XPS M1330 won't turn on

nqfaq — Wed, 09 Dec 2009 01:21:12 +0800

Need help,

My laptop quick intro, Dell XPS M1330 , nvidia and warranty xpired

Problem:
When I plugged the power cord to the outlet, the blue light on the ac adapter goes on,
BUT when I connect it to the laptop, the blue light disappears and there's no power going to the laptop.

I've tried different outlets and that doesn't seem to be the problem. At first i thought it was the ac adapter but it obviously is receiving a current when its NOT connected to the laptop. Only when I connect it to the laptop, does the blue light go off.

My xps m1330 is just under two years old.

Does this sound like a motherboard failure or a GPU failure or something else to you? The machine won't power up at all, so I'm thinking the former or something to do with the internal power supply perhaps, but I'd love to get lowyaters opinions on this

While the rest of the mobile phone industry has been producing ever slimmer and sexier handsets, so-called 'smart' phones have struggled to keep up. Hampered by the need for usability (yes, I know it sounds silly), practicality and power - and the fact that Windows Mobile doesn't work that well on small screens - most smartphones have traditionally tended to be on the pocket-stretching side.

That is beginning to change, though. The Palm Centro recently demonstrated that you can fit a usable QWERTY keypad on a device that doesn't require a belt clip to carry it around, and I liked the Asus M930, a beautifully-designed clamshell phone based on Windows Mobile Standard, again with a full QWERTY keyboard, but still small and sexy.

But nothing I've yet seen quite beats Asus' latest, and most exciting, PDA-style handset for sheer pocketability. The Asus P320 measures a mere 100 x 55mm and is 13.4mm slim. It weighs just 105 grams, too, which makes it the smallest, lightest Windows Mobile Professional device I've ever come across. It's more compact even than the HTC Touch and Glofiish X600 - even my small hands look gorilla-like in the presence of this dainty device. Amazingly, given such diminutive dimensions, the P320 also includes a GPS receiver, so you can add full in-car sat-nav via the microSD slot on the side if you want. There's also a Wi-Fi adaptor packed in somehow.

Verdict

It all goes together to make a well-rounded smartphone that's just about the most pocketable Windows Mobile PDA phone you're likely to come across. Unfortunately, though, there's no getting around the fact that the P320's small screen makes using Windows Mobile Professional even more fiddly to use than it normally is. But if you don't mind getting the stylus out occasionally and want the push email and office document features of a Windows Mobile device without the bulk, it's a very solid option. And the inclusion of a GPS receiver in a device this small is just the icing on the cake.

more review: Notebook Review

Summary

The Fujitsu S2210 LifeBook is powered AMD's Turion 64 X2 processor. Designed specifically to deliver high-end performance and security in an ultra portable size and value priced package. The 13.3" screen gives you all the room to do your work and the lightweight makes it easy on the shoulders when bringing work from the office to the road. Get mobile with the Fujitsu S2210 LifeBook today.

Features

* Processor: AMD Turion 64 X2 MT-52 1.6 GHz
* Screen Size: 13.3" TFT active matrix XGA (1024 x 768)
* Memory: 512 MB (512 MB x 1) / 4 GB (max)
* Hard Drive: 40 GB
* Optical Drive: Modular DVD/CD-RW Combo Drive
* Networking: Gigabit Ethernet 10/100/1000, 802.11a/b/g

* Included Operating System: Microsoft Windows Vista Home Basic
* Battery Life: 2.5 hours
* Weight: 4 lbs
* Warranty: 1 year limited on parts and labor

Biometric Security

The optional biometric fingerprint sensor along with OmniPass software from Softex Inc. allows user authentication and password management for all Web sites and system log-ins. The fingerprint sensor is located below the touchpad and takes the place of the scroll button. The scroll function still works by sliding the finger over the side of the touchpad.

With OmniPass, the user only has to swipe the finger or remember a single master password. That reduces the number of lost passwords and the hassle of managing all the passwords.

Wireless LAN
The LifeBook S2210 notebook offers Atheros Super AG Wireless LAN (802.11a/b/g) technology. The optional Wireless LAN delivers the best connectivity and performance and is backward compatible with the 802.11b standard. Super AG lets you browse the Internet at a fast transfer rate of up to 108 Mbps when connecting with a Super AG enabled base station or router.

Bluetooth
The integrated Bluetooth feature provides wireless connectivity for wireless devices at close proximity. For example, Bluetooth can be used to wirelessly transfer/ synchronize data to and from different devices such as PDAs and cellular phones. It also communicates with peripherals such as mice, keyboards, and printers wirelessly, minimizing the constraints and clutter of cables. The typical transfer distance for a Bluetooth device is up to 30 feet. Designed to take advantage of a typical workspace or PAN (Personal Area Network), the purpose of Bluetooth is to simplify the exchange of information and interfacing of devices within close proximity. When considering Bluetooth devices, keep in mind that the system as well as the individual devices must support Bluetooth.

Media Slot

The media slot accepts Memory Stick media, Secure Digital (SD) cards, and xD-Picture cards for quick and easy transfer of digital photos, music or video to your notebook. These flash-based memory cards require low voltage to read data, and can store data files without requiring power. Since they use solid state architecture and have no moving parts, they are very reliable and offer storage capacities up to 4 GB.

Modular Bay
The modular bay offers flexibility to meet your needs. The modular bay can accommodate a DVD/CD-RW combo drive, Dual-Layer Multi-Format DVD Writer, or a bay battery. For mobile professionals who do not require a media drive while on the road, a weight saver can be inserted into the bay to reduce the notebook weight.

ATI Radeon Xpress 1150M
Built on the stable Radeon platform and AMD Turion 64 X2 technology, the integrated PCI-e ATI Radeon Xpress 1150M delivers industry-leading 3D graphics and mobile-optimized performance.The Xpress 1150M providesadvanced functionality for today's graphics-intensive business and communications applications, the latest 3D games, and high-quality digital entertainment. The UMA or shared video memory is user-selectable on the BIOS level with options upto 256 MB (factory default: 64 MB).

Fujitsu Shock Sensor Utility
In the event your hard disk drive experiences excessive vibration or shock, there is a possibility that the read-write head will come in contact with the rotating platter, resulting in a "head crash." If this happens, data loss may occur. The Fujitsu Shock Sensor utility is a sophisticated hard disk drive protection system designed to minimize the likelihood of such an event.

Inside select Fujitsu notebooks and Tablet PCs there is an accelerometer that constantly senses for any sudden movement, including free falls, excessive vibration, or sudden impacts. Fujitsu Shock Sensor monitors movement from three axes: front-to-back, side-to-side, and up-and-down. The sensitivity can be adjusted by the user to accommodate different working environments.

If a sudden movement is detected, the read-write head is quickly retracted to a safe zone, reducing the possibility of a head crash and the potential loss of data. This technology reduces the risk of your hard drive being damaged and your data being lost forever.

Problem details
I just want to know what is the different between wireless router and wireless access point. I have a note book with the wifi 802.11 a/b/g supported.

Belkin Wireless-G Router with 4-Port Switch Model: F5D7230ak4 RM200++
D-Link DWL-G700AP Access Point RM200++
Aztech WL730RT4 Wireless G 4port Router (54Mbps) RM160
