4gb ram, 1 gb GeForce GT 525m
the problems i am facing are elaborated below
1st : my wireless adapter is going crazy, it automatically loose the network and then i have to disable the connection and enable it again to work. i am using windows 7 ultimate.
2nd : when i play a movie it stucks and then play, seems like graphics problems i think... i am not sure but there are two drives installed one for intel hd graphics and one for the geforce, might it be the reason the display stucks for seconds and resumes back.
3rd: i installed all the softwares but the bluetooth is not working. the yellow sign is displaying in the device manager

The installation was not done correctly. It MUST be done as:
Windows
Then Dell notebook system software
Then chipset driver.
Then reboot and load all the other drivers.
For details, see

I was having the same problem with my wireless when running on the battery. I set my power settings to high perfomance and the wifi now works great when on battery only. Hope this helps.

Is the copy of Windows on the system a factory install, or was Windows installed or reinstalled manually after the system was received?

its not factory installed , the dealer installed it and then went to website and downloaded all the drivers, from day one my bluetooth was giving the yellow sign under the driver in device manager, the wireless was working fine for some days but now its giving a hard time, enabling and disabling wont work now, i have to restart the system to make it work now. any suggestions... i have windows defender updated and also avast antivirus, and all the updates from microsoft are installed

It would have been unusual for a budget model like the 5110 - particularly with a low-end CPU and video chip - to have come with Windows Ultimate. Did you order it that way from Dell?

Now you have me wondering, how do you know if it's factory installed or not?

It is only possible suggestion, I have very similar problem, re installed all windows 2 times, first time just installing drivers, second time, did exactly as was written on drivers installing manual. Problems still occurs. Thanks for answer, but it may be not only problem.
Best regards, Aurimas
