QUOTE(revived_irfan @ Jan 17 2014, 12:56 AM) Hi guys, is it normal that I need to press the power button quite hard to turn on my Vostro 5470? At first I thought it was broken but it seems that i need to press the power button quite hard. In my situation, I need to push the button deep until it sounds 'click', then after that I need to further push it until the light comes out... call dell to replace....mine also have this problem.. |

It says NOT compatible with Mini PCIe slot for WWAN/wireless cards.
