See currently I am using this Dell Latitude E5500 battery and I am completely
satisfied with the performance, so I will suggest you the same. As
Dell's graphics solution is based on the integrated Intel GMA HD and
waives a unit dedicated graphics from Nvidia or ATI. In addition, there
are a maximum of 8 GB of DDR3 RAM, a 320 GByte hard disk or a 128 GByte
SSD (Solid State Drive).
I have my Dell Latitude E6400 battery and I will provide some details related to this. The
housing cover is made of a metal alloy and very stable, although only
moderately rigid. Middle of the screen lock button and right below the
SD card reader with an Middle of the screen lock button and right below
the SD card reader with an Dummy SD Card. Notebook of right, center of
the removable DVD burner with eject button (to remove the burner). The
eject button can be locked at the base by a screw (included). In short
it provide all the functionality those are required.
This Dell Latitude E6500 battery notebook is compatible with Linux Ubuntu 9.10, a
system option that is not currently available as well as that of an SSD
up to a storage capacity of 128GB Other options that were announced but
not yet available, there are also a Blu-Ray unit, modules 3G / HSPA or a
fingerprint reader. This model features a conservative and professional
finish with gray / silver, as well as angular lines. It enjoys a robust
design thanks to the chassis Trimetal and reinforced hinges. The
keyboard has antimicrobial protection.
As usual with Dell, it is interesting to be able to customize more or
less. I will appreciate the example processor options as well as a
higher resolution, not to mention a 16/10 format better suited for
professional use a slab 16:9. In trade, also difficult to find a similar
model with 9 cell Dell Precision M6300 battery and hard drive at 7200 rpm. However, we
regret that no 64-bit system option is available, which is unfortunate
because without it, only 3 GB of RAM can be fully exploited.

Dell Latitude D500 Battery
I had bought a Dell Inspiron Mini 9 battery few years back. As the laptop
is quite old, it doesn’t work as fast as it worked earlier when I bought
it. There are many other problems with it. But, the main problem is
that the fan of my laptop is not working properly. As I work for long
hours with the laptop, I use it intensely and regularly for many hours.
As a result of that, the fan gets overheated very soon. This also causes
the touch pad to become very hot. And I am not able to touch the touch
pad because it is so hot. I have to find a solution to fix the fan as
soon as possible, before my laptop gets blown away. Can anyone please
help me fix the fan?
As you work on the laptop for long hours, it is obvious that the fan might be overheating. And on the other hand, your laptop is quite old as you have mentioned above, so there must be a lot of dust that must have accumulated inside it. In order to keep your laptop running smoothly you have to clean it regularly. You can’t clean your Dell Latitude D420 battery internally, just by wiping it with a just a cloth or something. You need to prevent your laptop from overheating. For this, you need to clean out the vents on the back and bottom of your laptop using a can of compressed air. It will clean the dust and blockage and will prevent your laptop from overheating. I hope this will help your fan from overheating too.

There are possibilities that the laptop gets overheated due to
continuous usage. Even pc’s get overheated due to excessive usage. The
problem behind the system being overheated is that it doesn’t get enough
cooling. The pc requires a considerable amount of space for its
assembly, in order that it has enough space to get the cooling that the
fan requires. It is the same case with the laptops. They too require
some free space where they are placed so that they get the cooling. So,
make sure you place your Dell Latitude D430 battery on a flat surface and there is nothing
blocking the vents. The vents should be kept in an open space so that
they are able to provide enough air for the cooling fan inside the
laptop.

HP Compaq Business Notebook 6710b Battery
Which is better, dell mini 10 or hp mini 10? I'm trying to help someone
choose between the two and don't know much about computers, the only
specifics i have is what i mentioned above and that they want a webcam
with it.
I have a verizon samsung intensity phone, its small, its slides. And today in the morning i had class and i got iced coffee before. I let it sit in the car holder until class finished HP Pavilion dv6700 Battery and came back. In the afternoon i put my phone where the ledge was underneath the cup holder and it was a little wet so i toko my phone away form there immediately and the back of the phone [where the battery is] was a little wet so i wiped it off and on the front it was a tinny bit wet so i wiped it off. The phone worked completely fine.completely.
The power button is also the end button on the phone so whenever i pressed end it worked. But when i came home today my phone was off, i don't why. It was in my pocket so maybe. I pressed the power button and it wouldn't turn on. I charged it, and it was charging HP 537626-001 battery but it turned off while charging twice when i tried. I put it back in the charger and its charging fine now. So did the phone just spazz? Because i don't see a reason why the power/end button would be broken? If it worked fine today cuz i used it, and charged it today, is it fine? Its still charging. And this phone isn't a year old and my friend says when i go to verizon they will replace my phone for free. Will they? If its broken?
I have a 4 year old p4 1. 7ghz which my mum uses regularly for word processing etc. Today i went to switch it on as usual and when i pressed the power button it didnt start ! No beeps, no lights, just as if i didnt press the button ! I bet it could be many HP Compaq Business Notebook 6710b Battery differrent problems. But where can i start diagnozing first? I already tried a differrent lead but it didnt solve the problem.

Which is
better-a dell inspiron (desktop) or a dell studio xps (desktop)? I'm
having trouble deciding which would be better. Inspiron desktops are
cheaper, but xps desktops are a little more expensive and i can't tell
what the difference is between the two brands.
What is a better computer the dell studio 1558 or the dell inspirion 15?
Im looking at the HP Compaq Business Notebook TC4400 Battery and dell inspirion 15 for a ew
laptop and ive seen mostly good reviews on both. Im not looking for if
the computer is worth its price but just for a general overall better
computer. Which one would be better.I have a 4 year old p4 1. 7ghz which my mum uses regularly for word processing etc. Today i went to switch it on as usual and when i pressed the power button it didnt start !

Dell Studio XPS 13 battery
I just bought
an hp mini 210-1100, and it came with 1gb of pc3-10600 ddr3 ram. I've
wanted to upgrade this to a 2gb stick, but when i purchased and
installed one, it would not boot. I couldn't even get into the bios,
just gave me a black screen. The new stick was also Dell Studio 1747 Battery, and was
supposedly 1333mhz. Now according to the hp service manual, the included
1gb is only 667mhz, and i must replace it with another 667mhz. How is
that possible when they're both pc3-10600. ? How can one be 1333mhz and
one is 667mhz?
In either case, i've returned the ram, and need to find whatever it is that is compatible with my laptop. Anybody know what i should do? Oh, and don't even try to tell me that my laptop Dell Studio 1749 Battery can't handle 2gb; it was an option in the customization, i only didn't choose it because it wanted me to buy windows 7 to get the upgrade (which i already had a copy of and have installed already, 64-bit). Oh, and my bios is up to date as well.

How do i get my Replacement laptop Battery ergonomic wireless mini mouse to "reconnect"?
My dad gave me this mouse to use for my laptop, and it's tiny, which i
like a lot! It's got the little tiny usb thing that you plug in. A few
days ago i accidentally hit the connect button, and now it won't work!
For some reason my hp mini 110 netbook wont power on. I thought maybe it
was that battery that over heated, but i bought a new Dell Studio P02E battery and cord
and still it doesn't turn on. The power light turns on, and the light
that shows its charging turns on when i plug it in, but it makes no
noises to show that its alive, and the screen stays off. Ive tried
running it on just the cord and it doesn't power on. Lights are on, but
nobodies home. Whats wrong and how can i fix it? Anyone else have this
problem?
Building a new system, so what power supply. A "i-star 500w x 500w dual
mini redundant power supply" or a ocz Dell Studio XPS 13 battery power supply ? I
know the istar is a server power supply but i hear that some system
builders are putting them into gaming systems now. Yes ill have sli but
ill be using a thermaltake vga dedicated power supply. But even so which
one would be better if i didnt even have sli. All this will be put into
a thermaltake armor case.
Dell Studio 1737 battery
How can i get my microphone to work on my dell netbook? So, i just got
my dell mini inspiron 10 today but when my friend and i were trying to
video chat, she couldn't here me. My microphone isn't on or isn't
working. What can i do?A week or two ago, my DELL Studio 1558 battery got knocked over and the
screen managed to get busted. I sent it to dell to get it fixed. I got
it back today and found out that my screen is practically half fixed.
One half of the screen is a few shades lighter than the other. And to
top it all off, dell completely wiped my hard drive. I lost a ton of
pictures and music because of it. I don't see why they had to wipe the
hard drive if it was just a screen problem and i don't understand why
they left the "fixed" screen like this, half light and half dark. Should
i complain and send it Dell Studio 1745 Battery back? I'm not sure what to do.
To my knowledge, no damage has been done to my dell inspiron 9300. But each time i try to turn it on, it looks as if it's starting to boot up but then it just turns back off. I'll click the power button and all the lights will flash, then the caps lock light at the top blinks like 5 times and it just turns back off. Any ideas?I got my Dell Studio 1735 battery in february, and i haven't had any problems with it. The other night, i shut down my laptop, and put it under my bed, per usual. The next day, i go to turn it on, and it will not turn on. I like, nothing happens when press the button. The light in the front wont go on when its plugged in either. Any ideas?
A family friend gave us a Dell Studio 1736 battery laptop that was lacking a power cord. Can we use the power cord for a dell insprion 9400 to charge it/use it? We plugged it into the wall and the green light showed up like it was charging, but we aren't sure if it's the right wattage.check the following link for service manual for removing the motherboard of a b130. Which is what you need to do to replace the power jack: http://support. Dell.com/support/edocs/systems/ins1300/en/sm/sysboard.htm#wp1110896.
My vista Dell Studio 1737 battery desktop goes into power saving mode everytime i start it!? My desktop screen says entering power save mode when i turn it on! This has happened a few times! I tried un plugging things and cleaning the dust out. But nothing works! I am able to get into safe mode (which is what im on now) but when i click start windows normally it goes into power save mode. If there is something wrong with the video care please tell me where that is!

DELL Studio 1557 battery
If you don't want to pay for another copy of xp and you want to use it
as a stoarage unit then just install a Linux dsitro, Puppy linux or mint
9 will use hardly any hard drive space and they look kind of similar to
windows xp. If you want ubuntu uses a little more space but is a nice
OS and it will work on your computer, I have a old DELL Studio 1536 battery with ubuntu
installed on it.Now i found a dvd called [dell win7 starter] came
with my net book. The problem is, i have no dvd/cd drive in my dell
netbook. I tried copying files on the dvd to a portable hdd , but
nothing worked there.
You know what is cool about Linux, it is free. So you can install and see if you like it and if you don't then go out buy a out of date OS from Micro$oft. Installing the Linux distro did no harm and it didn't cost you nothing, hell you never know he might like One of those Linux Distro's and stick with it.I still have my DELL Studio 1537 battery in my house and Ubuntu 32 bit actually had a faster boot time, multi task better and never gave me a blue screen like XP did when I had it on there.I noticed you just don't like Unix based OS, better start to cause Micro$oft is slowely going that way, the way windows 7 does it's boot up is based on Unix if you didn't know.
Please wait while windows connects to the "my wireless network" network. Waiting for the network. With a green status bar. After about two mins, it'll just disappear! I don't get any notification of some sort and goes back to where i started. I try to "repair the connection" and when i do, i get a pop-up from the task bar saying "unable to connect to wireless network". I do not know if it's the DELL Studio 1555 battery laptop or the wireless network. I connected laptops with my wifi before and there were no problems. I tried turning on & off the wifi switch, rebooting, i'm just so lost.
I have a dell inspiron mini 1012, it looked really awesome when i got it. Later i installed partition magic (big mistake) on the win7 starter. It asked me to fix a problem with my drive, i said ok. I restarted my pc & then windows get a blue screen and DELL Studio 1557 battery then restart & when i do f8 to go on recovery, i click on anything, its freezes, so i just managed to do a format. I did a clean format & now i have drive c:/ 200gb primary ntfs & d:/ logical, i tried so many times to switch between ntfs & fat 32, but no difference i see, except my removal hdd on ntfs says nltdr is missing or corrupted. So i tried every thing, i just got a bootable usb win 98. Worked , then got an error saying 'command.com invalid or something', then formated , then tried win me, it was good! And installed the whole installation. But then came to identifying drivers and freeze, then win xp which never worked, i tried it in so many ways.

Dell Inspiron 4000 Battery
I read some info on this about a week ago and thought this might help.
If it is a NIMH battery and the Bios utility is unable to calibrate the battery, it is likely that the settings in the EEPROM chip or the chip itself is bad. I am in the exact opposite position you are in, I can't get a battery calibration to occur, even when draining it to zero. There is a utlity from Dell called Batrcal.com, you could try. If you do a search you should be able to find it. I do not know if it will work with the Dell Inspiron 2600 battery, though. (It seems to not work in mine.) I would put the A05 bios back in, unless you have an issue that was fixed in the later revisions. The a05 does not have a battery health section, only battery state, and when working I got better results with the battery calibrations. Li-ion batterys do not suffer from the memory effect that nimh batteries have because of the eeprom chip that stores full and no charge capacities.
I guess this is a somewhat common issue. The battery on this Inspiron 2650 I got for free won't charge. Windows says it's charging, but it constantly stays at 0% until eventually it just starts running on AC power, with the battery still at 0%. The charging light flashes indicating it's charging, but if I wait until it says it's on AC power, take out the battery and test it by pushing the buttons on the side, none of them light up.I have a Dell Inspiron 2650 battery, battery lasts about 10 minutes. Are you looking for the voltages at the pins without the battery ??? I usually tap into the connections with wirewrap wire to make pigtail taps. It will tell you what the laptop is providing to the battery pack when it sees a load. I will check this one out with both the battery in and out.
I am having the same problem with my Dell 2650, not charging the battery, I bought a new Dell Genuine Battery and the same condition. I am thinking it might be more than just the battery but i dont have another Dell 2650 laptop to test this battery. I see where you are trying to check the voltage while the battery is plugged in, have you ever tried charging the battery without using the laptop?
I am trying to apply voltage to the battery to see if it will hold a charge (without using the laptop) just to make sure the Dell Inspiron 3800 Battery is ok. but i am not sure which pins to apply voltage to so as not to make the problem worst, do you have any suggestion? I am trying not to have to pull the battery apart.
You either have a bad battery, or an issue on the charging circuit. Try a different battery, although I'd expect to see a higher voltage on one of the battery pins even if the battery is bad. The exception to this is if the computer can't detect the battery. However, you mentioned a charge light coming on, which makes me think that the computer can see the battery. Make sure you are using a genuine Dell power adapter. Sometimes the computer can detect an aftermarket adapter and shut off Dell Inspiron 4000 Battery charging. You shouldn't be using an aftermarket anyway for safety reasons, but that's a topic that's been covered elsewhere. Check for shorted MOSFETs on the charging circuit - I've found that to be a fairly common cause for the battery not charging on laptops.

Dell Inspiron 2500 Battery
I got a couple of inspirons. Circa 2000 came with
millenium. updated it to xp-pro, wanted wifi and ordered throuh ebay.a
damaged one. Sounds like the charger is gone and the Dell Inspiron 1721 battery is shutting
down as it has not been charged. You cannot change processor without
changing bios. Have somebody with voltmeter test charger.. If you have
access to another computer go to Dell and give #s on bottom and they
will give you what it came with , my guess 512k max but they will tell
you which processor. Get both numbers as they may have had a choice of
AMD or Pentium
Why can't you access the BIOS..? You should just need to press a button when it is being started up, just after the POST beep - the button is normally either [Delete] or [F2], and you might find that it is displayed on the screen (often in the bottom left) as it starts up. Normally it would take longer for the CPU to heat up than 3 seconds, but if you aren't getting anything on the screen it sounds like it isn't completing the POST (Power On Self Test). One way to check whether the screen is FUBAR would be to connect an external monitor to the VGA port on the side and see what happens on that... If you want to check the PSU (which is basically the cable) then you can take the Dell Inspiron 2100 Battery out before you try to power it up and/or look at the "charging" light when you first power it up.
Wouldn't I get something on the screen though, or the other lights turning on? Currently, only the power light turns on, while before all 3 of the "Lock" lights turned on for a second. I would think that it would take a little longer for CPU to overheat. The light turns off after only about 3 seconds.If you aren't hearing/getting any fans going when you POST, then it is likely that the CPU is getting too warm and it is likely that the CPU is shutting itself down (hopefully) before any damage is done....My DELL Inspiron 2200 battery laptop seems to have gone into an endless recalibration loop. I thought something was odd when it asked me to plug it in when it was fully charged, but I followed the directions (charge, discharge, recharge) and when I started it again it gave the recalibration warning.
I've been through this three times and I'd appreciate any suggestions. It occurs to me I use it pretty heavily and haven't defragged it since I received it (used). It could just need a new Dell Inspiron 2500 Battery, so battery recommendations would be appreciated if that is the case.First, I have changed your Discussion title to give a clearer indication of your question. For future reference, please be as descriptive as possible in both the heading of your Discussion as well as the post itself.Now, a continuous recalibration seems to be an issue with the battery. I am not one to provide recommendations on any hardware components. However, I would almost bank on a faulty battery.

Normally it would take longer for the CPU to heat up than 3 seconds, but if you aren't getting anything on the screen it sounds like it isn't completing the POST (Power On Self Test). One way to check whether the screen is FUBAR would be to connect an external monitor to the VGA port on the side and see what happens on that... If you want to check the PSU (which is basically the cable) then you can take the Dell Inspiron 2100 Battery out before you try to power it up and/or look at the "charging" light when you first power it up.
Wouldn't I get something on the screen though, or the other lights turning on? Currently, only the power light turns on, while before all 3 of the "Lock" lights turned on for a second. I would think that it would take a little longer for CPU to overheat. The light turns off after only about 3 seconds.If you aren't hearing/getting any fans going when you POST, then it is likely that the CPU is getting too warm and it is likely that the CPU is shutting itself down (hopefully) before any damage is done....My DELL Inspiron 2200 battery laptop seems to have gone into an endless recalibration loop. I thought something was odd when it asked me to plug it in when it was fully charged, but I followed the directions (charge, discharge, recharge) and when I started it again it gave the recalibration warning.
I've been through this three times and I'd appreciate any suggestions. It occurs to me I use it pretty heavily and haven't defragged it since I received it (used). It could just need a new Dell Inspiron 2500 Battery, so battery recommendations would be appreciated if that is the case.First, I have changed your Discussion title to give a clearer indication of your question. For future reference, please be as descriptive as possible in both the heading of your Discussion as well as the post itself.Now, a continuous recalibration seems to be an issue with the battery. I am not one to provide recommendations on any hardware components. However, I would almost bank on a faulty battery.
Dell Inspiron 1526 battery
Your Dell Inspiron 1200 battery requires
three complete charge/discharge cycles before use and achieving maximum
capacity. It means the battery would have to be charged fully and then
be discharged fully. Repeat it three times before starting to use the
battery. By this way, battery's internal chemical materials can be
activated and its internal chemical reaction can come into the optimal
state. After the activation, the Dell Inspiron 1520 battery can be charged and used freely.
Problem is it keeps on turning off mid process I'm guessing it's because the battery keeps on running out but it's turning off at percentages like "97% depleted" and then charging up to 100% really quickly, which surely shouldn't be happening?As annoying as this is I have noticed that for the two times it has turned off it has been more depleted/charged (although we're talking 1% each time, nothing special) so should I keep on just turning it back on each time until it reaches 100% either way? And how long will this take? I'm thinking days... In order to prolong Dell Inspiron 1521 battery life, fast charge will have to be switched to slow charge(namely Constant Voltage charging method) when battery reaches 90% charge.
But the battery will have to be discharged completely once a month so that the battery activity can be released by such deep discharge and battery life can be maintained. If battery is idle for over 3 months, it is also necessary to conduct 3 cycles of complete charge and dsicharge to ensure that the battery is activated. Actually the battery needs to be used at least once or twice per month to release the battery power completely. Then fully charge the battery with AC power once. Please remember that it is always good for rechargeable batteries to use up the battery power before giving them a full charge. Because the li-ion Dell Inspiron 1525 battery used by laptop has its own laziness and would lose its activeness when being idle for long time.
It is also suggested to shut down the laptop so that battery can be fully charged. Do not remove the AC power during charge. In addition, the power of battery can easily be used up and most laptops have only one battery. For this reason, some manufacturers have developed a fast charge feature that enables the battery to replenish its power at the fastest pace after power draining up. One hour charge can give the Dell Inspiron 1526 battery back over 90% of its power. Why is not 100%? Because frequent fast 100% charge will greatly shorten the battery life.It needs to be reactivated. It is suggested to take out the battery from laptop when it uses AC power supply indoor to avoid having the battery get charged frequently.

Dell Inspiron 1501 battery
It's 5 years old and now won't boot up. It's a Dell Inspiron 1150 battery and I can get into the f2 , 12 and 8 menus but it just wont start
up. It offers me a battery re-calibration too but whatever i do, for
example, f8 and select last good configurtion that works it just wont
get going.I usually use laptops like these for network device configuration tasks
because of the serial port (assuming you have on on that model). They
are extremely useful for stuff like that. Not to mention you can have
them lying around and NO ONE will want it. :)
It's driving me nuts and your advice is greatly appreciated. We are a non-profit. Somebody gave us a DELL Inspiron 1200 battery (made around 2005) and they want a tax writeoff. I'm not sure we can actually 'use' it (it is below our minimum specs), so I don't want to agree to a tax writeoff. Given the specs and situation, what can we do with it?if it doesn't cost you anything to offer a tax deductable receipt go ahead and offer them one... for $10. That way they will get the hint that the device really wasn't worth anything. I would save it until I absolutely had no use for it however. If it had anything other than a celeron I would probably look for something to use it for but realistically would it even run Linux well?
Based on what you've said, I'm not sure if you've tried accessing Safe Mode from F8 however I suspect you've already tried that route. If you can't access Safe Mode then I suggest trying to repair the Windows installation or as a last resort restoring the system to factory settings.I had a friend give me an inspiron 1200 notebook that seemed to have a virus because it took forever to boot. I told him I could do a clean install of DELL Inspiron 1300 battery on it and it should fix it. I turned it on just long enough to put the disc in and restarted. Everything went fine until I started doing the updates. I noticed the battery indicator on the tool bar while I had the charger plugged in. The battery now is just about dead. Can someone tell me if I missed something or did this notebook just die on me? I hooked a meter to the plug and its putting out 19 volts. All help would be appreciated.
Repairing Windows can be done with the Recovery Console however for this you'll need a Windows XP CD. There many functions available with the Recovery Console however to keep things simple I'd suggest using just one command. So once you're in the Recovery Console, access the Windows installation and use the chkdsk /r command. This will look for problems and fix any it can.Without a Windows XP disk you will need to try the Dell Inspiron 1501 battery factory restore option (CTRL + F11 at the Dell logo). The restore option will erase the contents of the hard disk though, so if there are files you need on the laptop, you can access them beforehand by removing the hard disk and using it in a USB disk caddy with another computer.

DELL Inspiron B120 battery
After 3 grueling hours, I just got off the phone with their customer
service. I own an XPS m1330, supposedly top of the line and all that
jazz. Just 4 months ago the battery started losing its charge after 11
months of usage and they replaced it. So a couple months later I get
another problem with the heat sinks overheating, and they replaced the
faulty nVidia 8400m gpu. Ok so a couple weeks later, which is today,
either my computer doesnt recognize my AC adapter or it won't hold the
charge. It's been barely been 4 months and I need a new battery? So I
was talking to customer service, which was hellish, it didn't feel like
customer service at all. I ended up talking to several guys from the
Philippines (Virgil #172425, Patrick #165028 and Ivan #130640). They
were so unhelpful and rude and were basically yelling back at me and
making me feel stupid. It felt more like a sales pitch and were trying
to sell me an extended warranty for the battery. It's so obvious that
batteries are sensitive to heat and are prone to being damaged when
exposed to it. Their logic was flawed, and mentioned that the problem
with my motherboard overheating could not reach my battery! To heck with
that, I couldn't place the laptop on my lap until recently. I bought
the extended 2 year warranty thinking that the Dell Inspiron 9200 battery was included.
Just curious for all you complainers...How many of you bought a car and the sales person told you the tires were not included in the warranty? How many of you asked? I would bet dollars to donuts, they didn't tell you or show you. Yet, you aren't complaining or filing lawsuits to Ford, or GM, or whomever when you have to go get new tires after a year...Maybe you should sue every major computer and car manufacturer, because the reality is if you don't ask, they assume you are smart enough to know that consumables are not covered under warranty. Maybe that was a poor assumption of your intelligence? Think about it.I'm considering joining the Dell Inspiron 9300 battery class action lawsuit, but I might just give it another try. Call centers in the USA are much more accommodating and understanding in my experience, the Philippine call centers are just terrible. I'm never buying a dell again after this experience.
What a dumb analogy iphoneguy made. Every single time I bought a car
the first thing the salesman did was try to sell me the warranty package
for tires. So the auto industry is 100% upfront about the fact that
tires are not covered in their warranty. However, the tires ARE covered
by their manufactures warranty for almost everything except road
hazards (its just to bad that most issues with tires are caused by road
hazards.)
The better analogy, although similarly flawed, is the analogy to iphone
screens that are not covered under the apple warranty. However, there
again, they are very upfront about that and do not even try to lie about
it. Dell, on the otherhand, hides and even lies about the extended
warranty. Read some of the earlier posts, especially mine. I have the
rep saying the Dell Inspiron 9400 battery was covered under the additional warranty and
then disclaimed it. The recording of that conversation mysteriously
disapeared from Dell when they were challenged on it.
Moreover, car companies do not hide behind small fine print in documents that you do not get until AFTER you purchase the item. Remember, you do not see or accept the Dell warranty until AFTER you purchase it. In an automobile there is huge color flier that comes with your owner manual all about your tires and exactly what warranty comes with it, and who offeres it, and what coverage you get. If you want to see the warranty then open the glove box on any car on any dealer floor and you can see it.DELL Inspiron B120 battery has lost my business forever. My office is now exclusively HP, I just bought a HP desktop for mome last weekend and am buying a MacBook in the next few days. Tired with lying and weasiling out of deals. Tired of calling and getting someone from India telling me there name is Sam and then repeating everything I say to them back to me.

Dell Inspiron 9100 battery
I already saw that statement when I read your first comment here several
weeks ago. You must be under the mistaken impression that because I
commented here yesterday that was the first time I looked at this
thread. I don't need to go through the petition posts to know that sales
agents tell people things like this. In some cases I'm sure it's
because they're deliberately saying anything in order to close the Dell Inspiron 8200 Battery sale
and in others it's because they truly don't know. You can't say with
certainty that it's the former 100% of the time.
You suspect wrong. I don't have an attitude unless someone gets one with me when presented with facts in an impartial manner. This is what you did when you made the "company hack" crack. You can try to deny it all you like but that's the truth. If what I'm stating isn't clear to you it's only because you're being willfully obstinate. I'm just as frustrated as the majority of you seem to be. I understand the limited warranty on the batteries, and personally don't care to get worked up and frustrated about it - that really doesn't serve me at the moment. At the moment I am a student without a Dell Inspiron 8500 battery for my M140. Is it just me or is everyone noticing a trend here...the battery problems start almost EXACTLY a year after you make your purchase - JUST after the warranty expires. Its as if Dell has pre-planned the battery life out right on time, after the warranty is expired. Its almost like they do it on purpose. Make you think you're covered, and then immediately after your not, they get you.
As I said, I'm a college student right now, no job or extra income and no parents helping me out. So what am I supposed to do? Buy a new battery for every year I'm in college? What if I decide to go to grad school? As of right now my battery lasts an average of about 10 minutes "fully charged". Is there not a (cheaper) way to refurbish the battery instead of having to buy a whole new one? I know this isn't quite the same, but when my cell phone battery lost its life I took it into the customer service store and they "reset" it for me. It was back to 'like new' performance. I think it would be great if Dell could find a way to do that with their Dell Inspiron 8600 battery. I'm sure it would make many frustrated customers very happy.
Oh, and for the record, I'm tired of talking to another country when I call customer service. I had a guy who had no idea what I was trying to say, and I had no idea what he was saying. After a while I started speaking another language to him and he was going on like he knew what I was saying, five minutes later he finally said, "I'm sorry, I do not understand you." The customer service is BS....more of a headache than its worth. Well anyway, here is my question: If I have normal, regular use on my laptop, use the adapter as much as possible, set my computer setting for optimal Dell Inspiron 9100 battery life etc, how long should it stay charged for - AND - when am I going to need to replace the next one I buy?

Dell Inspiron 8100 Battery
i am outraged at the poor quality of my computer! they
sent me a free replacement for my first one and this is 2nd one. the
case of the laptop is always falling apart even though i take good care
of it, my battery randomly decided not to be recognized by my computer.
they conned my 75 year old father into believing that the Dell Inspiron 700m battery was
covered under the external warranty when he bought the computer for me!!Same issue. A dell only customer for 15 years until today when I called
customer support and wasted the better part of my afternoon on this
silly issue. Dell just lost another customer. I wonder if they
understand how many people will never buy from them again once they have
this experience. Will go to the apple store tomorrow where they have a
superior product, people and service.
I have it even worse. When I was sold my extended warranty I was told it covered the battery on my XPS M140. Well conveniently, the tapes of that conversation are not available and low and behold, they will not replace my battery.Honestly, my two and a half year old laptop has been nothing but problems. I have had the mother board replaced, the battery die, the keybopard replaced, the mouse pad replaced, the batter charger replaced, and now, just yesterday, they have to replace my ram chip.I will never buy a Dell Inspiron 710m battery again. My next computer will be an apple with the apple extended warranty. They replace/repair with no questions, and no talking to India for 45 minutes.
I have this problem too. I will NEVER, EVER buy another thing from Dell. FIrst of all, a laptop battery should last more than two years especially if you usually use the AC adapter, like I do! My son has an Acer laptop that is 2 months older than my Dell and was half the price and his battery is just fine! I absolutely refused to buy a Dell Inspiron 8000 Battery from Dell, so I found an equivalent on eBay for a third of what Dell charges for their highway robbery replacement battery and it's working just fine.
I too purchased an extended warranty on my Vostro 1550 and have been told that the battery is not covered. As several others stated, nowhere does it explicitly say that Dell Inspiron 8100 Battery are excluded under the Extended warranty. I am considered a class action lawsuit against Dell. Please email me if anyone would like to enjoin in this process. Several friends are consumer litigation attorneys.

Dell Inspiron 600m Battery
I had issue with the battery in my 1505 too. It was just over a year
old when I had the GPU burn through the motherboard and fry the
motherboard. Prior to that I'd never had any indications of the battery
being bad. Less than two weeks after the motherboard went out, I
noticed the Dell Inspiron 600m Battery was messed up. It shows it holds a full charge at
100%. All of the lights come on on the battery itself but it only lasts
10-15 minutes,I like some of you found out the batteries are only covered one year.
So mine was 48 days out of warranty when I chatted with Dell about the
issue.When Dell knew of the problem they should have notified all customers
and offered a recall or at least a permanent solution. But it seems to
me instead, Dell just sits on a large stock of those faulty adapters and
is handing them out to anyone within warranty. When your laptop
warranty runs out you're forced to by the correct (90W or higher) sold
by 'Dell'. And that's only if you catch the problem before it fries your
motherboard.
I know one thing, when I have a new laptop in the future.. 350 days into that first year, I'm going to really analyze that battery. I am having the exact same issue. I purchased my insp 1520 in Sept 2007 and just received the same battery replace error. Coincidence or defective manufacturing? I was told the same crap about the Dell Inspiron 630m battery only being warrantied for one year, which would have been less that a week ago. I was not told this when I purchased the extended warranty either.In fact, if the warranty started from the time I received the system and began using it, instead of the invoice date.... It would still be covered, as there were MAJOR delays in getting my system shipped last year. Not to mention, I very rarely use my laptop on battery power, it should not be worn out all ready. I'm highly dissappointing in DELL, their service and their products.
I just started experiencing the same issue, less than a month after this apparent one year warranty ran up! My battery from my Dell Inspiron 1520 fell to 0%, and it now will not charge. I even purchased the extended 3-year warranty, assuming all parts would be included (common sense to me). I rarely EVER use the battery for my 1520. I have only used the Dell Inspiron 6400 battery for about 4-5 car trips and occasionally at home when the charger becomes accidentally unplugged (which I then plug back in when I realize). I cannot even recall the last time the life went down to 0%, and now this time, one of the only occurrences where the battery has gone this low- it won't charge at all now? If the one year warranty is true, this is, to me, unacceptable. I have had this laptop for about 13 and a half months, and the battery, which I have rarely used, now appears completely dead. While a battery may be considered a consumable product, perhaps the product should do it's job more than a handful of times before malfunctioning!
Here's why the AC Adapters / Motherboards for a range of DELL Laptops keep dying on so many good customers:The design of the hardware circuitry for identification of the DELL AC Adapter is seriously flawed. The root cause is the use of an UNSHIELDED cable between the controller chip on the Mother board and the ID chip pin in the Dell Inspiron 640m battery. This unshielded lead acts as an ANTENNA and easily picks up electromagnetic pollution going straight to the chip circuitry. The hardware circuitry is not hardened to deal with electromagnetic fields.Consequently this energy is dissipated in the chips on each end of the lead ruining either one chip or both chips if the electromagnetic spike was powerful enough

If the one year warranty is true, this is, to me, unacceptable. I have had this laptop for about 13 and a half months, and the battery, which I have rarely used, now appears completely dead. While a battery may be considered a consumable product, perhaps the product should do it's job more than a handful of times before malfunctioning!
Here's why the AC Adapters / Motherboards for a range of DELL Laptops keep dying on so many good customers:The design of the hardware circuitry for identification of the DELL AC Adapter is seriously flawed. The root cause is the use of an UNSHIELDED cable between the controller chip on the Mother board and the ID chip pin in the Dell Inspiron 640m battery. This unshielded lead acts as an ANTENNA and easily picks up electromagnetic pollution going straight to the chip circuitry. The hardware circuitry is not hardened to deal with electromagnetic fields.Consequently this energy is dissipated in the chips on each end of the lead ruining either one chip or both chips if the electromagnetic spike was powerful enough
