I have 2 LG 32" monitors that only have HDMI ports. My new XPS 17 9730 has no HDMI ports.

Hi, On my old laptop which had a dedicated in-built numpad, I could use the alt key and the numpad to type special characters such ñ (alt + 164), ¿ (alt + 168) and so on. How do I accomplish this on an XPS with no in-built numpad ? Thanks.

How can the battery be at 0% on the left but nearly full in the chart? I was watching a film on VLC player before bed last night, on an external monitor attached to the USB-C port on my XPS 9510. The monitor was also providing passthrough charging and acting as a hub for my keyboard and mo

I recently decided to clean up my Dell XPS 17 L701X since the fan was running constantly regardless of what I was doing. I figured it was from dust collection over the years since the computer was running fine with no spikes or large CPU or memory usage, so I opened her up and confirmed my theory. I

The only way I know how to backup a laptop is to use the restore/backup image functionality from Windows 7. I know that this is an antiquated method. Can you point me to some articles/discussions on what methods are recommended for full disk image backup?
