thanks alot ratul!!

anytime..

btw guys, dell technician came today to see the charger problem, and the problem was with the adapter only, so he replaced the brick and now everything is working fine..
i think my inverter blew something in the brick, coz light always fluctuates alot while on inverter, guess it's battery needs to be replaced..

If your inverter is a pure sine wave one, then it shouldn't be any problem; only bad luck. If square wave, then don't use your charger when the inverter is working.

well i think it should be sine wave (i am not sure, coz it's a 9yr. old Microtek 750VA), but from now, no charging on inverter power..

May be not a sine wave.

I just got dell inspiron 15r turbo
i7 2.2 ghz - 3.2 ghz
7730m
4gb ram
1tb hdd
for 60000

The charger wire that came with dell is small.
So I am using hp wire to connect it to dell charger. Is it safe to do it ?

And how to turn of backlight of keyboard?

this product key cannot be used to install a retail version of windows 8
When I try to fresh install windows 8 using windows 8 upgrade assistant it says -- this product key cannot be used to install a retail version of windows 8
I used a software to know my product key

I tried to update windows update and its downloading updates so it means the key is genuine otherwise it would not have allowed to update windows.

Now how to I reinstall windows

No, he bought a NZXT gamma, Dell does not service WB, nor Odisha, sucks, even flipkart, ebay, all do it.

Can you install windows 8 core version (which this laptop comes up with) from windows 8 pro iso ?
*thepiratebay.se/torrent/7764223/Windows_8_Pro_MSDN_[x86_and_x64]
And what is MSDN version ?

And what applications coms inbuilt in the OS. When I would re install windows 8 they would get installed automatically.

PM'ed him, waiting for his reply, apparently things are a bit more difficult now, they don't service WB any more I think, neither Assam nor Odisha as well.

my laptop was with win7, so i had no probs with this version of win8..
the guy above (jakes) says that he is not able to install the retail version on the laptop, so i don't have idea about how it'll behave in your lappy..
And MSDN (Microsoft Development Network) is a paid subscription community by microsoft, whose members gets every MS released products to download with the keys..
Some of them leaks these iso's on the internet, so you get MSDN iso, which is guaranteed to be 100% genuine iso by microsoft itself, though you'll need a valid key to activate it..

gr8, let's see what he says about it..
