Nope , they will replace the whole rom for you , in front of you , in your house...

add the memory usage gadget and see how many ram is it using?

I disabled a lot of useless stuff ( Mostly dell app ) , and my ram usage drop from 50 % to 30 %. I can assure you that , its a lot lot stable.

I hope the problem is merely on the software site , if you cant solve it in a few days , i would recommend you phone Dell , i told them to replace the Mobo and the lcd for me , and they did it without giving me trouble. Now my 1520 is perfect!!!

Go to the window defender , and disable all those useless stuff , it will free your memory and your processor power , trust me , i see the difference

BTW , if you still cant solve the problem , you should call dell biggrin.gif

I was wondering , how to increase the frame rate of the webcam ?

The video captured is poorly recorded , with only 7 fps at most , with result in lagging...

The format selected is WMV with the option " higher quality" is selected.

I tested with lowered quality and other codec as well , same poor result occurred...
