I bought a Dell 17 INspiron computer and the chip popped out of the front and I can't get it to go back in how do I fix this?

On one of the two 17" dells I've bought in the last year, one arrived with the front card reader dummy card plug loose (or popped out). As noted on the 7/6/2013 comment below, just push it in straight until it clicks- it does come out completely-check that it's right side up. My none functional "plugs" do have the notched corner and work to protect the slot until you get an SD card. It will be flush with the front edge when clicked.

You should be able to place it back by pushing it hard enough until it clicks. To be clear, are you talking about the SD chip? I don't have any problems with mine so I would suggest you ask a professional if you can't fix it by just hearing the click. It shouldn't be that much of a problem.

Hi,That happened to me, the chip for the tester is overloaded or burnt out.Just tell the seller and they should ship you a new one. When it is confirmed you are being shipped a new one, just strip the old one for parts

Send the product into Asus and they will repair it. I sent mine in, and they also found a few dead pixels and a broken card reader, so they repaired everything without asking. When returned it worked perfect!

Mary, this is Mark. I was trying to edit one of my earlier posts and accidentally deleted them all. I looked up your system and there are many driver updates for your system. go to this site:http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/19/Product/inspiron-17r-n7110?dgc=IR&cid;=259428&lid;=4647851Click the "analyze system for updates" button and let it scan your computer. It should then give you a list of the updates you require. Once you do this feel free to call me and I'll walk you through the rest. 702-817-4914

Go to the Dell website and under parts and accessories there is an option to type the service tag in. It should be fairly accurate, though it gave me the wrong part number.

I have relatively little experience with this type of thing, but got it changed out okay. Before you attempt it, I would recommend that the go to Google, and search for "How to install keyboard on Dell Inspiron 1420?" They will give you step by step instructions. I also did the same thing with a screen although I had a neighbor who does this for a living to finish the installation for me. With either the installation was much cheaper than sending it off. View the instructions online, however, before you jump in on it.

Call Mitsubishi and give them your model number and serial number. They might help you with the repair even if it is out of warranty.If you buy the chip yourself, only buy the newest revised version. DLP DMD Dark Chip 4. A "W" at the end of the model number of the chipindicates the newest revised version. The newest version is suppose to fix the dot issue problem forever. It will never occur again. That is what a repair shop told me.

try disconnecting the power, remove the battery , then replace the battery and the power , restart and if it does start call dell and have them remotely check out your laptop

It didnt fix mine. I ended up taking the hard drive out and buying another computer.

I bought one for my son for his 1500 and he said it didn't fit exactly like it should so it couldn't charge effectively but as inexpensive as it is, sometimes it is worth trying because some other models of the 1500 might work correctly. I am sorry but I am not sure exactly what 15000 Dell Inspiron that he had.

face plate may not fit correctly. This is an actual replacement for that unit however: http://www.mydvddrives.com/replacement-for-dell-inspiron-151545-sata-cd-dvdrwrom-drive-46943?gclid=CMGumMObhLsCFQ3hQgodm0kAyQ

I have a Dell Inspiron 1720- where is the battery situated and how do I replace it?

I guess its normal. It happens to everyone. I called the chip maker and they told me to remove it and reinstall. I guess it has to energize. I took it out , put it back in and the picture was better than new.so the response is to remove it and then reinstall. You'll feel like a professional came in and did it. Had my ipad on the side of me and youtube on the install of the chip and in less than a half hourm done dealmlet me know how you make out.

The motherboard on this model is small like a laptop and it only has a PCI-Express x 16 slot and a PCI-Express x 1 slot. You can check the manual here:ftp://ftp.dell.com/Manuals/all-products/esuprt_desktop/esuprt_inspiron_desktop/inspiron-660s_Owner%27s%20Manual_en-us.pdf

mine isn't but mine only worked for two days and they it broke down and neither amazon or blair will fix it. please take a word of advise that if you are going to purchase a computer, do not purchase one via amazon, the net or blair technologies. go to a dell dealer!!

Hello. That's probably over my tech level but.......you'll have to determine whether it is the physical port, where you plug it in, or an internal connection running from inside the computer, yea I know, no easy feat. Now, it could be your ethernet cable, try another cable first. I would go to the manual and see if there is a "replace your ethernet port". These things are usually pretty sturdy. Try everything else before trying to change out hardware. For what is worth.West
