A 10 year old PC is no longer supported for updates and in almost every case not supported for Win 10 so no need for SA.
I have a 6 year old Dell laptop (7th gen Intel CPU and Win 10 supported)...
To get rid of SA, uninstalling with the Windows uninstaller does not fully remove everything. A program such as Revo Uninstaller Pro or similar is needed (uninstalling with the Windows uninstaller...
What was the fix?
You would have to manually edit registry to remove ALL entries. Even Revo Uninstaller Pro won't remove every program entry.
I work the Dell forums and left over registry entries has never been an...
Part of Support Assist is used in the POST (Power On Self Test). The error codes that are generated if there is an error are generated by Support Assist. You don't want it completely gone. Just...
I have Starkey Livo 2400 hearing aids (less than 2 years old). They are not listed as a Bluetooth device in my iPhone 12. However, when I go to my audiologist for adjustments/updates, I have to...
I have Starkey hearing aids. They pair with my iPhone and they have the "Thrive" app to configure and test. They will not directly pair with our Samsung TV or a PC.
According to that Wikipedia article, ID3 is for MP3 files. Not for standard "Redbook" audio files.
In most cases Win 10 will install needed drivers. Exception is when the hardware device is not Win 10 compatible and in that case there is no driver and the device will not work.
I use Nero BurningROM in my recording studio for standard audio discs. Disk at Once (DAO) must be used to have song titles and artist written to the disc. However, even with the data written to the...
I have an 8720, connected wirelessly, and no problems printing or scanning either in Win 10 22H2 or Win 11 22H2.
My suggestion is to uninstall the printer and all associated drivers and software,...
Average life of the CMOS memory backup battery is 5 years. The XPS 420 is from the 2007 era. If its never been replaced its dead and the BIOS has reverted to default. In this case installing a...
I just upgraded (past Saturday) to an RX6600. I like it. Brighter whites than the old RX5500XT that was dying.
Power requirements for mine are a 650 watt power supply. I have a 750 so was OK.
Dell for years did not have any BIOS recovery at all. If a BIOS was corrupted the only option was to replace the motherboard. I've been on the Dell forums since 2002 and saw all the frustration and...
I've always used PE with Macrium.
I have Win 10 and 11 installation flash drives if I need repair options.
There is a resolved thread about corrupted BIOS update on XPS8930 on the Dell forum
https://www.dell.com/community/XPS-Desktops/XPS-8930-possible-blown-motherboard/td-p/8316170
Did you verify the new battery is good?
One potential cause of BIOS values changing is a defective CMOS backup battery. Usually a CR2032 coin cell battery on the motherboard.
Generally, unless it fixes a problem you have or supports new hardware you are going to install its "optional".
I have a 5577 same 2017 vintage as the 5570.
On the Dell forums, we find it best to manually install a BIOS update rather than through Support Assist. Some later versions of Support Assist will even tell you to install it manually. Installing...
By "aftermarket" I was referring to non-Dell branded. "Aftermarket" in the US commonly refers to non OEM parts.
I've seen complaints from UK customers. (I'm not a Dell employee).
For genuine Dell parts, Parts-People are who we refer to.
I don't know how HP works, but on the Dell forums we see a lot of problems with aftermarket or fake Dell OEM batteries. Most Dell's sense what battery is installed and many won't charge a non-Dell...

Clone can be hit or miss but Macrium is the only program I have used that made a successful clone. However, I do the full disc (all partition) disc image to separate media then restore that to...
