DELL Studio 1537 intermitently disconnects from my wireless network then wont find my network but finds several others in my neighborhood that are far away or says no wireless networks available. My other laptops and wireless devices are connecting just fine? HELP

take the battery out and see if the computer boots up. if it does then you will have to replace the battery. most of the time when the charge lights blinks the battery is bad

Inside the DVD drive is a laser optical eye. This eye get's dirty.

Suggest remove ALL power, then open DVD drive tray. Use a can of compressed air for computers to clean, and aim down towards the bottom of the tray.
(Remove AC adapter {Charger}, and Battery)

Disk cleaners have the tendency to wipe the 'gunk' off, then wipe it back on.

Also make sure you still have burner software. Nothing like going to use the DVD burner one day, only to find the Nero burner software was just a trial.

It's FREE, and NOT a trial.

Plus a DVD drive is mechanical. Wears out over time. Has a 'Life Cycle'.

Just an example. You may find a better price from another reputable dealer.

The DVD drive is held in with ONE screw,

Vote me a 10 when this works :) BTW its an ez fix

The Dell Studio 1537 has 2 video options, UMA Intel and ATI HD3600. Both solutions are built into the motherboard and essentially not upgradeable

use dark edition win xp profession and select full option version 5

This website contains all the files you need to get Windows XP running with all devices on you Studio 1537.

Just pick your version: 32bit/64bit. The files are clean. Used this exact setup to run my machine.

Click on Start and type CMD. Open CMD and type ipconfig. Check out the IP address V4 for the Local area ethernet adapter or wireless area adpater depending on wireless or wired connection. Any ip address other than of the class 169.254.x.x shoud be considered good. If you have an IP address is any other number other than the above you have a good IP address. to test the internet connectivity type PING www.google.com. If the results are Packets sent 4 Recieved 4 Lost 0 then the issue could be due to Internet Explorer bing corrupt or a firewall blocking the internet access. Power off the computer. Power on the system and as soon as you see the Dell logo please tap the F8 button 3 - 4 times. You'll get to teh Advanced Windows boot option screen. Select safe mode with networking and see if the internet works in the safe mode. If yes then it could be the firewall. Uninstall you antivirus and check.
