My girlfriend got a dell inspirion mini 10 for christmas and we've been using it's webcam and if she doesn't have the power cable in the computer it runs fine, but when she plugs the power cable into the computer it after a while, freezes and shuts down automatically, what would cause the computer to shut down under those conditions? Webcam, and plugged into wall (With out webcam it runs everything else fine while plugged up) Before it shuts down, the webcams get slow and laggy, and we start to break up, then it shuts down skype and turns off.

I connected my DELL MINI Inspirion 10 via HDMI to LCD TV. have a good pic, but haven any sound (can play movie, but nothing voice). Check everything, no find problem. Can u help me?

Hi
HDMI is only used for Video output and not for sound, you will have to use your laptop audio out (has a pic of headphones), you are able to get headphone jack to phono (white / Red) cable to connect to TV or surround sound system or your laptop speakers.
