Dell xps 1530, gets black out

Hi David,

The fact you have no screen to get into the BIOS menu, indicates a big problem, and the culprit is the car power adapter.

Never, ever, use anything but the recommended adapter to power your unit, else disaster, followed by an agonising death for your PC/Laptop.

Your cars amperage is not compatible with your units amperage, unless you are using recommended DELL adapter for the car.

I hope you have not pickled your unit, but if so, you'll know better next time.

Cheers,
Peter

Your laptop have bios password. You have to remove it. If you the original owner you can seek help from Dell.

If you have not placed a password on the hard drive then you can recover your data from your hard drive by removing the hard drive from the laptop and plug it into an USB hard drive adapter.
Then plug this USB adapter into a working computer's USB port and this computer will see this as an external storage device. You can then open the various folders and files to back up your data.

hi

if your Laptop is on and your not getting screen the you have to do two thing

1 remove RAM from the motherboard
2 remove CIMOS battery from the motherboard for 10 to 15 mints

I guess you selected XPS M 1530. or for even any other dell laptop on this planet. you can install the audio drivers from the following page.

Remember: - even though if you are not using XPS computer. you can click on add and edit service tag. and enter your computer service tag. and make sure to check if the os you are installing for and then click on audio. and there would be 1 or 2 files. install the file which has driver written on it.

Hi there.
While you are in safe mode perform a system restore and take the computer back at least 2 - 7 days before the problems started.
Don't worry about loosing any data as system restore does not delete files.
Please post back if you need anymore help.

Good luck and thanks for using FixYa!!

check the sound properties in control panel

configure the setting for audio and voice

I do believe that xps 1530 is built in for vista, that only thing that i can suggest you is you can try to look for the specific driver on other xps laptops for example your chipset is intel mobile then choose xp as the operating system or just directly search in support.dell.com
