Unable to Shutdown or Hibernate Inspiron 15 5558

Win 8.1

When I try to shut down the system using Windows Shutdown , the system returns to the windows login screen. I do not use the hard power switch as it has always caused improper shutdown.

The system can sleep, but not shutdown or hibernate. This just occurred in the last week. A pop showing "Airplane Mode is On/off" in the Windows login screen and will toggle each time I try to shut down. I have tried shut off the laptop wifi, but this made no difference.  There are two Event 1001, which I can post details if needed.  These did not occur after all the no-shutdowns, just the latest.

Hello.

In 2012 I bought a DELL XPS 8500 configuration and Cyberlink PowerDVD software together with it. However I cannot find any license key for PowerDVD written anywhere on paper or in the electronic order that I have. I have the software installed and I think I can get it through Dell Digital Delivery but is there really not license key to identify my ownership of this software?

Thank you in advance.

Windows 8 Product Key

Hi! I have Dell Inspiron 3521 which was given to me by my sister. It has Windows 8 installed originally, then I upgraded it into 8.1. I used it for over a year since she gave me but then, it's original hard disk died. It was stuck for a year when I finally decided to buy a new hard disk but sadly, the hard disk didn't have an operating system. Now, I want to download Windows 8 from Microsoft and I'm aware that they'll ask for a product key. My question is, can I use the product key that came with this and where can I find it? Thanks!


"An operating system was not found" error while trying to reinstall windows

Hi everyone,

I had windows 10 installed on my Dell Inspiron 7720 laptop for around a year. I wanted to roll back to windows 8.1, so i downloaded the usb media from microsoft website.I booted from the pen drive and formatted all the drives. After that I proceeded to install windows 8.1. When the setup had just started copying files, my laptop shut down due to low battery. Now when i am trying to boot from usb or dvd, i am getting an error saying "An operating system was not found. Try disconnecting any drives that don't contain an operating system. Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to resart".

Also, when I am trying to change the boot order or to load default settings in bios, I am getting an error - "FORMSET 98FBBCFB-1392-4FDE-ABB8-C41CC5AD7D6D

Failed to save storage: Boot_mem-Boot_ITEMS. Status Access Denied"

Someone suggested me to reset the bios by reseating the CMOS Battery. Did that but still getting same error. I have run out of idea now, and desperately need help. If someone has any suggestion, please help me out.

Thanks,

Ravi Kaurav

I recently got a dell latitude 10 st2e from a friend and wanted to reset it. I did and then all the drivers were gone as expected, but when i went to get them from the dell website. the drivers would work. for example the intel drivers on the dell website started a boot loop, i got in to the main desktop and it instantly shut down everytime until i reset it again. so dell im asking for a request to fix all the drivers or give me older drivers that work. thank you
