hmm...just wondering....problems usually occurs when using vista + bioshock...what about xp + bioshock?

Maybe you can try to cancel the installation,remove your driver and reinstall it again if it's still stucked there.Yea,it's working well now,the temp,unsure about it but mine always around 60-70 degree celsius..

any idea how can i solve this bluetooth driver problem?
downloaded driver from dell website dy but still cant solve it

btw, now.. dell still selling m1210 model ka`?

haha...yea...
kinda hard to get online while back in PJ.
Juz finish my sem so now back in PG.

for the dirty black, can i use stuff like isopropyl alcohol(2-propanol) to rub it? i tried using soap to wash it off but to no results.
now my XPS looks like some lappie from petaling street....sob sob...

apart for these topic, my XPS is working fine...
3 days nonstop BT using wireless lan without any sweat.
so prond coz i m the only budak using XPS around my campus...wakakaka..!

owh!...did canceled it many times...anyway...installed my BIOS driver to version 8 now...it seems to be working fine...
and i didn't install that driver(wifi driver)...caused the wifi seems to be working properly back...
but there got some funny part...where, i need to at least restart my XPS two or three times to have a longer usage of wifi(which last non-switch-off for more that a day)...
did you encountered something like this?

did you formatted your XPS?...try to check the first page...Eiraku did included something about installing the bluetooth thingy...

from what i heard...they stop the XPS M1210 production...why?...interested?...

wah!...welcome to the club!....after soooo long...thought no more new member...
anyway welcome to the club....another proud owner of XPS M1210 reporting in...
congrats...congrats...
yeah!...no problem being different from others...with this M1210 being classic,made it more and more valuable and unique...

owh!...do you mind to share the changes color of your palmrest?...did you called Dell and talk about this problem?

haven call up dell yet.
does their complete cover warranty cover his type of cases?
the colour changes from silver to dark silver den to black n also there is some scratches due to my long "fingernails" *din know fingernails can scratch off the paint...
maybe due to long time usage n sweat from my palm reacts with the organic paint.
i might consider to get those laptop skins to stick it around the palm rest area.


btw for any DELL users who did format their laptop without switching on their bluetooth and cant be detected by windows after installation,
there is no need to reformat ur laptop again thou.
i have found a file from our friendly google that can force detect our bluetooth if windows cant.
not sure how to upload it up here thou....any ideas?
i found the file in some dell websites from other country which is not english

my DVD drive has stopped working.
evrytime i insert a DVD it will display : windows explorer has stopped working.

I checked on device manager n no warning icon is shown.
Have checked on google regarding the crash issue of dvd drive with iTunes in vista n uninstalled iTunes but nothing works for me at all.

Any solutions?

juz call up dell n get a replacement done.

huh... i did follow d steps. but this microsoft bluetooth driver make me headache

try put a link at here. should able to work it out

just found a dead pixel in my lcd... Is that covered under warranty or complete cover??

Complete Cover is the warranty.
Just call up DELL n provide them your problem n details.
They will check wether u are eligible to get a replacement done.
very efficient thou...

Ooo,ok.Nope,so weird..Anyway,try to shut down instead of restart,good luck.

owh!...really?...you tried but still not working properly is it?...

mind to check if there's any driver to force back the availability of wifi that suddenly disappear...

hmmm...tried already...but the result is the same...

So weird..Already tried to reinstall the wifi card driver?

here is my experience b4,
i downloaded a specific file thru ares n my connection keeps on dc.
but if i did not switch on ares my connection is fine all the way.
So are you downloading anything when the problem occur?

Besides this,
hardware auto gone disconnected mostly happends to near faulty hardware.
my old cd-rom goes undetectable each time i inserted a disc to read n need a restart to get it detected n eventually the cd-rom dies in the next few weeks.
So maybe ur hardware is juz telling u that its gonna die soon?
lolz...

No worries, dell complete cover is here for u

yups...i did reinstall it:
-Network adapters:
- Intel PRO/Wireless
- 1394 Net Adapter
- Bluetooth LAN Access

is there other thing that need to be try out to reinstall apart the above mentioned?...

owh!...really?....does that mean...there is a faulty in my wifi card?...
guess...the wifi card been suffering and dying to inform about its faulty...

been busy with other stuffs...guess,need to find time to call Dell and inform the problem/faulty...

any one interested with my system ?
warranty valid till 23-JUN-2008 (complete cover)
maybe going for Latitude system.
