Dell Inspiron 11 3000 Manual

I managed to run Terraria and Torchlight 2 on it quite nicely (though the laptop got hot really quick).And I have a bunch of games from GOG waiting to be tried when I have time.It's a little bit sad that I can't run Civ 5 on this though, for Civ 5 with Touch support is really really nice. Though I did not buy the laptop for gaming so no complaint.But the Touch pad.

It's the only thing that keeps me from loving this. It's so bad I still can't get used to it after almost a week.(I know I mention it before, but I can't help =.=, it's so bad I can't double click properly at times). Click to expand.Heh. GoG was the first place I went when I found out I could game on this.

Good timing too cause they put the original fallout game up for free. Now I've got a decent wish list and games in my que. I would like to see more apps and games with decent touch support, but I guess nobody cares about that on Windows. I can always download Android for x86 I supposeAs for the touch pad, it was acting up on me for the first time yesterday and I couldn't even use it.

I normally use a bluetooth mouse but its nice when the touch pad is right there. Since I've turned it on today, I haven't had any problems. You should try sirlamesauce's fix. I'm guessing some were put together in a way the cord was pinched. Though I'm also still running Windows 8 so maybe that has something to do with it. I've discovered a bit more about the trackpad today.

Here's the quick rundown: it was working fine for several hours while I surfed and even played a few simple games. I have noticed that it really does not like moisture at all - even sweaty fingers/hands getting moisture on the pad can cause it to freak out and act erratically. Another, more serious issue I came across today was that the trackpad became erratic and unusable as soon as I plugged in a usb mouse. The usb mouse worked fine, but the trackpad continued to exhibit its erratic behavior even after unplugging the mouse. Even after a reboot, it still was a little wonky.

I shut it down to make dinner, intending to open it up afterward to have another look at the cable. Just for kicks, I turned it on again before surgery and, lo and behold, it was working fine. So I have no idea if this is new or related to the cable inside.

Could others try to reproduce this behavior? If you can reliably cause the issue, does it clear up on its own after a few hours of being shut down completely? Well, that didn't last long. It did feel like a quality unit, but after less than a week of very light use, the Windows Start button came off. This on top of the fact that Windows 8 seems too much to handle the way it is shipped. I can accept some problems, but Dell's customer service is horrible, never had a good experience with any company with customer service in India.

One person even told me that I needed to buy a new keyboard and replace it myself (missed the part of it being new and being a laptop). It seems this race to the bottom has resulted in hardware that can take away from the user experience. Interestingly, Dell just announced they are jumping into the Chromebook market. Click to expand.It's really not. I was about to post a performance tip but since you posted, you have to uninstall McAfee.

It was the first thing I did but after I factory reset my laptop and forgot about it, wow. It uses up so much resources that I can hardly believe it. I was good 90% of the time but then I caught 'Windows maintaince' draining my performance. The tip I was going to mention was turning off the auto update. It seems to have solved any other slowdowns I was getting.

Windows updates other than Windows defender are just bloat anyway.As for the 'race to bottom', like all things I'd blame Microsoft. Think about the price of this notebook and the price of a copy if Windows. It's ridiculous that the OS is about a 3rd of the cost. It's why there are decent android tablets that are $100 less than this.

Though I agree with you, the keyboard shouldn't be falling apart after a week of use. As for customer service, I find communicating via email to be much smoother.

Overall, I understand trying to make computers affordable, but there is the potential that low-end hardware can really take away from the user experience. A lot of the complaints about Windows 8 may not be about the OS, but actually the hardware it's on.

That may be the reason why Apple is so tight on that.Dell offered to replace the unit and extend the warranty for another year, but the thought of potentially dealing with their customer service made me just return the unit outright. The other thing which I really did not like was the screen. It was far too washed out and with a very limited viewing angle. The keyboard may have just been bad luck for me.

I just received two of these. I have to say my initial impression is that they are very solid and compact.

I also purchased two samung 840 evo 120GB SSD's and two 4 GB memory sticks (cas 9-9-9-28 instead of the included 11-11-11-28). After installing the SSD's and memory I am extremely pleased with these machines. The are intended as xmas presents for my younger kids to use for school work, but should suffice for general use as well.Fingers crossed that the keyboards will withstand the abuse of two early teens.

Click to expand.I bought this computer because I was using my HTC One with 2 gb of ram and a 1.7 ghz quad core and decided that was plenty of processing power for a notebook to run on. With a little knowledge, a low end computer can run just as efficient as a high end computer so I'm glad Dell makes machines like this. And Windows 8 uses less resources than Windows 7 so any complaints about Windows 8 were caused by Windows 8. Anyone who doesn't understand that a their $300 Windows 8 computer/tablet might need a little more tweaking than their $600 Windows 7 computer and then blame Windows 8 would have to be a complete idiot.

The only reason Apple is tight on their hardware is because they want complete control over their 'ecosystem'. Its not like they release sub $1000 pc's; their software runs so well because all their computers have i7 processors and solid state hard drives.

Click to expand.I considered the same. I was having a hard time getting a decent amount of contrast so I spent a while playing with the brightness, gamma, and contrast. But then I realized I was just viewing it at way too steep an angle. Its still not perfect, but I won't find a small notebook with a screen to match my HTC One without buying an expensive Ultrabook so I just forced myself to get used to it. I plan on using 3rd party Windows 8 themes to make up the difference cause dark grays and blacks look fine. I bought this laptop on Black Friday and have been following this thread for a while. Anyway, just wanted to say that I love this little guy!I upgraded the 500GB 5400PRM stock hard drive to a Samsung 250GB 840 EVO and the RAM to 4GB's of Crucial RAM (Plus I got a free 16GB Flash Drive when I ordered because of some promotion, woot, woot!) and so far it's been awesome!Just a heads up though, if you're having touchpad issues, use Dell's online chat to talk with tech support and get them to send out a tech to your house so they can replace the palm rest assembly.
