Hello, i have a Dell Inspiron 1501. I can't seem to do anything on it. I can't connect to the internet and i have a wired connection. I just bought the laptop hoping it would work but the above problem is wrong with it. The dependency service or group failed to start. Is there anything i can do to fix this laptop?
The best thing what you can do is you can do A Inplace upgrade if you are using Vista & windows 7 & repair for XP of start -cmd in search box & right click on CMD & click on Run as Administartor , you will get command prompt screen, type sfc /scannow, make sure the OS disc is inserted when you do this
insert the operating system disc, turn off the pc, turn it back on & keep tapping on f12 when you see the dell logo, select onboARD CD/DVD ROM or your cd drive in boot menu, then it says windows is loading files, then click on install now & select upgrade, this wont delete the files on your pc.this process is called inplace upgrade
Okay, thank you for that bit of information. Since I do not have an Operating System Disc could you tell me where I might find one? Thank you for your help and your time.
