Hi, I realised that the fan of the Studio XPS 16 is almost always on, even when I'm not doing anything intensive, and it's getting really warm. My CPU usage is around 15%. Anyone else having this issue?

Anyone managed to find the numlock key for Studio XPS 16? So far I only managed to find Scroll lock (Fn + F5), Sys Req (Fn + F11/PrntScr), Eject (Fn + F10), Pause (Fn + F12).

You can wait till early September to order, the delivery shouldn't take longer than 2 weeks, and perhaps by that time, they'll have the new 1GB graphic card.

Just under Rm6000. Forgot about lunchtime promo... sleep.gif Yeah, it's not recession-friendly, but I plan to keep it for 2-4 years. Silly me for getting it, then finding out about the HD4670 a few weeks later. T.T I might buy a warranty extension later. Oh, and I wouldn't call it a "lappy"... hot enough to make my legs sweat through my jeans.

EDIT: On another note, I performed a clean Windows 7 RC install, thus unintentionally losing the webcam and facial recognition software. Does anyone have an installerfor it? I emailed Dell and they said the CD was out of stock.

Here you go, FastAccess:

(Note: This installer should only be downloaded by people who own the software under Dell Software Licence Agreement)

BTW, can someone please upload the original wallpaper (the one with grayscale leaves)? I'm still looking for it...

Sorry for the delay, the stock wallpapers for the Studio XPS 16 are up on the first post.

Thank you rclxms.gif
However, mine actually came with leaves in grayscale, and I think I didn't have the wallpapers you uploaded.... Guess it's different on different batches...

Don't think it's worth the price. Yes, the screen is full HD, but I think 16" is still a bit too small to really enjoy a full HD movie. Would rather spend the money to get a BD player for dedicated home theatre system.

hey , anybody know how to just turn off the screen ? When i closed the lid , the computer goes to sleep . Is there any button i could use to off the lcd ?

You just have to disable the standby function when the lid closes, and closing the lid will now result only in turning off the LCD screen. Optionally, you can use free softwares like Shutter by den4b to trigger the monitor turn off immediately, I'm using this method.

wth...i waited more than 2 hours and still no confirmation message about windows 7 registration

I had the same problem during the first 2 weeks after receiving my computer, but now, it'll verify quite fast, as I haven't make the confirmation, I went to the site from time to time and it is able to verify in seconds for every attempt. So perhaps you can wait for a few more weeks, after all, Windows 7 won't be out until late October.
