Replacing a broken Dell Inspiron motherboard.

SlackerGirl121

Hi. I have an old Inspiron 1100 with a busted motherboard. I want to replace it with another Inspiron 1100 motherboard so my son can use it for games. I'm in uncharted waters here, but I'm a quick study and good with my hands.

no access to bios or usb keyboards

evilmeeko

My dell e310 won't boot, even to the Bios. It needs a USB mouse and keyboard (it has no PS2 options in back. Problem is the battery was changed, so the bios needs to enter setup to boot to change the time, etc.

This is so strange. My USB external drives(ipod and external hard drives) are not showing up in My computer, therefore I can't access them through My Computer. I see them in Device Manager, and have tried to update drivers to no avail.

Hallo, I often use the saved passwords of my Firefox browser to see and sometimes erase the passwords. . . only everytime I must go to Tools - Options - Safety - saved password. I was arguing if there is a way to insert a link in the toolbar to simplify and speed up this task.
