DELL XPS 6000 with Audigy2ZS..No so

<font face="Baskerville Old Face" size="5">?I have a Dell XPS 6000 Dimension desktop. Win XP. The sound card is a (Soundblaster 2ZS.) The integrated audio onboard is?(RealtekAC 97 Audio.)?I heard the Windows Startup theme,but when I play a song in Windows Media Player it tells me I have a sound problem,and I can still see the music visuals?playing,but hear nothing. When I turn/off?my center speakers, I hear the sound go on, but unable to play any music. I uninstalled the?Soundblaster media Cneter beacuse I did get some sounds that had terrible echo and I couldn't turn it off,so I uninstalled it..didn't think I needed it to play audio with other programs I have. I went to Bios to see if the integrated Audio was on,and it was. ((I've had computers in the past where I had to go to Bios,disable the onboard Audio,so I could hear the Soundblaster.))?In Bios, I?disabled the integrated Audio>rebooted> then no Windows startup music. I've checked all connections and any onboard programs that could be muted or turned down, but?now?there is no sound. I went back to BIOS and re-enabled the Realtek 97 onboard Audio. I went to ADD/REMOVE programs and clicked on the Audigy Soundblaster, I did a repair and it loaded up to 99%,then asked me to put in Disk for the ini.setup files? Did they mean the DELL XPS 600 resource CD with the drivers/utilities/diagnostics? or the Dell Operating System CD? Is this a dangerous thing to do that could impact this computer? I would hate to mess anything up because it's out of warranty. Could there be a conflict with the onboard Realtek 97 and the Soundblaster soundcard, or should they work together? Thank you to all who reply.

Any ideas, anyone?

Same problem with Illustrator. I've made all the Screen Resolution and Print-Size settings and nothing remedies the small display. (My working page is fine; it's just the display that is REAL tiny!!) Can you help me? Do you have any suggestions for me to try? Should I re-install from the internet? Am I forced to upgrade my application? I appreciate any comments you might have. Thanks. -- Dennis

HT1473 I can't find a pull down for authorize my new Dell XPS computer with Windows 8 in the itunes store like support said to

I can't find a pull down at the Itunes store to authorize my new Dell XPS computer with Window 8... according to the support there is supposed to be one... Anybody run into this before?

There's a couple of ways to get through to the authorisation controls in the 11.0.x versions.
The control is still in the Store menu, but first (if you're using iTunes versions 11.0.x) you might need to bring up the menu bar to see the Store menu.
If you're using 11.0.x, click on the wee boxy icon up in the top-left corner of your iTunes to see the "Show Menu Bar" control, as per the following screenshot:
Then you'll find the control in the Store menu:
Alternatively, if you don't want to bring up the menu bar, it's still possible to get into the authorise controls via nested menus accessible from the wee boxy icon. Here's a screenshot of where to find them:

Apple MacBook Air 11 inch, 13 inch, or Dell XPS 14 with i7 and nvidia graphics card?

I am a college student looking for either a MacBook Air 11 inch or a MacBook Air 13 inch. I was looking at the Dell XPS 14 with i7 processor and nvidia graphics card. It is similar in price to an Apple MacBook Air 11 inch. I will mainly use the laptop for browsing, a bit of Minecraft, watching videos (netflix/downloading movies), presentations, and documents. I would also need it to be lightweight because I will be carrying it around campus. I cannot choose between these three.....any ideas? I have an iPhone 5 and iPad with retina display (that is what I use currently and it is not working out). I just saw the WWDC14 and I saw how all my devices could connect to the Mac flawlessly.
Please let me know,
Thanks

I recommend the macbook 13" retina. Yes, it is expensive, but if you pair it with 8GB of memory, you should be futureproof for the next 5 years minimum. Why not the air.
Currently the air sports thunderbolt 1, This is super outdated. Macbook pro has thunderbolt 2 which allows you to daisy chain monitors via display port 1.2. Macbook Air sports display port 1.1a which only allows daisy chaining amoungst thunderbolt monitors which are expensive. $1000 minimum per a monitor where as you could pickup a daisy chainable displayport 1.2 dell monitor for $200. The only reason I am severely regretting my 13" Air.
The screen, yes, in a few years all screens will sport retina resolutions. It makes a big difference when reading and typing for long periods of time. Text is more clear. Also, 11" is way too small. If you want something that small, get an Ipad Air.
Battery life, 9 hours should still be enough to get you through the day. I go to school and I could only top out at 7 hours usage at most.
Gaming, Although I dont recommend gaming on any laptop because laptops aren't meant so much for gaming. Mostly because the heat generated from it kills the life of your laptop. It is up to 20% faster than the air.
Weight, half a pound off the 13" AIR is not a big deal. Actually the retina is smaller in height and width, so better center of balance when using it on your lap and the black bezel is less distracting.
Processor, its 10% faster in overall processing speeds generally.
Dont forget to purchase 2 year extended warranty. Buy that from bhphoto for 180 bucks. No tax and its way cheaper than apple.
If you still want the air after that, consider getting the 13". It comes with sd card slot, it is handy when you run out of space. And its 10% faster than the 11" even though they have the same processor. The processor's performance is based on the thermal threshold of the computer. The hotter it gets, the slower the computer gets to cool the processor down.
If you choose the Macbook Pro 13" RETINA(Not the $999 version with the DVD Drive), if you can, wait till late october when they update the computer with better hardware. Well... if you can.

[Solved] Panic on Dell XPS M1530 with kernels 2.6.23-2.6.24 and -ice

Hello everyone, I've been scratching my head over this problem for three days now.
I got a new Dell XPS M1530 and I tried to install Arch64 2007.8 and 2007.11 at least a dozen times with different menu.lst and mkinitcpio configurations, as well as with the -ice kernel, and the problem remains the same: I finish the installation and reboot, and after initramfs finishes and kinit takes over, I get some mumbo jumbo about ReiserFS being successfully recognized and mounted read-only on sda5 (my /) and some ok stuff about journaling and blocks and then on the next line
sh: root=/dev/sda5 Cannot find file or directory
Kernel panic - not syncing
This is my partitions setup:
sda1 - boot ext2
sda5 - / reiser
sda6 - home reiser
sda7 - swap
In the last year I installed Arch on at least half a dozen boxes and I converted all of my Gentoo using friends to Arch and never had a problem like this one!
Please someone give me a good idea.
EDIT: I tried even with persistent naming by-uuid and it doesn't work.
More on this problem on flyspray 9795.

There are unhandled dependencies in core/base, so remember kids, it's always a good idea to install all the packages from base.;)

Itunes 64 bit wont install on my Dell XPS due to Windows Installer problems. Can somebody help me out with this?

I have Windows 7 home premium, running on a Dell XPS 15, with 64 bit OS, and when i went to install itunes for my new phone, it would almost install, but then say that it couldn't install due to issues with windows Installer. has anybody had this happen to them? can anybody help me out with this?

Many thanks.
"There is a problem with this Windows Installer Package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor".
Perhaps let's first try updating your Apple Software Update.
Launch Apple Software Update ("Start > All Programs > Apple Software Update"). Does it launch and offer you a newer version of Apple Software Update? If so, choose to install just that update to Apple Software Update. (Deselect any other software offered at the same time.)
If the ASU update goes through okay, try another iTunes install. Does it go through without the errors this time?

MSI R7 260X 2GD5 OCV1 comparability with Dell XPS 435MT

I have a Dell XPS 435MT with an i7920 processor. I have upgraded the system to a 600 Watt power supply. Will the R7 260X work in this system? The motherboard has a PCI 16e slot, but is only PCI 2.0. The R7 is PCI Express 3.0. Will there be any comparability problems? Thanks!

We can't tell you. PCI- E should be fine. While AMD cards' downwards compatibility is not as good as nvidia cards' it should still work, theoretically. Only Dell can confirm if their machine is compatible with current generation vgas. Besides PCI-E an old bios not supporting current vgas can still spoil any chance of running the card.

Problems hooking up Inspiron 6000 with Router WRT54GS

We have a WRT54GS that has been set up and working wonderfully. My son just came home from college with his laptop (Dell Inspiron 6000 with wireless card, etc) and I wanted to hook it up also.
I think I'm missing a setting somewhere because, although I've entered the MAC into the router MAC filter list and the laptop shows our network name, I cannot get the laptop to connect. I get the prompt for our password, enter it, and then it just can't connect. Any suggestions as to what I've done wrong or what should I be checking? I've spent far too much time on this today.

It sounds like you have a wired computer connected to the router and that this computer is able to access the Internet without any problems. Is this correct? If so, then your basic router setup is complete. But it also sounds like you have never connected a computer wirelessly to this router. Is this correct? Normally, wireless would be turned on by default. So the only settings that you normally need to change are the wireless security settings.
You mentioned that you were using MAC address filtering. On the same page where you "Enable" wireless MAC address filtering, make sure you have marked the option "Permit only PC's listed .....". Then enter the MAC address of your son's laptop in the "MAC Address Filter List". Be sure to click on "Save Settings" on both of these pages, and wait for the page to refresh (3 to 60 seconds).
Have you checked to see if your son has the Intel Pro Wireless 2200bg card? You can check this in "Device Manager", under the heading of "Network Adapters".

New Dell XPS PC 03/27/11

So i bought this new Core i5 8300 Dell desktop a few days ago (march 27), this model was affected by the sandy bridge recall. I asked in the store if it still had the issue or not and they couldn't tell. I took the risk and bought it, i called dell support and they said that all new models are unaffected, but when i opened the box there was a sticker that said "JAN 14, 11"... so now i don't know what to think, how can i be sure that my machine don't have this issue ? I appreciate your help. Thanks.

Please, don't assume that your computer is okay. I bought a Dell XPS 8300 with an Intel Core i7 on March 20th. My assumption was that it would be okay because Best Buy took this computer off their website once the Sandy Bridge problem was identified. When it went back on their website I thought that they had the "fixed" computers. I was wrong. I checked with Dell today (my manufacturing date was December 28th) and they said that my machine was affected. They offered to send out a technician to replace the motherboard. I called Best Buy to express my extreme displeasure and was told that they would replace my computer. The problem is that I have extensive Photography software downloaded on my machine...Photoshop, Lightroom, Topaz,Nik Efex, On One, etc. etc. So....I asked if the Geek Squad could reinstall my programs for me. The answer was an unequivacable "NO". I was offered a 50% discount on some kind of Geek Squad service plan. I do not understand why Best Buy still had the "affected" machines on their shelves. They were well aware of the problem. I am very angry that I bought an $1,100 machine and get this kind of service from them. I will never ever buy another product from Best Buy.
My question now is....should I exchange this computer for a new one and go through the painful process of uninstalling and reinstalling all of my software or should I just accept Dell's offer to replace the motherboard?
If I were in your position I'd go with the Dell offer. That way you can keep your software with minimal hassle. However, it's inexcusable that Best Buy sold an affective machine that late in the game. I don't know why this happened.
Another option would be to image the drive to a backup drive then do a full machine exchange - but keep in mind the image will likely fail to work properly if restored to a different type of machine than an XPS 8300.
If you do not have any storage devices connected to one of the four SATA2 ports of the motherboard (Only to the two SATA3 ports), you won't be affected by the defect so can continue using the machine until Dell does the motherboard swap.
*disclaimer* I am not now, nor have I ever been, an employee of Best Buy, Geek Squad, nor of any of their affiliate, parent, or subsidiary companies.

Unable to connect dell xps 802.11ac laptop to cisco 1250 AP?

I have a new dell xps 15inc with the dell 802.11ac wireless card but it will not connect to the Cisco 1250 AP, however it connect to other APs just fine. I wondering if the Cisco 1250 AP is just to old and if there is any documentation proving this.
Thanks ahead of time.

On the dell wireless card, what happens if you force the card to use 802.11 a/b/g only and disable 802.11n/ac?

Sure you will. I guess you'll have to uninstall the Dell card first.

Multi touch pad not working Dell XPS

The multi touch features on my touchpad are not working on Firefox 9.0.1. Dell XPS L702X with Synaptics PS/2 TouchPad. Multi touch works on all other programs, including IE. While attempting to use multitouch, for example scrolling, the icon changes to show that it is working - but it is not.

Silly question....
Has the trackpad been turned off by any chance? A lot of laptops come with a button you press or hold to turn the trackpad itself off (or may be a function button using the F keys)

Dell XPS Touchpad Driver No Longer Working in Build 10041. Was fine with Build 9926

First of this is an old Dell, but from Vista through to Windows 8.1 Update, and then the initial Windows 10 Tech Preview Builds the Mouse Drivers have been OK. Its not so much the core mouse driver, but the feature extensions in the Accompanying driver bundle
that have stopped working. i.e. the ability to control finger scrolling and tapping, etc.
The Dell supplied drivers for my laptop (XPS M1330) ended with Windows 7 32bit, However, newer Dell laptop models had compatible, fully functioning drivers that could be installed. That was until build 10041.
So my questions are:
1. Anyone found a compatible driver for a Dell XPS with the Alps/Synaptics Touchpad model?
2. If MS Staffers read this, I understand that the model for Windows 10 is... "if it worked in an earlier Windows it will work in Windows 10", so, is this likely to be fixed?
Other than this issue, which is very irritating because working with a very limited mouse is a pain when the mouse supports other touch features, my Windows 10 experience has been really good.
Cheers,
Pete

Hi Alex,
I found a semi-compatible driver for the Synaptics Touchpad, which is found searching for Dell KB R293038.exe
This driver provides basic two finger touchpad scroll support and chiral scroll. It doesn't support advance Windows 8/8.1/10 swipe features.
Importantly this driver does not support two finger/chiral scroll gestures in Windows Modern Apps like the Store, or Project Spartan, or any other Windows Modern Apps.
Hopefully the Windows 10 Tech Preview Team will be able to work out what they changed that broke the Synaptics Touchpad gestures for so many people posting about the issue on these forums.
Cheers,
Pete
