Dell Vostro 5480: Steps of replacing a Swollen Battery

Mon, 02 May 2022 22:32:40 -0700

I have detached the swollen battery but my question do I just put on the new battery or what should I do because I am afraid of the new battery being swollen as well. So my final question is, could there be a way to check why the battery is swollen so I can keep in mind when I am using or is there something wrong inside the motherboard?

Dell Vostro 5415: PC Fails to boot fails loading the BIOS

Tue, 11 Mar 2025 05:57:22 -0700

I have a Dell Vostor 5415 that fails to boot

The PC starts and the Dell logo appears and a in progress circle starts. Then 30 seconds in the the rogress circle freezes and the laptop locks up.

I can get into the BIOS using F2 or select the boot device using f12

I have created a Dell OS recovery tool and booted the laptop with that and ran hardware tests and there are no issues.

On the safe side I swapped out the m.2 ssd and used the recovery tool to reinstall the Dell image. This worked. But when I rebooted the laptop froze again on the Dell logo after 30 seconds.

The BIOS was quite old at 1.11.1 so I used the instructions on the dell website to flash the BIOS ot 1.27.0

This failed but of course did not see the particaular error as it went to quickly

Has anyone any thoughts on the next steps.
