Precision 7530 & Precision 7730 owner's thread

Hi, this is totally unrelated, but I have no other way to contact with you. Can you please share your display profile, the one you talked about here:

"If you get one with an AUO B173HTN01.1 screen and need a color calibration profile let me know; I made one with dispcal and an X-Rite i1DisplayPro. The screen is really 'cool' by default but after correction looks much better than your average TN. "

Thanks.

Note: The one linked at notebookcheck are not meant for this display, as they make whole screen yellow and dull instead of punchy colors. I hope you can find yours and link me here.

 

The following page contains multiple audio players:

Can you clearly hear the voice on the second one (with "CR2..." title)?

 

Yes i can hear it, Its really bassy, do you mean the male voice?

 

Yes, this happens to me intermittently. I believe it to be a software issue with the MaxxAudio enhancements. There's also complaints about high DPC latency, all of which are part of a larger audio issue across many Dell laptops. They seem to be aware of it but there's no ETA on a fix.

 

Yes, the male voice. Sorry but I forgot to mention the most important part: in my case, the sound is distorted/scrambled when I use Microsoft Edge, and internal speakers or WD15 dock USB audio.

PS: second sound is mono whereas first one is stereo. Mono never works.

 

I installed Windows 10 on USB drive in order to run it without any Dell drivers, and let Windows Update to do its job. It successfully installed all devices drivers except NVIDIA - Display (which failed with error 0x800703e3 "The I/O operation has been aborted because of either a thread exit or an application request.").

The sound had latency, but mono worked.

I installed NVIDIA Quadro display driver from Dell website, and mono didn't work anymore.

For the record, Waves MaxxAudio component is identified as the following:
Waves Audio Effects Components
APO\VEN_WAVES&AID_MA75MV45
SWD\DRIVERENUM\WAVESAPO&5&1562004D&0

 

I tried it again now on Edge and have no problems hearing the second the one named CR2 something

 

Question for the group. I've never had a quadro before and I'm not sure how I manage which GPU is being used for a given game/application. I know on the geforce cards you can do it through geforce experience I believe, and I knew how to manage it through the amd software for the firepro in my 7710, but I'm left unsure with this computer.

 

The nVidia Control Panel has a detailed list where you can control display options, and which GPU runs which program:

 

Also, in the control panel as @Ionising_Radiation mentioned, there is an option in the menu at the top "Desktop -> Display GPU Activity Icon..."
Selecting this will put an icon in the system tray (near the clock) that will show you the status of the NVIDIA GPU (colored = on, gray = off), and if you click it, you will see which programs are using the NVIDIA GPU. This is a decent way to tell if your settings are working as you expect.

I normally set the system to default to the Intel integrated GPU under "Global settings" and then whitelist specific apps/games that I want to use the NVIDIA GPU under "Program settings". But it usually does a pretty good job deciding if you just leave everything at default.
