SOUND PROBLEM I HAVE BOUGHT A NEW INSPIRON 530 DESK TOP COMPUTER ABOUT 4 WEEKS AGO . BUT I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO GET SOUND FROM THE SYSTEM . COULD YOU PLEASE HELP I WILL APRICIATE FOR HELP THANKS .

Does it have a wireless card?

Check your battery status. It is possibly overheating whitin time and causing malfunction.

try to reset BIOS, check HDD for errors and CHEK RAM memory

Hello
You may try another graphic card, it is quite possible the card may not compatible with board, also push the RAM stick to place them properly may the RAM gone dislocated.
Hope it helps

cannot start my dell inspiron 570 desk top computer with the power button in front of computer

Yes, on most desk top the green light in the back tells you that you have power to the cpu. Even though the unit is off it is telling you that the current supply is still there. This is a good feature if you move your unit as soon as you plug it in you know if the outlet is on or not.

I know Radio shack is a bit pricey but they have these for a few bucks. Or Ebay has them if you know which one you need. good luck

unless you are capable of replacing the jak on the speaker u need a new pair. the wiring functions the the jack which is now broken

Try rebooting your computer. I have a similar desktop and sometimes after a period of use the drive seems to power down - if I shut down and start up again it seems to work again.

If this doesn't solve the problem, check the connections inside the computer to make sure the drive has the data cable and power cable connected securely.

If you bought the Inspiron 3 days ago, contact Dell for warranty service and a replacement. If you just bought the drive itself 3 days ago, take it back or return it to the retailer you bought it from for a replacement.

Sort of confused a bit I understand you buying a new system you say the sound does not come out the rear and centre speakers does the sound come out of any spearkers other than the two you mention if it is then your wirings are wrong if the sound is not coming out of any speakers then its the sound card BUT you will know this immediately you disconnect that system. The sound would be coming out of the laptop ordinaryly? which is it?
