Network disconnect after inserting USB 3 key

Hi,

At work, we have some DELL Inspiron 5720. We are working on windows 7 x86.

We encounter some problem with the realtek network card (Realtek PCIe FE Family Controler). When i plug a USB3 stick on the port near the LAN port, the network card tells me that the network cable is disconnected. I have to turn off and on again the card to have my connection back.

What i already do :

update bios

update USB 3 driver

update chipset driver

update LAN driver

 

 

 

Funny things :

The problem doesn't appear when i use a USB 3 extension cable

When i turn off and on again the card, i can ping other machine again but i can't ping the DELL laptop from other machine (firewall disable)

The problem doesn't appear on windows 8.1

The problem appear on Windows 7 (fresh install) with the last driver provided by DELL or the last driver on Realtek Website

The problem appear on all my DELL Inspiron 5720

 

does anyone have some idea to solve this problem ?

 

Thank's :)

2nd call out =no show

3rd call out = hard drive replaced, motherboard needs replacing

4th call out = motherboard replaced, now all usb ports need replacing

5th call out = no show

6th call out = no show

 

 

dell your disgusting, your customer service is pathetic, an your engineers are a shambles...

 

iv never once in my life contacted a 3rd party to get involved to help with a problem but this is getting embarrassing and insulting..

Precision M6800 DVD noise or defective DVD drive

Hello Dell,

        Got this new Precision M6800 and the DVD drive makes noise for almost every 2-3min but somehow it was solved following the A03 update and UsB 3.0 update. logged to BIOS and confirmed update. The DVD noise was gone but actually went back for 15-25min of use. I was installing different programs for work but DVD installation stopped and can't be read anymore. Is there any other way to fix this?

Thanks

E4310 Power ON problem, Blinking power and battery light only.

My latitude E4310 cannot power up after a week of not used.

I bought the laptop in 2010 and its working fine until this year. Last 2 months, it began to display a hard disk failure warning that says I need to replace the hdd before its totally unusable. After a week I replaced the hdd with new seagate 320gb and re-installed the os and the drivers. After the installation, the problem in power-up began. In the beginning of the problem, the laptop will power up after 3 to 5 tries. I already updated the BIOS and some drivers but still the problem exist and after a week that I did not use the laptop, now I can't power it up even the battery is full and the charger was plugged.

Please anybody can help me what to do?

Laptop problem--unusable because screen freezes with colored squares, turns off.

It's much easier to simply show the video of what's started happening within the past few days, rather than try to explain it!: (Please visit the site to view this video)

This kind of thing tends to happen within a few minutes of booting up, and you lose whatever you've got open or are doing.

It's a Dell Inspiron with Windows 7; service tag # is 83RY0N1. Here are the other specs:


Thanks so much for any help you provide.

On a different note, I also think I might be interested in a tablet...but I don't know which one would be for me...I basically would love something that does what my laptop does for me, but is light and portable and easier to use just anywhere...oh, and that has phone capabilities. ^^' Since my old sliding Sprint cell is really kind of lousy now. So any insight into which types of devices I should be looking into would also be greatly appreciated. :)


Dell 1545 inspiron laptop never turns on after proper shut down for days

$

Hi All,

I'm new to the forum. I normally do a lot of research before joining any forum but this problem with the laptop is extremely confusing. 

I had Dell 1545 for about 3 1/2 years. Never had any issue at all. I have always used with an extreme care. One night used it as normal and switched off and next day it didn't turn on. I tried so many things. I bought a voltmeter tested out the power plug (worked fine), the genuine charger (worked fine), dc jack, battery panel tested, power button board tested, nothing seem to be faulty.

One day i read about removing the battery and adapter and holding the power button for 30-60 sec and then putting back the battery/adapter. It worked! I was happy to find the solution but the problem is after using it that day few times, again next day it would not turn on!? I have been having this issue for 3-4 weeks now. It turns on when it wants to and its extremely frustrating Tongue Tied

I never had any issue with my laptop but this recent problem is testing my patience to the extreme! Any advice, help, suggestion, support, guidance, direction, solution will be highly appreciated!

Many thanks.

My dell Inspiron 15R(N5010) laptop shuts down automatically while I am working and then restarts automatically and then shuts down after dell logo appears.  I contacted service center and they told me that this is because of excessive heating. What should I do?

Installed win7 into the Recovery partition by accident.

I goofed up.  I have a Studio 1555 that I needed to reinstall Win 7 onto.  Dell Tech Support could not find any signs of Win 7 having a re-install package already on the machine so they sent me a new disc.  However I screwed up and installed the Win OS onto my HDD but into a parition called the 'Recovery" partition. I later reinstalled it onto the primary partition but now when I boot up, I stop at screen called the "Windows Boot Manager" which is listing two installs of win7, one on the recovery drive install and one on the much larger primary partition.  I use the second install which goes to the primary partition but the recovery partition is so small the Win7 OS is talking up most of the free space and constantly sending me messages that the drive is almost full.  How can I delete the version of Win 7 on the recovery partition and stop the constant messages from the control system that says my disk is almost full. It is also showing up with a letter to identify itself which never showed up better.  Also,what is the recovery partition supposed to be used for?  I don't think it ever worked or was used, as I backup to a network storage device.

Dell Inspiron 17 7737 becomes unresponsive when display turns off.

When the display on my Dell Inspiron 7737 laptop turns off as a result of the power plan settings, the laptop becomes unresponsive; pressing keyboard keys or touchpad buttons does not cause the display to turn on again.

The only way I have found to recover from this situation is to turn the laptop off and on. I would expect the display to turn on again following any user activity.

Is there a resolution to this fault?

Dell Update reports that my laptop is "current with the latest important updates from Dell". I have installed the Microsoft Windows 8.1 update.
