Dell Inspiron 1720 Notebook Questions & Answers
My dell laptop keys 1QAZ KEYS ARE NOT WORKING
if a row is not working, in this case at an angle, it usually means either the keyboard is going bad, or the cable is not in right. Often unplugging and replugging the keyboard into the MB will fix a missing row.

My dell battery charger less than a week
The problem might be with your battery and not your charger. The lithium batteries that are used on laptops have a definite 3 year lifespan to them. Once that time passes the battery will no longer charge to 100%, and it will discharge quicker and quicker. Dell has a built in battery minder program installed on their hardware. If you left click on the Quickset icon in your Taskbar, a window with 3 tabs will open up. The last tab accross the top is for battery health. You can click on this tab to see if there are any warnings for your battery. If it is close to the end of its lifespan you will see a message similar to "Your battery is able to charge normally. However it is reaching the end of it's usable life. You can experience a longer operating time with a new battery. You might want to consider purchasing a new battery now." Once your battery does reach its end, you will get a red warning balloon stating the battery is now at the end of it's cycle and needs to be replaced.
If you do not see any of these messages then the fault probably lies with your charger. The only way you could test this is to try another charging of the same model. If you do not own an extra one then you will probably have to take your system into the local repair shop to have them test it out.

My laptop fails to start...
Your operating system is damaged, First try loading default value in your bios menu via in the exit tab, then save and exit which could be clocking error registration. If that doesn't work, I would assume that the operating system is currupted and you need to repair your operating system with the recovery/driver cd that came with your system. Load that into your drive, and change the boot option to dv/cd as boot priority and follow direction from there on. Should be a option to repair windows and a option to reformat and clean install. You want to repair first, to see if the promblem is solved. Please save or copy any important data before formating your drive. If you should have any question please feel free to ask.
