Dell Inspiron 13 7373. P83G Fix

My Dell PC would not start. The fix is a hard reset. Which means removing the PSU. Opening the case. Powering down for 20 seconds by pressing the power on. Removing the battery and replacing it. Symptom: The battery appears drained. Plugging in PSU, then pressing ON switch the keys backlight for 1 second then it's dead again. Fix: is to do a 'hard reset'.

Get your safety gear, which means earth your body with a wrist attachment. At the very least replace any nylon clothing you're wearing with cotton. If you use reading glasses make sure you have them at hand. Remove 10 screws at the rear. The single screw in the center is slightly different to the other 9 screws around the edges. The center screw was hidden under a sticker which reads "WARRANTY VOID IF TAMPERED WITH OR REMOVED". There are no screws under the plastic 'feet'. Use thin piece of card or plasic to slowly lever out the back case. I used an old thin card train ticket did it for me. I began this at the back right (near the power button). A guitar plectrum also works but a credit card is too thick. Work along the back first, then the sides. Drain the power by holding the power button down for 15 to 20 seconds. Unscrew the battery. Unscrew 4 screws holding the battery in place, which is labelled "Type F62G0 11.4V" The fix did not work.

Dell Inspiron 13 7000 P83G Will Not Wake After Sleep

I have a model laptop listed about. I have tried the most recent BIOS update, defaulting the BIOS settings, Checking all the power settings, Installing the newest update of Intel Management Interface Engine, Disabling the Intel Management Interface, and disabling Fast Startup in settings. Turned on Wake from USB, and disabled USB Selective Sleep settings. The PC still will not wake up after entering sleep mode and must be forced shutdown and turned back on.
