Did anyone order the creative software upgrade with their S1555? If so, could u please upload the CD contents to rapidshare or any other file sharing website? I want to run the software as trial and invest on it, if it is worthy enough. PS: I do not want your serial key, i just need the...

No such problems for me. The stick fits properly, just like the blank provided with the laptop..

Logitech softwares (which come with their products) are known to effect the normal working of Dell's Quickset. Quickset is the integrated software which controls backlighting and various other features like power management. U will not be able to install XP straightaway. The laptop comes...

I will copy-paste something i had posted in an Australian forum some days ago .. Catalyst Drivers released by ATI cannot be installed on OEM products. This is due to some foresaken tieup between these firms (OEMs and ATI). But the official drivers can be installed on OEM systems. We just need...

I have emailed the quotation PDF, according to which i had made the payment of 52500/-. The only changes were 512MB GPU and back lighted keyboard. Now they are giving away 4GB RAM, when i ordered only 3GB was available. The rest are the same (P8600 and 320GB HDD etc etc).

53k for 512MB GPU, 9 cell battery and 4GB RAM is really good indeed. I got 512 MB GPU, 6 cell battery and 3GB RAM for 52500/- :(

Newer A06 Bios Released for S1555

I used *www.photofriday.com/calibrate.php to calibrate the LCD ..

I started something similar in another forum, please check it out in here *forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies.cfm?t=1210941

I got the same for 52500/-. Base config with the addition of 512MB GPU and back lighted keyboard. How come they charge u 4900/- extra? No freebies extra of course. The creative addon is just software, no hardware changes.
