I had the same problem, SD card reader would not work neither would the firewire port or the pcmcia card slot. Every once in a while thoughthey would work.
After talking to Dell a few times a tech came out a replaced my motherboard...
Well been waiting all day for the tech to call.
After I spoke to Dell those ports starting showing up, very strange. Then last night I popped in a Secure Digital Media card and the laptop locked right up, I rebooted and now as soon...
I seem to be having an strange issue with the devices on the right side of the laptop. PCMCIA, Digital Media Reader and the firewaire port.
What happens is that when I boot up the pc these devices do not appear in the device manager,...
I have an xps gen 2 only about 3 weeks old, In the event log there is an error when I boot up saying Service Control manager a device or driver failed to load intellde
Does anyone know what intellde is so I can track it down.
thanx
