Help Precision 3560 repeatedly applying BIOS update

1 Upvotes

I have a couple of Precision 3560 laptops which are repeatedly applying the same BIOS update via Command | Update. msinfo32 returns a date of 3 Sep, but the information on the Dell support portal says that 1.53 was released on 16 Oct. Did Dell repeat a version number?

Would it be safe to roll back the BIOS one version or should I just wait this out?

Help Laptop making a hissing noise aroudn charger port area.

I have had a Dell G15 for a few years now, and it recently started making hissing/squealing noises sometimes. It usually happens when I plug the charger into the laptop, but this is the charger that came with it, so I don't understand why this is happening.

I’ve had this gaming laptop for 5+ years now and it only just died on me. I don’t know anything about laptops or pc but hoping I can get it fixed. Just wondering what the main logic board is? Is that the motherboard? And do I need to worry about Bitlocker recovery key or is that something else? I’ve been googling it but I don’t understand 😅🤣 I’m in New Zealand

Hello Dell Subredditors, I am working on a Dell 0K793X motherboard on a Dell G15 5530. However the harness is not included with this motherboard, can anyone help me identify the harness part name and number that adheres to the white part? Stock photo shows it included.

Question about WD19TBS for my Dell 5421 and 5k2k 120hz monitor.

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for advice on whether my current setup can support a 40-inch 5K2K ultrawide monitor (5120 × 2160) at 120Hz, and which monitor would be the better choice.

My current setup:

  • Laptop: Dell Latitude 5421, Intel Core i7-11850H, Intel UHD Graphics
  • Dock: Dell WD19TBS
  • Current monitor: LG 38WK95C (3840 × 1600)
  • Connection: Laptop → WD19TBS → DisplayPort → monitor

I’m considering two monitors:

  • LG 40U990A (5120 × 2160, 120Hz, Thunderbolt 5, DisplayPort 2.1)
  • Dell UltraSharp U4025QW (5120 × 2160, 120Hz, Thunderbolt 4, DisplayPort 1.4 with DSC)

My main question is whether either monitor can run at its native resolution of 5120 × 2160 at 120Hz through the WD19TBS, using one of its DisplayPort outputs.

According to Dell’s WD19TBS documentation, the maximum listed resolution for a single display is 4K at 60Hz, but I’m wondering whether 5K2K at 120Hz might still be possible with DSC, depending on the laptop’s graphics capabilities and the monitor.

A few specific questions:

  1. Can the WD19TBS output 5120 × 2160 at 120Hz through DisplayPort, or is this a hard limitation of the dock?
  2. Would connecting either monitor directly to the Latitude 5421 via USB-C/Thunderbolt provide enough bandwidth for 5K2K at 120Hz?
  3. Would using the dock’s HDMI or USB-C/Thunderbolt ports make any difference compared with DisplayPort?
  4. If 120Hz at native resolution isn’t possible with my current setup, would you recommend one monitor over the other, considering that I’d prefer to keep using the WD19TBS?

I’d appreciate any real-world experience with this combination or similar setups. I want to make sure I understand the limitations before investing in a new monitor.

Thanks!

Dell pro rugged 14 rb14250 rain resistance outdoors

I am slightly confused on whether this model (Dell pro rugged 14 rb14250) could actually be used when it is raining heavily outside. Mostly because of the uncertainly between IP53 and IP68 protections while actively using those laptops in the rain.

Does one require fully rugged laptops like Dell pro rugged 13 to do this?

Other Precision 7750 GPU Upgrade

2 Upvotes

So, I am starting to mess around with AI LLM's and image generation. My current setup has the Quadro RTX 3000 w/ 6GB of VRAM. I see that the GPU is upgradable in the 7750 using another Dell DGFF-compatible card and I see the Quadro RTX 5000 w/ 16GB VRAM. The extra VRAM would help.

Can I just take one of the RTX 5000 modules and swap it in place of the 3000, or are there other things I would have to acquire? I've seen some posts about people upgrading the 7750's without the card altogether and having to buy the DGFF cables, power cables and fan/heatsink assy, but since I already have one, I would think I would just need to swap the card?

Help Dell P2425HE and P2425H monitors failing after just over a year - Is this a known issue?

1 Upvotes

I have been using Dell P2425HE and P2425H monitors for just over a year, and I'm facing a concerning issue.

About a month ago, my Dell P2425H suddenly stopped displaying anything. The backlight turns on, but there is no picture on the screen.

Now, the exact same issue has occurred with my Dell P2425HE as well. The backlight comes on, but the screen remains completely blank.

Both monitors have developed the same problem within a relatively short period of time, which makes me wonder if this is a known issue with these models.

Has anyone else experienced the same problem with the Dell P2425HE or P2425H? Is this a known hardware or firmware issue, and were you able to get it fixed?

I'd appreciate hearing about your experiences.

Help Finally got my Dell Refurbished laptop and it's locked to Ford.

Post image
179 Upvotes

So after waiting for my Dell Precision 7770 to arrive, I finally got it today, only to find out it's still registered to Ford through Windows Autopilot.

Seriously, how does Dell Refurbished sell laptops without checking this stuff first?

Called Dell and apparently it'll take 3-5 days to get it removed. I know it's not the end of the world, but it's pretty annoying to finally get the laptop and then have to wait another week before I can actually use it.

I've seen some people mention using Rufus to install Windows offline and bypass the setup. I'm tempted to just do that and get started rather than wait around.

My only concern is whether I'd end up having to set everything up again once Dell finally removes the lock.

Anyone else dealt with this?
