You can set the Acoustic Setting to quiet in BIOS but performance will be affected.

Hi guys,

How do you people maintain your M1210? My palm rest getting dirty liao :s22: If view top down can't really see anything, but if from an angle, can see black stuff on the palm rest.

Also, the right side of the keyboard got a double sound. When you press down on the keys, it sinks more than other places. Do I have a case for warranty?

wonder why it take so long..
This is what Dell replied in response to my Direct2Dell blog post sometime in Feb 07.

"Hello,

I am writing in response to your Direct2Dell blog post about getting help with your Vista upgrade. Your order will stay in pending status until closer to the shipment time. You will receive an email with tracking details once the order ships. The upgrade program began on 10/26/06 and anyone who registered for the upgrade before you, will get the upgrade before you as they are being shipped on a first in, first out basis.

If you choose not to upgrade to Vista, that is your choice. The upgrade will be sent to you and you can decide then.

Thank you,

Jackie
Dell Customer Advocate
"

It stated shipment is based on first come first basis.

Any Dell user encounter this problem...?
My 640m can't connected directly to my Maxonline cable modem...(Limited or No Connection)
While my old Compaq lappy can connect to the modem using network cable directly......without any configuration, anyone can help?

Every time you change computer, you must power cycle your cable modem. Turn OFF modem for one minute and ON again.

The Sims 2 on XPS M1210

Greetings people.

I've tried to find the answer for this questions in other places but never gotten any good replies so this is it:

Can this M1210 (specs listed right side) play The Sims 2 "optimumly", that is, having most of the graphics option on and not end up watching slide shows?

Would greatly appreciate the experience of anyone who have bought the M1210 with the specs configured (almost) the same as what I'll be buying in May [look right]...

P/S: Intel Centrino Pro "Santa Rosa" will be out 9th May. Should I wait?
