M1730, can someone check a service tag for me, seems a bit odd.

Normally when ive checked a service tag on the Dell site it lists the original spec that the customer ordered, can anyone tell me why this service tag is listing things like screws, heatsink, covers and various other small items that you don`t normally see listed. Normally a Service tag just gives you the spec, has this been in for numerous repairs ?

This hardly gives any spec apart from the processor.

Service tag: 9KP2R3J

Anyone ? I just want to know whay that service tag isn`t listing the spec but instead is listing a lot of sundries like screws etc

 

i didnt see any screws and heatsink..

it listed this under original system config

XPS M1730 - 2.8GHZ - 64.00GB HD - 4096.0
BASE WARRANTY
3Y XPS SUPPORT
ROAD FREIGHT CHARGE PER UNIT 1-10 UNIT

do you have the order number and customer number?
maybe we can check it using that..

 

This is what i get for that service tag under original system configuration.

That list seems a little short to me.
I get also this short list when use this service tag: 9KP2R3J. Strange indeed.

 

I think they changed it recently, as that's all I get on my tag now...
