9300 is here and I have a couple questions...

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
First of all - great laptop! I am impressed. Theres a tiny bit of light leakage at the bottom of the screen but its not bad... If this is a defect maybe I will try to bug them but I have seen numerous posts saying they have a bit of leakage... normal?

1. How do I determine what screen I have... (i ordered the WXGA+) it doesn't appear they installed the correct display driver for the screen as it just says default display.

2. I read you could make a winXP cd using some dell tool and it slipstreams the stock drivers right into the installation? Is this correct? and If so... what is this command.


Thats all!

2. goto start menu. Either under Dell or Accessories there should be a create restore disk. Pop in the disk and burn away. Next get the paper blue cd and look at the email address to get all your restore disks. Email dell, tell them you had a crash and can't get xp up and running, that you need to have the disks. Don't let them talk you out of it. Windows requires them to give you XP disc if asked for by customer.

1. Look around and see if this is correct, but if you hit the blue fn button and on the down arrows with the blue light down arrow you will reduce the screen intensity. take it to the absolute zero marker. Then raise it. If you get a difference between I beleive it is 2 and 3rd step you have a samsung. My samsung is fantastic. I wouldn't trade it for anything else. If not and you don't have that distinction you have an LG which is good as you have little light leakage. Supposedly the color is better on LG. I don't know and if you look at the posts here you will find that it is about 50/50 on opinions regarding the differing lcds. Just don't go looking for ghosts where no ghosts are none. If you like the display don't look for sparkles or light leakage unless it is so apparent and obvious that it is distracting.

ok so because there is no noticable change when I use the brightness controls - that means I have an LG?

Anyone know what model it is if i have an WXGA+? I want to go grab the drive from LG, or do they have unified drivers
