Just call DELL Helpline and ask them about it

I'm thinking of bumping up my RAM too, currently 1GB. Having 3+ GB would help but I'm unsure if systems bought around mid '06 are able to support more than 2GB. Or are they all the same? Anyone else who bought their 6400 around that time have 2 sticks of 2GB RAM in their system?

Dont upgrade ram through dell. 1gb costs less than RM100.

Can the dell diagnostic be used on other pcs? Anyone tried?

Recents upgraded from others i read is around 3GB plus plus

Isn't it a little waste to have 2x 2GB dual channel when windows xp can only detect it as 3.5GB? (correct me if i'm wrong, I heard of this from a friend).
I'm going to hantam 2 x 2Gb also. Sick of lagging in games.
Btw, my current ones are of 533mhz, can anyone confirm if 6400 can support 667mhz ddr2?

Nothing wrong with it, you can proceed but the XP will read only around that
try la, may be you can report back after that to us what happen

I'm having graphic card issue, certain games is not compatible with my x1400 and dell website seems like not updating the driver anymore, is there others driver can resolve this? like omega driver?

Changed one stick to 2Gb, so now I'm having 2.5Gb of ram, will see how, maybe I'll add another 2Gb later.

i'm also interested in this. thinking of upgrading my gf laptop's RAM from single 512mb DDR2 533mhz to 1GB x2 DDR2 667Mhz.

Dell Inspiron 9300 user here, planning to let got this 17" lappy and get a smaller one.

hi guys

i just want to know what are the dell bluetooth card module is compatible with dell 6400?? because there's my fren using dell 640m but i dont know whether the bluetooth card in 640m can be fixed into 6400!

any idea guys??

I think is the same, just plug and play, try it DIY

bro are u sure?

because the bluetooth module for 640m is 350 and the one for 6400 is 355!

i'm not sure what's the difference on both of this module..jus dont want to simply try because dont want to spoil my fren's bluetooth card!

anyone know where can get the spare part of this 6400? i think need to replace new motherboard. called dell, they said the price is about rm850. huhuhu

Bro, I confirmed Bluetooth 350 & 355 are fully compatible for both 640M & 6400. just make sure remove/reinstall correct driver, worked~

other common spare part like processor, ram and hard disk, I guess you can get it easily but such as unique part like motherboard not so easy... unless there is 2nd had used unit want to sell out... no retailer for mb except direct from dell. I suggest the best is request quotation from dell to extend the warranty 1yr to replace mb, which is more worth on that. else think of new system la... call 1800881306

okie bro but one more thing abt the both BT module..

where does the BT card located for 640m? is it next to the battery like 6400?

Do you know what are the difference between the both? what i know is that BT 350 is the older version and the BT 355 is the never one!!

The BT for 350 is 7 metre and BT range for 355 is approximately 10 metre...do correct me if i'm wrong!

thanks
