oh for sure kazasho... icon_rolleyes.gif
i will try later today.

by the way guys,
i can see my HD partitioned into two C (OS) and D (system backup).
My HDD capacity is 250GB.
As we know 1kb=1024 bytes, thus 250GB is actually about 244GB in actual , rite?
but I can only see my total capacity is 230GB.
Anybody can explain? icon_question.gif

phoenix,

try update ur fingerprint driver from UPEK website to version 1.9.2.111

and then maybe try update ur audio driver to the latest from dell website...

the SP1 should come up after that...thats what i experience..also i had read somewhere in this forum. smile.gif

Vista SP1 is actually applicable to all vista version?

How did you update Chipun? Thru Windows Update?

they not totally bullshitting you la  tongue.gif . not only unlocked. but must make it happen only compatible with local telco.
just like at Australia, the Vodafone are partners with Dell. the card are also compatible with Vadafone signal.
user just need to order the WWAN card from Dell with hardware driver & register the service with Vadafone to get sim card with software provided = work!

but here Dell don't sell the WWAN, probability are local telco still not interested with this way but only getting the cheapo MIC brand external device for his customer.

thanks djlah for the information..
ermmm thinking to get one WWAN. ahaksssss whistling.gif

That seems like the symptoms of my lappie before it died. Time to call up and complain.
They'll probably give you a mobo replacement since the graphics is integrated.
Mine is D057F Rev00.
Btw, what whine sound do you mean cos so far other than the DVD and sometimes loud fan, I've experience no other sounds.

pmmonkey,
go back few pages and you can find a sample of whine sound posted.
