    Hey everyone,
    So i have had my m1530 for a week now. There are some things that are wrong with it that i have contacted dell about, they are
    -lcd backlight bleed (they want to send a new screen to me, its a new laptop, it should have a good screen already)
    -Loud HDD. They said its loud due to static buildup. I did what they said and took out the HDD and it did nothing.
    -Popping sounds in the audio. I havent brought this up on the fourms or to dell but im pretty sure most people are having the same problem.
    -Im not sure if this is normal, so you tell me. When i am running it on battery power, i am unable to really run games without lots of lag. Even when i put it into high performance mode. Normal?

    Well anyways since i have had it a week and am still 14 days away from 21 days, should i tell them to send me a new one? I already tried it but they told me they were having "technical" problems after a hour on the phone, so i wasent able to do anything...Thanks Dell! :D
