  1. Windows 11 Power Issues on my old Dell Laptop


    My Laptop doesn't wake up from sleep. It was working fine and then it wasn't! The dell original power manager stopped working. It said it was incompatible. I have read everything there is to know on Power and Battery! I rest all the setting. I set sleep to never. And it still goes to sleep. My guess is Windows 11 power manager is overriding. There is no Power Diagnostics any more. So old command line answers don't work. I am afraid to install Dell's bios driver! It could kill my laptop!Please help! Thank you

    :)

    Windows 11 upgrade eligiblity for Alienware Dell laptop

    I have a 3-year-old Alienware 13 R3 Dell laptop that "doesn't currently meet the minimum system requirements to run Windows 11". I've checked the requirements and my current setup seems to meet them all. I rang Dell to check if they could tell me what I could upgrade on my specification and they told me it's not that my laptop doesn't meet the minimum technical requirements, it's simply that Microsoft has not listed this model as being eligible for Windows 11. Are the eligibility lists likely to be reviewed?

    Dell laptop not sleeping - what is DHCPv6ReSolicit activator?

    I am having problems with my Dell laptop not sleeping. It is running Windows 11 22000.466. I ran SleepStudy a few times recently and a top offender is DHCPv6ReSolicit. I tried googling this term and it brings back near zero results. Any suggestions where to go from here?

    Of course I have tried all of the standard steps:

    • Run Windows Update
    • Check for updates from Dell
    • Run the Windows Power Troubleshooter
    I would be happy to share more information, just let me know what else would be helpful.

    Windows 11 Power Issues on my old Dell Laptop

    Laptop battery issue

    Hey everyone! I have an old dell laptop with a pentium 2 and 64MB of ram. Real powerful(lol). It is running 98. The old battery had died and purchased a generic replacement supposedly for that model. The numbers match and all. The problem is the notebook will not recognize the battery. Any suggestions appreciated. Thanks. It is just for notes and stuff.
