QUOTE(julchin_09 @ Dec 21 2009, 04:21 PM) my problem wth the battery took a different turn today... SIgh.... Just thought I would try booting up with battery so I unplugged the AC Adapter and ON the Lappie. Upon seeing the Lappie start, I plugged in the AC right away. I waited for the ALIEN LOGO to pop up but it didn't yet I see the ALIEN HEAD Power button is processing stuff. My screen still remained blank when to my HORROR, I heard the Windows Startup sound which prompts you to key in password or facial recognition. MY SCREEN WAS NOT WORKING. I Force shutdown and restarted 3 more times and no changes, screen still blank. I took out battery and used with only AC, and restarted 2 times only to be able to view the screen... Damn, 2 issues for me now dy. So sad.... CALLED DELL To report this to add to the battery Issue which they have yet to send an engineer to my house to do..... Sigh.....   Added on December 21, 2009, 8:01 pm QUOTE(julchin_09 @ Dec 21 2009, 03:21 PM) yes, I encountered that. So I turn off the pc, let it restart, then run the BIOS check to see if BIOS updated and EC updated? Then RE-Run the BIOS Flash 2ND time, this time both went smoothly and update complete... I have the same problem oso...bt I jz ignore it...Thanks.... if Only I saw this earlier i would have saved myself some worries the other night....

Thanks for emotional support guys, just thought I'd update problems here so you guys who just got your units can test out and see if the problem affects you or not.
I just called DELL Again for the 2nd time today to ask why the Dell Engineer did not come over? They told me that the Engineer has 4 parts that he needs to bring (4 PARTS!!!! OMG!!!) 1) New Adapter 2) New Battery 3) Power Socket (Which I can only suspect is something inside the lappie where the adapter goes into. 4) New Motherboard(!!!!! Now when I heard this I was like dang! A new motherboad? QUESTIONS QUESTIONS.....Refurbished? New? Have to replace?!!!!) The reason for the delay was that 1 part has not arrived! Dang, I have to cancel my trip out of town tomorrow so that those buggers can come over. Sigh.... Hope that'll be the end of the problem!!!! |
