We talked about shutting the site down before. Most seriously in when instead, we decided to go ad-free , keeping the site up as a public service. Today is different. Tucows Downloads is old. Old sites are a maintenance challenge and therefore a risk. Thanks Dan — certainly worth trying. It can also often be problem with high definition drivers not being updated. Hi, I have updated my Dell i5 inspiron laptop from Windows 8. This is in regard to my previous comment.
No i have not accidentally muted the laptop. Under device manager it says the speakers are working fine. I cannot find anything else wrong. I got my sound back. Machine: Dell Inspiron 15 N So downloaded latest IDT audio driver from dell site, uninstalled all audio drivers and then restarted computer, then installed newly downloaded driver, again restarted and bingo. Now works fine. Worked for me Dell Inspiron 15 N Could you please help. My new Dell vestro 15 in sound problem some sound is in and sm time will be out what the resonance plz send me my mail id.
I have a Dell Inspiron Core i3. It has a sound problem: only the left speaker works. It also sometimes produces a sharp noisy sound. What could be the problem?? Mandal I newly purchase Laptop insprion 15 i3 series found very less sound suspect hardware problem I contact Dell engg. Please guide me hou can solve the problem.

Audio problems with your Dell computer Are you having sound problems on your Dell computer such as bad sound quality or no sound at all. Sound problems are often related to Audio Drivers but this is not always the case.
Rule out the obvious Sound issues on your Dell device It may seem very obvious but it can save you hours of needlessly troubleshooting a sound problem if you first check the points below! Comments super driver. The headphones were showing.
Hi Fay — is anything showing in the Device manager? Have you tried a Drivers Scan? Machine: Dell Inspiron 15 N after upgrade it was fine but suddenly my audio output stopped somehow, tried everything disabling drivers, testing, updating. My headphones are working on my dell laptop but without them there is no sound from speakers. Hi Arti — have your tried attaching external speakers to see if the sound works then?
Can you suggest to me the best place for Dell laptop repair Dubai. Leave a Comment Cancel reply Your email address will not be published. Comment Name Email Website Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment.
The system performance is top-notch and bottlenecks cannot be found. Our test model comes with a combination of a fast Samsung M. This makes for fast booting, fast opening of programs and files and high data transfer rates. On top of that, the big hard drive delivers a lot of space for documents, images, projects, and other files. In total, Dell's Precision can house up to two M. AMD's Catalyst tool allows assigning the two graphics chips directly to programs or energy profiles if desired.
If you do not want to deal with this, you can also leave the selection of the graphics card to the usually well working automatic selector. The FirePro series targeted at professionals differs from the familiar consumer graphics chips of the Radeon series especially by a modified BIOS, special drivers, and a configuration tuned for stability.
Comprehensive software certifications, which ensure trouble-free interaction of hardware and software, are also important in the enterprise segment. Performance-wise, especially OpenGL-optimized software benefits from the special drivers.
Calculation methods which do not yet belong to the official OpenGL standard can already be used and make for a remarkable performance gain.
We have tested the professional field with the SPECviewperf. The results of these tests show the performance gain compared to the FirePro predecessors and the similarly priced Nvidia Quadro MM. The competitors can be significantly outperformed in many subtests. We also want to mention the price question in view of the fact that the Nvidia GeForce GTX dominates in many subtests. Medical, Showcase DirectX 11 , Maya, and energy test appear to profit significantly less from driver optimizations, but much more from pure hardware performance and standard functionality.
Thus, you could also consider a powerful consumer graphics card from a performance point of view. However, you have to do without other not unimportant properties like comprehensive support, software certifications, enhanced stability, extensive multi-monitor configurations or permanent load use.
This decreases the total system load and usually leads to faster results. In practice, OpenCL is primarily used in tasks like encryption, conversion, image and video editing or finance analysis. We have tested with Luxmark 2. Especially in ray tracing, the performance falls significantly behind the Nvidia Quadro MM 's, but it is better in cryptography, finance analysis and image editing.
Thus, the results are on par with comparable consumer graphics chips of the GeForce and Radeon series. For example, our test model achieves a very good points in the GPU rating of the Fire Strike tests and points in Cloud Gate in the familiar 3DMark benchmarks.
The graphics chip achieves Compared to the OpenGL runs no optimizations , which were run under the same conditions otherwise, it can achieve a few frames more. You can compare graphics chips extensively by means of our GPU benchmark list. Dell's policy is so extreme that the maximum power consumption falls from Watt to Watt. While the CPU continues to constantly work at 3.
When the CPU load is restricted to 6 simultaneous threads, the graphics card can use its maximum speed again and clocks constantly at MHz. Currently, it is not possible to change this behavior via BIOS or energy settings. On battery, the graphics card clocks at MHz in general and the system only achieves Basically, the mobile workstation Dell Precision has not been designed for gaming.
Nevertheless, the powerful graphics chip also allows intensive gaming. The titles we have tested always ran sufficiently smooth with high presets. Please check our extensive gaming benchmark list for further comparisons. In low load scenarios, the Dell Precision is often silent and the fan only runs quietly Under medium load, the fan noise first increases to Under full load, the system noise starts at this level and reaches the maximum of Overall the system noise is quite restrained without unpleasant or high-frequency noises.
However, permanent maximum load can still get annoying due to the noise level of It appears that the interface itself emits a lot of heat, since this segment only includes these interfaces.
Please note that our measurements are the maximums to be expected in practice. The temperature only gets that high when Prime95 and Furmark run simultaneously and the maximum thread count of the processor is restricted to 6.
If you do not restrict the system 8 threads , the clock rate of the AMD FirePro WM falls significantly see graphics performance , resulting in lower power consumption and waste heat.
The integrated stereo sound system is sufficient for simple tasks like some background music, video chats or short Internet videos. The sound characteristic is quite high-tone heavy with little mid tones or basses.
The maximum volume is good at 81 dB A and the sound is not distorted, but it suffers from the unbalanced reproduction quality. Thus, it is recommended to use external speakers when the system is used for presentations, videos in a small group, or as a jukebox.
These can be connected via USB, 3. The 3. The measured minimum power consumption with minimum display brightness, disabled radio modules, and Intel HD Graphics is very low at 6. If you turn the display off, it is even only 3. However, if you increase the display brightness to the maximum, the energy demand quickly jumps to In view of the used components and the display size, this is still a good value.
Under medium load, graphics and CPU are notably more used and require Under full load, it only increases marginally to Watt with our usual stress test condition, since the graphics card throttles. The maximum of The power adapter is rated at Watt, so it has sufficient reserve capacities. The Dell Precision can be ordered with a smaller 72 Wh battery as used in our test model or a 91 Wh battery with higher capacity. Both are completely integrated into the case beneath the front maintenance hatch.
The system load is a bit lower in the Battery Eater Classic test, which lasts 85 minutes. The full load result is only possible because the graphics performance is significantly restricted on battery with MHz. If the power consumption were as high on battery as our measurement of Watt in mains operation, the system would only last about 20 minutes according to mathematics. This in turn would cause overheating of the battery, an increased risk of fire and certainly a significantly shorter lifespan of the battery.
Dell's Precision was fundamentally revised and made up-to-date in many important aspects. The user gets a mobile workstation with very good performance, easy maintenance, suitable input devices, and a high-end Full HD display suitable for professional use in the new model year. As we are used to, Dell offers many configuration options and optional warranty and service extensions. However, we are not completely satisfied with the connectivity, which could have been better in a completely revised inch workstation.
Older interfaces have been removed, but cutting-edge ports like USB 3. On top of that, you have to do without an optical drive or a second 2. Moreover, it is not adequate for the test model that its graphics performance throttles heavily during the stress test and on battery. Dell Recycling Financing. Order Status Financing.
