Hi, having some problems with my M15X. During boot the windows diagnostic screen appears, i have run the programmes several times along with re-spawn and the error meesages appear to indicat a fault with the hard drive and then the tests just hang.
I read some other pages on the Dell forum and follwed some of the answers but still ended with the same issue.
I disconected the internal battery, powered down completely, removed the hard drive and noted the serial number. Now when powering up, the fans run and then the Num, Caps and Scroll keys all flash and i dont have anything on the screen.
I can purchase a replacement drive from Dell and i have the orginal OS and driver disc. Would/could these sovle the problem ? System is 2010 and out of warranty.
Thanks for reading the post.
