No it won't have any Dell drivers for windows 10. It is an XP computer originally. Save the cost of upgrading and having problems with hardware drivers--wait to get a new computer.

I got a Latitude E5510 running Windows 10 64 Bit without an issue. The E6510 should also run Windows 10 64 Bit without any issues. All the drivers are inbuilt or automatically obtained via Windows Update.

Hallo Dr Yip, @Philip_Yip

i was reading some geeky stuff from you here in this forum so i decided to register just for this one issue.

i installed everything properly on a used latitude e6510, i5 1. gen. (got a new dell battery as well)

first steps:

1.) changing of thermal conductance paste (temperature drop from 78°C to 65°C while watching youtube @720p)

2.) installed a 256 GB Samsung SSD

3.) put up windows 10 pro 1809

4.) updated driver like USH (for sim card slot)

5.) updated bios to a17

now i have the problem that my laptop does not shut down properly. just the power lamp is on and the fan goes on here and then. drive and everything else is off. even if i press the power on button 5 sek to kill him he does not show any "wrong shut down progress" when turning on again (does not know how the exact sentence is because i am using german language win 10).

edit: event logger shows exit windows properly.

what else i can do. this cant be true that this is the only thing not working.

My cousin now has my old E5510 but it is still working pretty well. There is no shut down issue on it. Try to Update the Intel Management Engine Interface Driver from Intel: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/28083/Intel-Management-Engine-Driver-for-Windows-7-8-1-and-Windows-10

Try it anyway, if it doesn't install I'll look for a different version.

I've got a Latitude E6510 with V1903 of Windows 10 64-bit - and the touchpad does not work at all.

I've installed the latest driver from Dell's site: 7.1208.101.124. My BIOS and all my other drivers are at the latest version and everything else seems to be working fine.

Are you on the same build? Is your touchpad working fine? If so, what version of the driver are you using?

 

Thanks!

Picked  up a used e6510 with 4Gb RAm and 160Gb (!!!) HDD. BIOS was A17 in LEGACY mode (!!!). Win 10 1903.

Installed 8Gb RAM and 512Gb SSD (GPT not MBR). Switched BIOS to UEFI, Reinstalled Win 10 1903. Seems to be OK; I've not checked all peripherals but the touchpad works fine (FYI).

I noticed that Power off also appears to hang. Annoying but not a bigee, holding down the power button for a few seconds appears to kill the power.

I did notice that the latest release of Win 10 1903 (October 2019?) will NOT install (I've experienced this with another laptops, ASUS, maybe a little younger than the Dell). The install runs practically to completion (98-99% installed) then it fails, and the System does a roll-back. I now have my laptops set to NOT accept updates since it's just wasting Internet bandwidth.

Any ideas?

Philip,

I have Latitude E5510 currently running windows 7 pro 32 bit, 4gb RAM i3  intle 2.7 ghz and want to upgrade to windows 10 to avoid buying new  I use laptop for surfing net primarily.  I've tried several times, but download shuts down after loading files phase, computer and gives error 0xc1900101 – 0x20017 The installation failed in the safe_os phase with an error during apply_image operation.  I've googled for solutions but none seem to work....drivers are up to date, disabled wireless and bluetooth, disabled anti virus, upgraded bios to a16, ran Dell Command Update...no updates found.  The next troubleshoot is to disable graphics cards.  But before I do that, I wanted to see if you experienced any issues when you upgraded your E5510.  Any advice/tips you can offer are appreciated.

 

Thanks, Jim

Actually windows 7, 8.1 and 10 are recompiles of the same kernel. same revision numbers in fact. you can use the windows 7 drivers, extract only, and install the drivers manually. I'm running windows 10 64 bit and I got everything working using the windows 7 drivers. From windows 7 onward, Microsoft started treating windows like a linux kernel.
