    Hi. Thanks for the fascinating video. Do you have one of these upgraded laptops for sale? Best wishes from London

      Hi, thank you! I sold this one a few months ago. I do sell most of the stuff i make videos of though.

      Thanks for the reply. Please let me know if you're selling another Dell latitude d520 - to your upgrade specifications.
      I'd happily buy one from you - ebay? This Dell looks like a cool, retro, portable DVD player and spare laptop.
      Best wishes from London

      Thank you again. I shall keep an eye on your future stock. However, a nice, old Dell Latitude D520 would be a treat - it was my first ever laptop.

    Can i installed windows 10? Will it be stable?
    Or windows 7 the best?

    • @fistbumpbros
      @fistbumpbros  8 месяцев назад +1

      Windows 7 max. W10 might be too much in resource hogging (RAM)

    i have this laptop but now it not working. laptop battery is already dead then onwards i use it through direct plug-in. but now it takes electricity and turn on the laptop when i click on the power button it turn on the leds but nothing showing on laptop display . what is the issue

    • @fistbumpbros
      @fistbumpbros  Месяц назад

      Reading this multiple times and there can be many issues. The display adapter might be turned off in the BIOS. Also, your GPU card might be defective in a worst case scenario. In any case; try to start hitting that F2 or DEL button at startup. If you can get into the BIOS, there's still hope.

      Keep hitting F2 or DEL button. Also, come to think of it. It might be the flex cable going from your screen towards your motherboard. That might be damaged.

    I cant install XP on it, it gets stuck on "Setup is starting Windows". And I checked with DELL official diagnostic utility that everything is fine with my memory and hard drive. But during the installation XP installer cant access the hard disk somehow and freeezes

      Try another disk, or drive to find the problem.

    does your d530 have the intel Graphics Media Accelerator X3100 or does it have the nvidia quadro ?

      Hi, I never got around installing the GPU driver and I sold this laptop not long after making this video. Thus I cannot answer your question, sorry.

      It might, but you need to have a TPM chip installed.
