    Dell XPS M1530 not taking start

    I am using XPS M1530 since from last 3 yrs 8 months. Day before yesterday, I have safely shut down the system, inserted a battery. yesterday when I tried to start up my system, it was not getting on. I found there is no LED glowing on the laptop. I tried it from battery but no change in the status.

    On AC adapter, the LED light was glowing and it remains on evenafter connected to laptop.

    if the fault is in motherboard then what probably the fault, as I think it may be the DC to DC converter. I have yet not checked the motherboard.

    It has nVidia on board...


    Please help me on the same .....



    have a great day to all of you

      More than likely the GPU needs to be reballed or less permanent reflow'd. I have seen this before on this model.

          Dell E6400 PT434 type Battery Charging Stuck at 1%. Battery Pinouts?
          by Bowline
          My question pertains to understanding the control circuity inside a Dell PT434 type battery used in Dell E6400, E6410 and other Dell notebooks?

          Does anyone have a circuit diagram for the inside of a Dell PT434 battery and/or a description of how the control lines work to control this battery?

          My reason for asking is I have a battery which I cannot get to charge beyond 1% in a Dell E6410 or E6400.
          The LED bar graph charge indicator on the battery shows one LED lighted when the info button is pressed.
          I have tried multiple different Dell power adapters. My Dell...

          Dell Pro 13 Plus PB13250 Bios Unlock
          by Akhlz001
          Hi,

          Could someone help trying to unlock this BIOS, seems that Dell have changed the layout of new Dell Pro 8FC8 bioses from checking HXD - 4000 bits do not need changing, only 2000. However after FF the section starting from '01000' upto 2000 bits and then soldering the chip back it seems that the microchip on the motherboard is recovering the bios back to original settings after first boot. Has anyone found a way to crack this extra layer of security Dell have implemented? Seems both HP and Dell have upped bios security to match Lenovo by implementing extra measures on a separate...
