is this a studio 1558 from 2010?

i cant find my wireless switch and the computer says that i turned it off.

Any help?

I bought my Studio in June of this year for about $500 with 4GB RAM, 250GB hard drive, and Windows 7. Intel Dual Core T4400 processor @ 2.2Ghz (2010). The design has been a bit modified it seems. There is NO Wi-Fi switch on the side on mine. It’s on the keyboard, just above the number 2, like a regular keyboard button. It’s electronic, not a “physical “switch.

With that said, I love this laptop. The only frustrating thing is the damn adapter cord design. I happened to find this review while searching for alternative/replacement cords on Google lol.

I like having the fake SD card in there since my laptop is in my backpack, and as a college student, who knows what could find its way in there. The backlit keyboard is awesome, even though you really shouldn’t be typing in low-light conditions anyway.But for presentations where the room is dark, it serves a fantastic purpose.

The slot-loading drive is great too: no disc tray to worry about breaking or applying too much pressure on. The built-in webcam is acceptable quality, and recording is clear. The sound quality from the speakers is phenomenal compared to other laptops. Mine uses IDT-High Definition Audio drivers.

Any help?

i wish dell took the build of the studio a bit more seriously. i would have readily spent a few more bucks to get a sturdy machine.
well…not gr8 but manageable!!

I were correct, and you Konto is not discounted from any of my expectations from this review.

You can read up a “more educated” reviews, please do. But bear in mind that what you read is what they want you to read. I on the other hand can’t be bothered if you like to read what I wrote or not. I write what I feel about the laptop.

And besides, Konto why are you reading up reviews on your own Studio 15 while you’ve already own one yourself? This begs the question, do you have doubts on your laptop? Do you honestly think your Studio 15 is a perfect laptop for yourself?

Please bear in mind that there is no doubt tonnes of upgrades compared to the previous laptops in this Studio 15, but as I have stated in the 2nd paragraph, this review is nothing about Studio 15′s specifications :)

2. A nice thick hinge is now placed at the back for a stable non-wobbly monitor

3. comes in an array of beautiful designs & colors.

4. two Wifi buttons > the switch to completely disable the card and another to quickly catch WIFI… it can also be used to see if you have wifi available before you even power on the laptop (by flashing when you press it while off.)

5. Touch sensitive , light up when pressed Media keys.

6. easy access optical disk drive.. placed on the right as most people are right handed, nobody uses a mouse jammed so close to your laptop that you cant get to the disk drive… Its so easy to bloody move a mouse anyway (ugh! easier than putting it in on the left hand-side.).

7. many other pros… vga-out ports High-definition HDMI PORT, 4x usb + 1x powered usb, firewire, IR remote sensor, as well as many extras webcam-integrated, bluetooth etc….

8. Only downer is its preinstalled with Vista and lacked functionality for a while on XP, But people have successfully downgraded it with new drivers dell released recently resolving that issue, but thats not to say everybody downgrades if there on a laptop…

I would suggest people read up on a more educated review for a full list over its assets and flaws.

Whenever you go to my computer and click the DVDRW (if there’s a disc inserted) it automatically spits the disc out and tell you to insert disc.

I think Dell should look into this.
