My inspiron n5030 has begun making a terrible creaking sound on the right (more hollow) side. The creaking happens when any pressure is applied to the touchpad all the way to the far right side of the laptop's palmrest itself. It seems to be getting a bit worse as the days go by and has become a bit of a problem. Is there any simple tightening or loosening of screws I can do that may fix it, or will it involve going inside and doing something to shore up that side of the palmrest that doesnt make it so loud that you can hear it all over the house? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
The screws are on the bottom of the laptop that hold the plamrest to the base. Just tighten all the screws on the bottom and see if it helps.
Testimonial: "Thank you for taking the time out of your day to give me some solid advice! I didn't think I had this problem, but you were dead on. There one was screw that was about an 180 degree turn from falling out. I sent the computer in to Dell to have some hardware and other issues fixed under warranty and they probably didn't put the screw all the way back in correctly. Once tightened all the noises were gone. Thanks again! "
There are lots of problems of using wireless LANs in metal buildings, especially if you are trying to go outside the building and into another building. What I have had to do where I work is put an external antenna on the wireless router and use that to transmit the signal beyond the metal shell of the building.

There are lots of problems of using wireless LANs in metal buildings, especially if you are trying to go outside the building and into another building.

If that still does not yeild satisfactory results, you can set up another wireless router in the "home" location with an external antenna to act as a recieving point for the other router in the office ... essentially this is setting up a site to site network. With both routers working together you should resolve the wireless drop out issue.
Bestbuy also sells a Wireless Booster, this works the same way as I explained with using two routers however if you go that route be sure you have the option to either add an antenna or you can place it near a window (glass cuts down on your signal than steel).
If this fails look at replacing the wireless card; this setup will still provide benefical even if you need to replace the card as it will provide stronger signals in stormy weather as well.

i can't hear anything on dell laptop inspiron 1501.plzzzzzzz help me.
SOURCE: My Dell Inspiron E1505's wireless switch is off.
This happened to me using a Dell Inspiron laptop. The wireless switch was disabled and the answer was supposed to use both the blue Fn and regular F2 function key to enable wireless connection. I tried Fn and F2 together and it did not work. I tried just F2 alone and it worked.
