dont blast it too much. just a small subwoofer down there

Same problem I got. I went to Dell's website, downloaded all the drivers and installed one by one. Tedious, but it's the only option.

Also, W7 Ultimate is only 32bit I think, so that renders the laptop crippled as most of its drivers are for 64bit.

thats what im doing right now. downloading it one by one from Dell's web. Currently, the XPS 15 running on Windows 7 Ultimate 64Bit. just some other drivers still have (?) on it. Can anyone help

When i put my laptop on charging, it gives me very lil electric shocks, is it normal??

:')

Try other plug in different place?

also same. Sometimes when I touch the aluminium part. Ill get the elestric shock.

Different house, right ?

Since my SXPS 16 also have electric shock when I'm using it on my friend's place, but other place no shocks...

should I contact dell or it is not a big problem?

Well, if you tried other places also got shocks, better contact dell...

thanks

today, I tried to check my warranty status for the first time at dell website
but they said my service tag is invalid.. haihhhh

did u call them to ask why?

not yet.

You also got electric shock eh?

yesterday at mamak. at home no

I don't get any shocks, weird.

By the way, just announced. SB chips are being recalled, so I guess we'll have to wait for the new SB-chipped XPS 14/15s.

Engadget

plug i think it's the plug

if wait for the new non-faulty ones, probably need to wait until April-May only safe to buy...

If the socket isn't properly grounded then you'll get shocks, I guess.

Actually, it's 'safe' to buy now. Just that they're recalling the chipsets, so we're not entirely sure if the flaw affects the processor. If it also affects the processor, then whoever who buys a SB laptop, good luck la

Thank goodness I got my XPS 15 before the backlit keyboard ran out and all.

it doesnt affect the processor, but it affects the e-Sata port on the Mobo... as they stated, the port would deteriorate over time.. means we won't even be able to see the problems within the first few months or in short term..

since we're gonna buy 2-3 years warranty for our laptops, within that period if anything happens we can have warranty to change it....
if not, means the Mobo is just fine...

Well at least that's how i look at it..
