I see @_@
My battery wear level just went up to 5% :/ Time to try out your technique for the next 2 weeks :p
If battery wear remains same I will continue using your method :p

BTW don't you have a ups for your desktop at home?
Yo can do this too. Connect a spike guard to ups=> remove laptop battery and run lappy on ac power from the spike guard. That way even if powercut occurs, you won't get a total shutdown of lappy :p

P.S:- Is the "Enter" key a little repressed than all the other keys? Very slightly though. It seems to be at a slightly lower level than the other keys.

i "had" UPS, current one's battery has lived it's life and now dead, so soon buying new one.. :p
And we don't have the UPS waala inverter, only simple one, so that also don't help in keeping the continuous electricity flow.
And btw, i can't use the lappy with it, i use my lappy in my room and my desktop is far away in the other room, so even a spike guard won't help there.. :p
nice tip though.. :)

^ Ah damn.

Btw what about the enter key? Is the one on your lappy a bit repressed too?


P.S:- starting your method of 3-4 days charge and use technique. :p Hope it works. What software do you use to monitor battery?

As DELL India has stopped giving the 32GB mSATA SSD with the 15R Turbo Models, can anyone please let me know if the currently shipping models have any provision for an SSD which we can install????

1.)Install driversweeper
2.)uninstall catalyst drivers which you are presently using.
3.)Use driversweeper to analyze and clean all "ATI-Display" related files.
4.)Install Catalyst 12.1 beta drivers(download beforehand).
5.) Report back here.

Ordered a dell 15R Full HD laptop, got the order confirmation on 20/11/2012.

Now the expected delivery date is showing as 12/12/2012.

Just wanted to confirm does it really take that long, can someone let me know how many days did they get their laptops after ordering..

The reason i am asking is because i am going out of town on 4th dec, and i had hoped will get the laptop before that.

There cannot be any accurate answer about your question as far as my experience is concerned.I ordered dell laptop on 3rd november,my delivery date was 20 and today it went to 30 nov,the current status says work in progress.While my cousion ordered same laptop with same configuration(core i5,720p display) on 8th november and he received it on 15th itself.
When I tried to keep that point with dell representative...he everytime repeats that he will investigate this and expedite my delivery.Today I phoned him and he said that they are facing shortage of backlit keyboards,therefore the delay
So u can get u laptop within a week,or 3 weeks or till Delivery date or it may go beyond that
But Lets hope for the best

Do not go by the expected delivery date. From my personal experience, your sales representative is they best source of actual delivery date. I was seeing a delivery date of 7th Nov on the website, which meant 2 weeks from date of order. But my sales guy promised me 1 week even before i placed the order, and i did get it in 6 days ie. on the 30th.

I needed a laptop for watching movies, browsing and occasional gaming. I wanted a fast laptop. After much speculation, I finally ordered Lenovo Ideapad Z580 (i7 3rd gen/ 1 tb hdd/ 8 gb ram/ 2 gb nvidia gt 630m gpu) on flipkart. I dint go for dell inspiron 15r turbo coz i heard it has some battery/BSOD issues. I can still cancel my laptop. Should I do it and order Dell inspiron 15r Turbo coz I heard der r some probs in ideapad series on running win 8. Plz help. I am damn confused.

My main issues are that I dont want any heating issues with my laptop. It should not be slow. It should not hang or have any random BSOD.
