NEW XPS 730x Owner's thread

Chris, We never did get an answer in the old forum about if/when Dell is going to give us a faster BIOS for the XPS 730.  BIOS 1.05 is terribly slow, as I am sure you know.  What news? Eagle Hill

I can answer that question in 4 simple words - don't count on it.  Now that DELL has discontinued the 730 and 730x entirely, they won't be bothered to release a BIOS update for it.

USB is still showing a yellow mark its not working

I cannot locate a driver to work for the media card reader Can anyone help me. I am using Windows7 ulitimate 64 bit

The Vista x64 driver will work fine.

i tried to install the drivers I received a message stating the drivers will only work in Vista, How can I get it to install in windows 7

That's rather odd considering I'm running Windows 7 Professional x64 and I've not had a single issue with using Vista drivers.

XPS 730x, SLI GTX 280, Driver 1.91, Windows 7 Ultimate, Left 4 Dead

When SLI is enabled, Left 4 Dead has serious banding in the sky? When SLI is disabled, the sky looks normal. I have tried all of these settings and it does not fix the issue?

Thanks, will give it a shot.

The 191 driver release is buggy.  Roll back to the 190 release and it may solve your issues.

could someone e-mail me the driver or give me a link to it as I can't seem to get it from the resource cd

Dell has 2 19-in-one Card readers. The newer one works with the driver listed and the older one never worked even with vista and the driver listed. I had to get advanced tech support and try something like 5 drivers to get the older one to work. Sorry but that is what you need to do. Both are called CAB-200 but they don't take the same driver.

Now I can tell you the name of the file. It is called: Dell_multi-device_A00_R152639

If it turns out this is the driver you need and you get it save it to something. Thumb drive,ext drive,anything because when I got it the Adv Tech had me go to a special Dell only server to get it.

Windows 7 does have the driver for the new one..you don't need to go to dell so if you have windows 7 and it doesnt work then you have the older one.

ya I would wait before I play with new nvidia drivers you get buggy ones then you don't

I do alot of folding so I'm extra careful

My SLI bridge was the culprit. Rolled up to the latest Nvidia drivers, still working. Still nothing out except 1.0.5.
