change laptop CPU??? by
Al Dente
I have a Dell Latitude CPX with a 650MHz CPU... it's socketed, so is there a
chip I could use to replace it and boost the speed, say to 1GHz??? If so,
what chip. And would there be a problem with either heating or the
powersupply?

New 8440 - 400gig HD - partition?? by
SusanD
I've just rec'd my new Dell 8400 and with a 400 gig hard drive I feel
the need to do some partitioning to make Backups reasonable.
Since so much comes loaded on it, I don't want to start with re-working
the whole HD.
Is there some feature of XP Pro that will allow me to do this easily

Trouble Removing Dell Support Icon from System Tray by
FXDWG
I'd like to remove an icon in my system tray, (the Dell Support Icon
which comes on at start up). Since I never use it.
When I open it up, it says to shut it off, use Add/Remove from the
Control Panel. I tried that and get an error. Basically, it won't
let me remove it.
I'd appreciate any...

Dell support options by
wayne
Since people don't care for overseas support from Dell I will let you
in on some not too well known information. As you probably know
businesses revolted big time when Dell decided to move support
overseas. So businesses have US based support. Employee purchase plan
users also have the same...

Going to order soon, want some opnions (Still Raid ? also) by
Bryan
I'm getting closer to placing my order for a new Dell. Now I see the 8400 is
gone?! Does the 9100 Bios support Raid like the 8400 does? What's the "new"
8400? I see it can't be the 5100 as it does not have the 533Ram?
If I order real soon I'm leaning toward the 9100 SB version, "free"...

Q regarding floppy drive uninstall by

I recently added a floppy drive to my desktop (Dell Dimension 2400)
and would like some advice on how to get rid of the stupid thing. It

reason - and there was...

how do I on a Inspiron 9100 by
miket6065
I have an Inspiron 9100 and have a question. I looked at the Owner's Manual
and cannot find a reference one way or the other.
But I can hook up an exterior monitor and assume I can use a USB keyboard on
the 9100. Sort of like a docking station is what I am think of. But if I
close the lid...

Power supply for Dimension 8300 in UK by
Rob Nicholson
A friend's son's 15 month old Dimension 8300 power supply has failed. A
slight red herring was that the LED on the motherboard lit up so I suspected
maybe the switch was faulty. That took a lot of dismantling to discover it
was fine. Connected up a spare 500W standard power supply that I had...

Powers on but won't boot by

When I turn on the computer it powers on. The hard drive seems to be
spinning but no signal to the monitor. The motherboard seems to have power
because the heat sink on the chip is hot. The fan at the rear of the case
doesn't spin but the power supply fan works. The light on the power switch

TravelLite Module by

Well, if anyone wonders what the elusive TravelLite module looks like...I
got mine today.
Dell sent it to me free of charge and must have darn near overnighted the
thing to me today.
