiron 5547

I can't find the search bar!

I just got a new laptop, inspiron, and somehow accidentally hit the groove music player... now it thinks that it has to be the primary player. When I click on an audio track, Groove takes over and can't be shut off. When I went to Microsoft help, I saw this:

I suggest you to follow the steps below to uninstall Groove:

  1. Press Windows key.
  2. Type Windows PowerShell in the Search.
  3. Right click on Windows PowerShell from the list and click on Run as Administrator.
  4. Type in the following command ‘get-appxpackage *Microsoft.ZuneMusic* | remove-appxpackage’ and press Enter.

However, when I click on the windows button, there is no search bar to be found! Where is it?

If anyone can offer a bit of help, I would be very grateful...

Dell Inspirion 15 N5030 installed windows 7 does not have a network driver help pls

0

I put Windows 7 on my dell inspirion 15 N5030 laptop. It say there is no network driver installed. How do I determine what device driver I need to install & do I need to install just it or do i need to install all the dell drivers for that laptop. I did not buy it new -i bought it used & do not know what devices it has in it. I can follow directions if given them step by step. I had a dell before this that I had to install all the drivers for using xp and it was a nightmare getting the right driver & installing them properly but I did get it done finally lol. In fact im on a dell laditude right now but it has windows 10 and 10 had all the drivers  needed for this one. i also tried to install 10 on the inspiron but it would not install at all so I put in windows 7 instead. Any help is very much appreciated as the dell i'm using now is old and worn out lol. It was my brothers then my moms & who knows where my brother got it from and i need to get the other one working before this one quits altogether
