    Dell Update Application for Win 8.1?

    I've always used the service tag when looking for updates. The Dell Update App does not show when using the service tag but as you found out looking under updates for Inspiron 15R SE 7520, it appears.

    Dell Update Application for Win 8.1?

    I have a old Dell laptop running Win 8.1 and I know that a lot needs updating. I've done a Google search but I don't think the Dell Update App is available for Win 8.1 anymore. Does anyone know if I can download the application from somewhere for 8.1 or if there is something similar that works...

    USB Ports stopped working on Dell Laptop

    I did install a program called 'Duplicate Cleaner Free' and used it on an external hard drive. Wonder if that could have caused a problem? It was after using it that I had problems.

    USB Ports stopped working on Dell Laptop

    I've found the 'Event Viewer' and there is one 'critical' for Kernel-Power (event ID 41). I don't know what else to look for or where to look if there is a problem with the USB ports.

    USB Ports stopped working on Dell Laptop

    Thanks for the reply I'm no expert with computers and I'm not sure if the USB driver is the problem. I'll have to google 'Event Viewer', but I'll have a look and see what it says.

    USB Ports stopped working on Dell Laptop

    I have a Dell Inspiron 15R SE 7520 laptop. The drivers most probably need updating even though there is no update when using the Dell Service Tag. I've now come across the 'Product Support Page' on this forum but I'm not sure what I should download to update the drivers for the usb ports. Could...

    New driver needed for Microsoft Mouse

    Just wondering if I can get a more recent driver. The one I have now says 2006!! Is there a safe website or tool that can find a more recent driver?

    New driver needed for Microsoft Mouse

    I've searched but cannot find if there is an updated driver that will work. The mouse is basic but keeps disconnecting and quickly reconnecting every few seconds . I have an old Microsoft intellimouse (I think that's what it was called) model ite 78cj that connects via usb. There seem to be...

    'The Network Path Was Not Found': Synology DS215j

    It seems to have sorted itself out. Haven't a clue how. Yesterday I restarted the Nas and my laptop and I still could not connect to the Nas. I have been trying some Google search recommendations and when they didn't work, putting the settings back to what they were. Perhaps that reset...

    'The Network Path Was Not Found': Synology DS215j

    Dell Windows 8.1 I am not a computer expert so could terms be kept as simple as possible. Thank you. A couple of days ago (after 3 years being able to connect) I was unable to connect to my Nas. Under 'Network Locations' on my laptop I have two folders for my DS215j: One for Music Z: One for...

    External hard drive disconnecting/connecting

    Yes, it gets its power from usb, but yesterday I had two of the same external hard drives connected for over two hours and had no problem. I don't understand why it was really bad a few days ago yet yesterday there was no problem? Sent from my Swift 2 Plus using Tapatalk

    External hard drive disconnecting/connecting

    I've had this problem for quite some time but now it has got a lot worse. I don't know what drivers I should check. I have clicked on 'update driver software' but it says it has the latest driver. I'm sure I've read that there is a problem with usb 3.0 and Intel? How do I know if I have the...

    Slow file transfer to Synology Nas since router reset

    I was getting good transfer speeds between my Windows 8.1 laptop and the mapped network drive 'music folder' I created when I first connected the Synology DS215j . I had a problem with my router so had to do a default reset. I am now getting extremely slow transfer speeds over the ethernet...

    Solved Unforget a network connection?

    I can't believe it, but I've just sorted it out. The problem was having UAC set to 'high'. This was stopping the profile from being saved (as far as I can work out). I remember (I think this is correct) when I had a problem a few months before and needed to change the network connection from...
