Dell Latitude CP Sound Card - 85438 CD-ROM Drive Questions & Answers
Can not open cd player
Hello.
Look for a very tiny hole in the CD drive. Open up one side of a paper clip and push the point of the paper clip in the hole. The drive should open.
This may be a temporary measure. If the problem continues, then your drive would need to be replaced.
Hope this helps.

My dell latitude C840 is not bringing out voice again
I figure there are two possibilities here. First, there is an Fn function on the keyboard that will enable/disable the speakers on command. This function is shared with the "End" key at the upper right of the keyboard, and is used in conjunction with the "Fn" key, found next to the left "Ctrl"key. Holding down the "Fn" key while pressing the "End" key will toggle the speakers on or off. Second, there is the possibility that the headphone jack has been physically damaged while the headphones were plugged into it. That jack has internal switches that disconnect the speakers while headphones are in use. If the jack is damaged, the speakers will not operate. Unfortunately, most repair shops are not equipped to replace this jack, and the jack itself is nearly impossible to buy for replacement anyway. Hopefully your problem is just the "Fn" key.
How to fix my dell E4310 from freezing while im using it?
There are a number of reasons that the unit could be freezing up.
- Corrupted file(s)
- Low available disk space
- Viruses and/or malware
- Too many add-ons/toolbars/etc.
- Heat build-up
Number one is the hardest to find. So start with #2. The computer needs free hard drive space to operate. If the disk is nearly full or is very fragmented, this can slow the machine to a crawl. Check for available space and if there is plenty (20GB or more), then check for fragmentation under administrative tools. If the defragmentation tool recommends optimization, allow it to perform it and see if that helps.
For viruses and possible malware, run your virus scanner. It is always a good idea to get a second opinion on such things. Malwarebytes is a free malware scanner that works very well to find adware and some things that many antivirus programs fail to detect.
Many user feel that they have to have every bell and whistle. I've seen some browsers with 7-10 different toolbar add-ons. These almost always come with some adware and always slow down the browser. Uninstall all but the most essential toolbars for the best performance. Heat is a slayer of machines. Laptops are very susceptible to heat issue since they are often placed on beds, sofas, carpets, and yes, even laptop. Many of these units draw cooling air from the bottom and exhaust it to the side. Even those that draw air from the rear and exhaust to the side will often intake large amounts of dust, grit, and lint. These can partially or completely clog the heat sink unit and cause heat buildup of the processor. This will cause the processor to work slower and can actually cause it to thermally lockup, resulting in the need to reboot. Many units can be accessed to clean with a removable cover on the bottom; others may need to be serviced by a technician to clean.

Can you hard wire power to laptop?
NO
if you do, a noob will blow it to kingdom come. as in letting the smoke out.
the power-pack does 3 things
it has the correct DC voltage and wattages
and #2 prevents fire when the PC fails and things short inside.
and prevents huge damaging surges landing inside the PC
buy used power pack off fleabay and win.
i bet I'd mow one lawn and and buy one
How To Change Dell BIOS SplashScreen Logo on Dell Laptop
Hi Jean-bernard,
Dell BIOS is locked so no changes can be made to the same. However, there are third party software available in the market which might help but this might void the warranty on the computer.
Thanks and Regards.

E5500 Latitude lap top can't excess bios
On most Dell's, when you start it up, for a brief moment, there is a black screen with <F2> for BIOS, <F12> for boot options. Instead of holding the F2 key, try pressing it multiple times before Windows logo shows.
Also - on some laptops, you can go into BIOS only from a complete shutdown state.
