QUOTE(red-queen @ Jan 15 2008, 10:27 AM) bro, my laptop seldom shut down.. will try it la.. thanks a lot man.. try it tomolo see it works or not..i have this problem with my 1420. as a matter of fact, i read that alot of dell models also have this problem. u can try going into bios and change the HDD acoustic settings. by default the value is Bypass. i changed it to Performance and i didnt have the creaking sound anymore. give it a try. hope it works for u.  @alexnvidia.. im using black colour 1520 as well.  do we need to download new drivers to enable to use the simcard slot..? |

QUOTE(alexnvidia @ Feb 28 2008, 07:45 AM) great shots. i have actually dismantle my laptop lots and lots of times, can practically do it blind folded. 1520 is built like a tank, so it should be very safe even for the faint hearted. i then took the liberty to replace the thermal compound with Artic Cooling MX-2 on the T7500, 965 chipset and 8600M GT chip. also, i noticed the laptop's heatsink and fan get clogged with dust real quick. so you guys better watch out for overheating issues. and best of all, it's really fun. i havent really dismantle till tat deep yet.. coz bought it in October.. i think can try replacing the thermal paste with my Tuniq MX-2 should make better performance lo..  cheers |
