Hi Jerry Walls,

You may want to try updating BIOS and Video drivers using the below link:

http://dell.to/1bgp5go

Input service tag, click drivers & downloads, select the right operating system, download BIOS under BIOS tab and Video driver (depending upon the type of video card the computer has) under Video tab.
Check if this helps. If not then try using a known good external screen and let me know the results.

Thanks and Regards.
Kiran Kumar.

SOURCE: dell inspiron 1318 lcd screen completely dim

The backlight in your LCD has gone out. You will need to replace the entire LCD. You can look on ebay or here, you will be paying around $300 for it.


Good Luck!

SOURCE: i can't find the wireless

Go to the start menu and click where it says run or type in right above the start button in the white field and type ncpa.cpl then push enter. Where it says wireless network, right click on it then click enable. If needed, right click again and view wireless networks or Connect/Disconnect then connect to the wireless network. Also there could be a tiny switch on the right side of the computer where you turn on the computer, there might be a button to click to turn it blue. Hope this helps

[email protected] Please help me with bios password for my dell latitude E5500 Service tag: HHGMF4J-2A7B Please help... Thank you in advance

The BIOS-password exists for _your_ protection; if a thief is in possession of your computer, the password prevents the thief from using the stolen computer.

As the owner of the computer, find the original sales-receipt, to prove ownership, and telephone Dell, to get assistance from Dell to bypass that password.

I need to change my DVD to a read write DVD. I am not sure how to get the old DVD player out to replace it.

Hi diane_snyder,

You can get the service manual for Dell Latitude E5500 from the dell website to help you remove and replace your DVD drive.

Click Here to go to the page that has the service manual. You cannot jump directly to the Optical Drive Section in the manual. You have to go step by step.

If this information was helpful, please rate it.

Thank you for using fixya,
