Purchase Dell Warranty?
I have a guy who wants to sell me a new condition Dell M4600, but the warranty has expired.
Is there a way to purchase a new warranty for a computer whose warranty has already expired?
Do you recommend doing so? If Dell cannot provide a new warranty, would another provider, such as Square Trade be able to do so?

home fix
Follow the directions from an earlier post to put the motherboard in the oven. Another post has a link on how to disassemble your laptop. I had nothing to lose and did this. It works perfectly now. From a paperweight to a computer again.

Wireless stopped working
My wife's Studio 17 laptop developed an issue today. Sometime between noon and 3pm, the wireless card in her computer stopped working. Everything in hardware diagnostics indicates that everything is functioning...but it will not connect to our home network. I have troubleshot the wireless system...and everything on the router is working normally. When I try to connect to the wireless network, the computer tries to connect, but eventfully just says it cannot connect.
Does anybody have any suggestions? My mother in law had the same thing happen to her laptop about a year ago...and I was never able to fix the issue...she finally upgraded her computer...
Thanks in advance...

E6400 Touchpad has lost its mind
Hey Guys, i have been using the community forms for years because it is great help. Kudos to everyone and all their hard work, i cant thank you enough, but now i guess its my turn to ask for help...
I have a Latitude E6400 running Win7 32-bit and recently it started acting goofy. a couple weeks ago the touchpad/cursor would move all around the screen but would only click on desktop items. when i would launch an app and attempt to click on something inside the app, it would lose focus and i would be clicking on the desktop again, also can not click on start menu or taskbar.
my initial thought was malware, so i reloaded windows. after a full system reload i am getting the same results. i have isolated this to the dell touchpad software/drivers but it yields the same results if i use an external mouse as well so its not a hardware problem.
other forms have instructed to delete the drivers from computer management and restart, i have tried this and i get the same results if the touchpad software is installed.
has anyone else fought and won this battle yet? any guidance/advice
Thanks everyone
Mike

Error Code 2000-0142 on Inspiration N5050
I have an Inspiron N5050 that is 8 mos old and is rarely used. When turned on, it shows windows loading files bar, then a start up repair screen but does not go beyond that. When I exit that screen, it shuts down. I restarted it and ran the F12 diagnostic test and it showed a fail with error code 2000-0142. This should still be under warranty because I bought the computer on 8/4/12. Is there anything I can do on my side or will this need to be returned to Dell for evaluation?

Windows 7 Factory Restore - Studio 1558
Hello!
I'm trying to do a factory system restore on my laptop and I am struggling to do it. I have been able to do it in the past...but I don't remember how.
What I am struggling with is I can't find the "Dell factory Image Restore" option. I do F8 > Repair my computer > Choose your keyboard layout > .....
But that is it. I never log in as an "administrator". I never get the chance to even log in. I'm guessing this is why the option "Dell factory Image Restore" never appears. Please help me out by asking for whatever additional details you need to know to help.

Inspiron 15 USB Wake Problem
I am not able to wake up my new laptop from sleep via USB mouse or keyboard. I would like to be able to do that because I usually keep my laptop lid closed, so the power button is not immediately accessible. I've searched the forums here and found similar issues with other models, and at least with the Inspiron 17R the problem was recently resolved with a BIOS update. I had no issues when using the same USB mouse and keyboard on an old XPS 8000.
Now for the details:
- Model: Inspiron 15 (3521)
- BIOS: A06
- USB Wake Support: Enabled
- Operating System: Windows 8 Enterprise 64-bit
- Keyboard: Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000
- Software: Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center
- Mouse: Logitech Performance Mouse MX
- Software: Logitech SetPoint
If I go into Device Manager, and look at various devices, I see the following:
- Human Interface Devices
- HID-compliant consumer control device - no Power Management tab
- HID-compliant device - no Power Management tab
- Logitech HID-compliant Unifying device - no Power Management tab
- Logitech Unifying USB receiver - no Power Management tab
- Microsoft Hardware USB Keyboard - "Allow this device to wake the computer" grayed out
- USB Input device - "Allow this device to wake the computer" grayed out
- Keyboards
- HID Keyboard Device - no Power Management tab
- Microsoft USB Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000 - no Power Management tab
- Mice and other pointing devices
- HID-compliant device - no Power Management tab
- Logitech HID-compliant Unifying Mouse - no Power Management tab
- Universal Serial Bus controllers
- Generic USB Hub - "Allow this device to wake the computer" grayed out
- USB Composite Device - no Power Management tab
- USB Root Hub - "Allow this device to wake the computer" grayed out
- USB Root Hub (xHCI) - "Allow this device to wake the computer" grayed out
If I go into an Administrator command prompt, I get the following:
- powercfg /devicequery wake_armed: NONE
- powercfg /devicequery wake_programmable: Realtek PCIe FE Family Controller
- powercfg /devicequery wake_from_any:
- Dell Wireless 1703 802.11b/g/n (2.4GHz)
- Realtek PCIe FE Family Controller
- UMBus Enumerator
- Logitech HID-compliant Unifying device
- Logitech Driver Interface
- Logitech HID-compliant Unifying device (001)
- ACPI Lid
- UMBus Enumerator (001)
- Intel(R) Management Engine Interface
- Intel(R) 7 Series/C216 Chipset Family PCI Express Root Port 1 - 1E10
- UMBus Enumerator (002)
- Logitech HID-compliant Unifying Mouse
- Microsoft Wi-Fi Direct Virtual Adapter
- Logitech Driver Interface (001)
- HID-compliant device (009)
- Remote Desktop USB Hub
- HID-compliant device (010)
- powercfg /deviceenablewake "Logitech HID-compliant Unifying device": You do not have permission to enable or disable device wake.
- powercfg /deviceenablewake "USB Root Hub": You do not have permission to enable or disable device wake.
From what I've been able to find online, I should be able to enable "Allow this device to wake the computer" in the Power Management tab of various devices in Device Manager, especially the USB Root Hub devices, and possibly the Logitech USB and Microsoft keyboard devices. I assume if I can get that enabled, things might work as expected.
Is this a known issue, and can anything be done to resolve it?

Inspiron 1440 Won't boot
I have a Dell Inspiron 1440 that won't boot now. Using WinVista Ultimate and needed to reboot but it hangs after the Dell logo/Inspiron screen with the white status bar is completed at the bottom of the LED screen. I removed the 500GB HD and inserted a new 1TB Win7 Professional that I've been working on for the last couple of weeks and it won't boot either. Same situation on both HD (2 Win OSes on same laptop with same issue). FYI, I have 8GB RAM in the laptop (been that way for couple of years) but I don't suspect the RAM as the issue. I do have 2-2GB RAM DIMMs that came with the laptop initially in case that's a test I need to make.
Functionally, it appears like the boot sector on the HD isn't "available" but I've tried two (2) different HDs and I get the same issue. Hence, I think it's not a HD issue.
What IS the issue and what are my options? Laptop appears to be fine otherwise. New motherboard? $$??
Pressing F2 or F12 doesn't get me anywhere at startup time either.
