This past Sunday, Aug 22, around 7:00 am I noticed the slow download problem in my laptop. I decided to call my ISP. Lucky for me the technician that help me was smart. He performed some tests and within 15 minutes he told me I had a bad modem. He set up an appointment for Tuesday Aug 24 for my...

Vick1000: My ISP is Comcast and I have access to my gateway/router. What setting should I be looking for to change ? Thanks for your suggestion Mike

As per suggestion from Kardonxt I followed steps from website. There was a driver update. https://www.reddit.com/r/Dell/comments/dd0rkn/how_to_fix_killer_ax1650x_wifi_problems_xps_15/ Download the Intel drivers, Killer Software Package, and Killer Uninstaller package. Perform...

I might have to open laptop and see what brand of the Killer Wifi card Dell tech actually installed. Might already be an Intel Mike

Thanks Kardonat. Dell tech already replaced Killer Wi- Fi 6 AX 1650x card. My guess it was a Dell part made in China. Your suggestion is to replace wifi card with one made by Intel. I found this on website...

Sorry to interupt, but could someone send me a link to download win 11 iso 32bits Zavier

It worked. Thanks

I have an issue I can't resolve. I am running win 10 version 20H2. I would like my documents in File Explorer to be shown like this 2/28/2021 3:35 PM. Any help is appreciated

My Windows 7 ultimate key was a Retail key. My laptop came with Windows 10 Home and was OEM. Zavier

I upgraded. That was too easy. It took less than 5 minutes. I learned something today. It shows Win 10 Pro activated, version 1909.

I need to save a few documents before I upgrade. Let you know outcome !

I enter Win 7 ultimate product key and it took it. Screen read "Upgrade your edition of Windows . Upgrading will add new features to windows" I could choose Start or cancel If I start, will it load Win 10 pro on top of home ? What is it going to do ? Advise...

No. I will wait until I have a problem with Win 10 home and need to reinstall. Then I will install Win 10 pro and type my key for win 7 ultimate. I can wait I have ideas now. You guys are the best. I check the website every day Thanks

I don't need any extra feature from Win 10 pro. To be honest, I am retired and Covid has me house bound. Middle of winter and I needed something to do. That's it !! Win 10 home is not broken and reinstall is a lot of work. Thanks

Thanks Chris. Not looking forward to do a clean install of Windows 10 Pro. Laptop is running fine. I would wait until I have an issue with win 10 home and need to reinstall. Then I install win 10 pro. Then I had this idea. Partition my laptop SSD and install win 10 pro on second partition. If...

I purchased a Dell laptop model XPS 15 7590 in May 2020. I came loaded with windows 10 home. I had an old desktop with windows 7 ultimate. The desktop was trashed. My question is, can I upgrade my new XPS laptop to Windows 10 Pro and use the product key from win 7 ultimate ? Thanks

Got it.. Thanks

I can't find the onscreen display or controls at the bottom of you monitor

Thanks. I found Intel Graphics Command Center. I can generate a new profile and configure the way I like it

Ok. No driver required. But I would like to adjust brigthness, contrast and color and I have no way to do it. Also not sure if the front lower panel on the monitor opens. I tried but I hate to break it Your help, comments appreciated Thanks

I recently purchased an LG 27 inch monitor model 27BL65U-W. I installed and I am running win 10. Looks great. I checked device manager and it shows that it's running Generic PnP monitor. The driver version is 10.0.18362.693 and is dated 6/21/2006. I click Update driver but it replies "The best...

Thanks guys. I like the suggestion "Just install Ubuntu and let it repartition your harddrive." but virtualization sounds a lot better. It's easy, low risk, but slow. I will install virtual box and see how slow/adequate it works. Thanks

One more question. How do I select win 10 or USB 3 Ubuntu ?

Ooops did not see this "Or if you just want to try it, run Ubuntu off a USB3 SSD drive". I like this idea Thanks

Bonnie, what u saying is forget separate SSD. Use SSD that comes with laptop

I think what you (mjz-5) are implyng is to partition the laptop SSD and install Ubuntu along with Win 10 in same SSD. But the laptop has two extra PCIe slot so I can add another SSD. From what I have read here, it's best to install Ubuntu in separate SSD.

Am going to purchase a Dell 15 in. XPS laptop and I would like to add (myself) an internal SSD so I can install Ubuntu. One problem I foresee is that in order to install Ubuntu I should disconnect the existing SSD. Could I install new SSD and load Ubuntu while other laptop SSD stays connected ...

Well guys: I set the desktop to "check for updates" over night. To my surprise this morning, they were all there. I install most of them staying away from Kb2952664 and Kb3035583. I am not interested in Win 10 yet. Thanks all for your help. This thread can be closed

I already tried Windows update fix. Same problem. As suggested by jrweis I been checking update now for 2 hours and still no updates. Read some were to delete the Software Distribution Folder in Windows. Is that a good idea..?? Thanks

I have a Dell Inspiron 531 desktop with AMD dual core processor 4000 and 4GB of RAM. I am running Windows 7 home edition. I have not turn on this desktop in a couple of month. It shows last update was April, 2015. So, I recently turn it on and went to check for windows updates. I have windows...

Format is last resort

Help me out. I can't enter into windows 7. It stops after I enter password. How do I get to the point to reactivate. ?

Sorry. It was a partition copy not a full image. The action was "copy partition from C: (the SSD) to an unallocated 100Gbit area on disk 2 (the hard drive)'

I have a Dell desktop Inspiron 531 with: 1. Originally configured for Vista, upgraded to Windows 7 Home premium. 2. AMD 64x2 Dual core 4000+ 3. 1 GB RAM (Might have 2 Gigs) 4. Kingston 120Gbit SSD (C:) 5. 250Gbits hard drive My problem started after I created an image using EaseUS...

If you still need one, I have a CD and a floppy of Win 98 still in it's case with product key

bigted: I think you will loose your bet. I bet if I pull Vista drive out, Win 7 won't boot. Reason (I think) is because MBR is on Vista disk. (Any comments/corrections here are welcome). Put Vista disk in, now nothing boots. I would then need to insert Win 7 DVD (which I have) and fix Win 7...

BigTed; Thanks for your reply: Does it matter if it's XP on the E: drive ?? For example - Win 7 (C: Drive) is label: Primary - boot Win XP (E: Drive) is label: System - Primary The reason I ask is that my other desktop is configured in that fashion.
