For the dell xps 13

For the Dell XPS 13 what are all of the software packages you get when you order it at the bestbuy web sight

I successfully got my XPS 13 to PXE boot to Windows Deployment Services (WDS). It would be similar for SCCM.
Requirements
BIOS A08 (didn’t test with lower versions)
Startech.com USB-to-Ethernet dongle part # USB21000S2
Drivers for the right-side USB 3.0 port installed into your WDS boot image (see instructions below). The left-side USB port is USB 2.0 and doesn’t need any drivers.
Steps to capture an image
Install the drivers for the right-side USB 3.0 port into your WDS boot image
Get the driver from Dell (support.dell.com, enter your Dell service tag, drivers, under Chipset, Fresno Logic xHCI (USB 3.0) Controller or
http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/555/DriverDetails/Product/xps-13-l321x?driverId=R9WKR&osCode=W764&fileId=2998648840&languageCode=en )
Run the driver and choose to “Extract without installing”
I assume you know how to add a driver package to WDS and add it to a boot image.
Plug the dongle into the left-side USB port (doesn’t work in the right port)
Power on the computer, F12, select Network and PXE boot
Plug in the external hard drive into the right-side USB port as the target for the captured image
Then do the usual WDS process to capture the image
This would be almost identical to deploy an image with WDS.

From my personal experience, I wouldn't go for an Integrated card. This is one of the most important components for Photoshop, so invest in a decent graphics card (ATI or NVidia). It doesn't have to be a really exepensive one - I have been using ATI Radeon with 256MB of RAM on my Dell Studio for almost two years and it still rocks! (even when I work with 3D in Ps CS5 Extended).
I would also invest in more RAM (this can be added easily - I bought extra 4GB as my Studio came with 3GB).
I wouldn't worry about the processor - I'm on Intel Core 2 Duo - and it works very very well, it's very quick which is very important as I'm training Photoshop.
I hope this helps.

Should I pick the Macbook Air/Pro or the Dell XPS 13?

Hello everyone!
I'm a 10th grade student in a international school, where we are allowed to use laptops instead of our regular notebooks. In my class no one uses a notebook, so I would be the first one.
My idea came from the fact that I broke my arm, and am unable to write normally for the next 3 months, as my hand is in a cast. I am currently writing on my iPad, which is nice, as I can only use my left hand for typing. I didn't really think much of it, but after few days I realised how easy it is to type on a tablet instead of on a piece of paper.
I took my exams on a PC and I was easily able to write with my left hand only. The experience was much better, as I was able to erase all my mistakes/ rewrite someting I didn't like… but let's get to the point.
After I finish my iGCSE's, I'll be going to the IB diploma programme. It is very rigorous and requires a lot of work, so a laptop would be very helpful. The three laptops I want to choose between are:
1. 13" Macbook Air
2. 13" Macbook Pro
3. New Dell XPS 2015 13" (http://www.dell.com/us/p/xps-13-9333/pd?oc=fncwp1512h)
Now I know about the rumors of the new Macbook Air 12" with retina display, but the idea of having one port only doesn't appeal to me. I currently have an iMac 27" late 2013, along with an iPad and an iPhone. It is better to stick to apple just for the whole sync. between all devices, or is the Dell better in terms of performance? The ultrabook would be used for typing essays, editing videos (I'm doing film at school, so we get assignments like that pretty often) and of course web browsing. Gaming isn't really a priority, but to play some easy-going games such as garry's mod or turbo dismount on the go would be nice.
So what do you guys this is the best pick? I want the laptop to last another three years before I go to uni, and that's the reason I want to go for either the mid-spec. MacBook Pro/Air or the fully spec. Dell XPS 13. Price plays a role here, as I can only pay max. 1500$ for it, so I cannot afford the fully spec. MacBook Pro 13".
Ps. I really like the touchscreen in the Dell XPS 13, but does it affect the battery life much? It's really important that it lasts at least 8 hours a day, as I start school really early in the morning, and finish late in the afternoon.
Thank you for your answer,

Re: Totally misleading information in flyer and price tag for the Dell Inspiron 1764 i5 laptop

I am looking for buy my first lap top, I was sold on the Dell 1764.... I decided to do a quick search first. I was concerned when I read your comments. Would you recommend this computer?. This will be my first lap top, I am about to retire. My uses are mostly to download pictures, music, pay bills, communicate with my kids and grandkids and do some searches as I am now doing. If you do not mind let me know your recommendation.

That laptop would suit your needs, yes. Almost every laptop would, an the i5 series is a perfect midrange device.
Why do you say the price is misleading?

Another think is the card is there and recognized but the led light is not on so the card is not actually turning on and that can be an issue so can not scan for networks or even bring wlan0 up as I get this error.
SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such file or directory
Your help would be greatly appreciated as though I have used Ubuntu and Fedora for years everything worked out of the box so this is new to me. He he breakage I love Arch , learning so much.

Umm k looking into this and fixing this now. Went by the wiki page for the dell xps 1530 and it stated I needed the 65 driver, just figured out I have the 45 card so need the 45 driver. Will update later when I get it fixed.
K changed the driver and now can get wlan0 up ,, have to check out if everthing works now.

I have dell xps it runs at 3840 x 2167 and bridge lightroom and photoshop are unusable as the type is so small if win is re scaled to a low res the products still use full res and you canot see text can you help!

I am about to buy the above products for home and a laptop I bought the high res laptop for editing photos and the photos look great on the display but I cannot use photo shop and lightroom
has any body had this problem and is there a simple fix that I have missed
taking the res down in the control panel reduces the res but does not effect the programme
by the way the dell xps is great
dave

Thanks for the info I know that there were problems with the high res
I am using the latest photoshop and bridge from the cloud but only using the trial copy at the
moment
I will look closer and try to scale it to a suitable level
thanks dave

There is that pitfall in buying HiDpi laptops for Windows.
Only Photoshop CC 2014 has the option to scale the UI 200% in order to make it usable on these hires screens.
CC and earlier does not have this and Adobe would have to retrofit them. Not likely with older products.

Request - ICC profile for the combination - w520 and Dell u2711

Greetings,
Due to the lack of a colorimeter, I come to you with a humble request for few calibrated ICC profiles for the DELL u2711 and the quadro 2000m w520. Probably tftcentral's review might be a well guidance for setting up a ICC profile http://www.tftcentral.co.uk/reviews/dell_u2711.htm
Thanks in advance,

hey utzutz,
could you explain on why you would like to get this ICC profiles ?

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

[semi-solved] dell xps 12 touchscreen not working (2013, 12-9Q33)

does anyone know how to get the touch screen working the dell xps 12?
ran windows on it for a few days and there did not appear to be any hardware issues with touchscreen (or anything else).
deleted all windows partitions and installed arch + kde with no issues, boots and runs great. but no response from the touch screen.
have tried to cat every /dev/input/event* but get nothing when tapping touch screen.
beleve it uses an atmel maxtouch digitizer... which i think should be picked up by udev... but dont think udev even sees the device, it just detetcs boring old mouse.
this looks like a simmilar issue with ubuntu https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sour … ug/1218973 but on my system there is no indication that it is an i2c device.
tried atmel kernel but still no action https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kerne … mel-mxt-ts

Semi solved the problem by building a kernel with an ubuntu .config from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/ma … y/current/
I think i have multi touch working on the touchscreen, but this has resulted in breakage of the synapic touchpad which is now operating in a very simple mode (no scrolling or multitouch).
Probably best to follow https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sour … ug/1218973 and http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.input/32207 for a real solution

**imac vs. Dell XPS 720 or new 630--Help!!

Hi,
I have been using windows and pc products for over 16 years. I am looking at getting the new imac 20" 2.4GHZ but, I am also looking at the Dell xps 720 and new 630. I am video editing quite a bit. I always use Vegas 8.0 Pro which is fantastic!(windows only) Now, I am aware of bootcamp and love that but, my concerns are a few things.
1. The Dell xps 630 has a Nvidia 8800 GT video card vs the imacs ATI radeon hd 2600 pro. My question is will the 2600 hd keep up with higher end editing with an "imac 4gb configuration and 750 hard drive?"
2. BootCamp question: I am aware that if I dedicate more than 32gb of space of the imac hard drive to windows, it will be ntfs and "not" writeable only readable. My question is, when I record some files onto the drive while using windows through bootcamp, can I record them direct to the "apple side" of the drive so I don't have to dedicate too much drive space to windows to begin with. I only want to use just a little of the drive to have my windows programs on it. So basically I'm saying, can I be working in windows and saving direct to apple side of the partition. And if I can, will that allow me access them using windows if they are saved on the mac part of the drive?
3. Last question, if Dell xps has a far superior graphics card, why go with the imac? I really do LOVE that imac! I just want to know, with what my situation is, would it be wise to get the imac? Thank you all so much!!

I was faced with the same choice just a few months ago, so let me give you my perspective.
I have been a pc user for quite a number of years when it finally occurred to me that I was paying a premium price to help Microsoft debug the Windows os. The massive amount of bloatware that was included with EVERY manufacturer installed version of Windows started to get on my nerves. Plus the fact that daily virus updates were not an option, but a necessity.
If you wanted "safe" browsing, your firewall would block most sites, but you were foolish to turn it off.
Windows updates were just as bad. Your system would update willy-nilly without you having any idea what was being updated.
In short, it got to be a pain in the * just to go online.
With my iMac (20" 2.4 w/750gig hd) work is a pleasure. I have no fear of a virus attack on email or from any sites that I visit. Updates are a dream. I now check sortware updates once a week and there is usually nothing to update. My boot times are less than 20 seconds where on my pc it would usually take from 3 to 4 minutes.
If you get your iMac DO NOT get your memory from Apple, unless you prefer to be ripped a new one. I got my memory (4 Gig Ram) from OWC for less than $100.00 total, but there are many others out there.
hope this helps.

Dell XPS-17

I just need a yes or no answer (Or a detailed one as to why if you must). Will these specs handle Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 & After Effects? I'm sorry if this is a repetitive question.
2nd generation Intel® Core™ i7-2760QM processor 2.40 GHz with Turbo Boost 2.0 up to 3.50 GHz
750GB 7200 RPM SATA Hard Drive
NVIDIA® GeForce® GT 555M 3GB graphics with Optimus
17.3" FHD (1080p) with 2.0MP HD Webcam
Tray Load Blu-ray® Triple Writer (reads and writes CDs, DVDs, BDs)
I know there are Movie Editing laptops, but the Dell XPS-17 is my price range. What do you think?

You need a 2nd 7200rpm hard drive for your video files
Trying to use only ONE Hard Drive for Video Editing
You are a music conductor, with a baton that you use to point to various parts of the orchestra... this is like Windows pointing to various parts of the hard drive to do Windows housekeeping or to load program segments for various functions
Now, at the same time and with the same hand... while still using the baton to conduct the orchestra... pick up a bow and play a fiddle... this would be doing something with your video file at the same time as all the other work
You as a person cannot do both at the same time with the same hand
A computer is a LITTLE better, in that it can switch from one kind of task to another very quickly... but not quickly enough for EASY video editing
You need AT LEAST two hard drives (separate drives, never a partition http://forums.adobe.com/thread/650708 for more) with Windows (or Mac OS) and software on your boot drive, and video files on a 2nd drive so the boot drive is not slowed down by trying to do everything
I find that the three drives I use work very well for me, for editing AVCHD video... some people use a 4th drive, so video INPUT files are on drive three and all OUTPUT files are on drive four... I only bought a mid-tower case instead of a full tower case (my bad... but had to fit in the space available on my office desk!) so I use the three drives that will fit
Depending on your exact hardware (motherboard brand & model AND USB2 enclosure brand & model AND external hard drive brand & model) AND the type of video file, you may... or may NOT... be able to use an external USB2 hard drive for SD (Standard Definition) video editing
Steve Grisetti in the Premiere Elements forum http://forums.adobe.com/thread/856208 and Jim Simon in the Premiere Pro forum http://forums.adobe.com/thread/856433 use USB externals for editing
A USB3 hard drive connected to a motherboard with USB3 is supposed to be fast enough for video editing (I don't have such, so don't know) but eSata DOES have a fast enough data transfer for video editing... I have not used the eSata Dock below... for reference only, YMMV and all the usual disclaimers

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?

Powerbook or Dell XPS

I need to know about which computer I should buy for Gaming, the Powerbook 15" or the Dell XPS M170?

Hi Gamer --
Have you checked Google for reviews of its gaming capabilities?
This from the Dell Web site: "Gaming performance is the best we've seen yet in a notebook." Laptop Magazine, November 2005.
Hate to say it, but all things considered, if serious, processor-consuming and heavy graphics-requiring gaming is your overriding priority, above and well beyond everything else one might use a computer for, and you're willing to bite the two bullets of having to use Windows (good luck with that) and lugging around nearly 9 pounds of computer (did you see how ugly that bad boy was?), among other hard to swallow aspects of the Dell, then the Dell is the way to go.

Better CPU, slightly less GPU. Not a bad machine though.
If you like my post, or solution to your issue/question, go ahead and click on the little star by my name and/or accept the post as the Solution. It makes me happy.
I'm NOT an employee of Best Buy, or Geek Squad, though I did work as an Agent for a year 5 years ago. None of my posts are to be taken as the official stance that Best Buy will take on your situation. My advice is just that, advice.
Unfortunately, that's the bad luck of any electronic, there's going to be bad Apples... wait that's a horrible pun.

For the dell xps 13
