    I have tried to enable my fingerprint sensor, but I am instructed to place my finger on the fingerprint sensor without telling me if the image on the screen is the sensor or the camera. Neither works and nothing more is explained,

    Dell Inspiron 15 5000 series laptop- the audio software with welcome, closing and other audio sounds does not work.

    Since I purchased my Windows 10 Dell Inspiron 15 5000 Series laptop, the Windows audio system doesn't work well. No Windows welcome or closing music, etc.

    * Original title: Hi have a Dell Inspiron 15 5000 series laptop purchased May 2017, the audio software with welcome, closing and other audio sounds does not work. Any suggestions?

    BIOS update on Dell Inspiron 15 5000 Series

    I have a new Dell laptop, Inspiron 15 5000 Series. I received a message today that there was Dell update for BIOS, so I updated it.

    When it rebooted, I received a message couldn't reboot. The only way to reboot was to go in and change the way to boot up. After I did that it rebooted but now I can't log on with face recognition, can't turn camera on. This is the second time this has
    happened and both times was after BIOS update.

    No audio on Dell Inspiron 15 5567

    The procedure that came with my new Dell Inspiron 15 5000 series (same series as yours) was to backup using a USB flash drive, not discs. It also instructed to check (boot) the flash drive to verify it was OK. I have that, plus I went an extra step and did a full drive (it has an SSD) drive image (all partitions) with Macrium Reflect backup software to a separate drive.

    But regardless of where the Windows 10 OS came from, the Win 10 installation and installation of needed DELL drivers should have got you going. The Dell supplied drivers in some cases are custom modified drivers and not the same as the "retail" (generic) driver versions from other sources.
