Hi. I have a Dell Inspiron E1705 laptop. Works fine.

Two questions.

1. There is a MediaDirect button right next to the words INSPIRON E1705. What I gather is supposed to happen is when I press the MediaDirect button, the software is supposed to come up on the screen. Nothing comes up. I tried to do a search on the hard drive but didn't find anything. So where is my MediaDirect (whatever that is?).

2. The AC Adaptor is hot when I'm running the laptop (watching videos) while it's plugged in. I usually keep it plugged in during the day, The other day I plugged this adaptor into a heavy duty extention cord so I could put the laptop where I wanted to put the laptop.

Then I finished watching the video, I went to tough the square adaptor thing (which says "REPLACEMENT AC ADAPTER PA-10 FAMILY Model No. PA-1900-02D (MADE IN CHINA).

The adaptor was hot. I never noticed anything about adaptors before because there has been no need for me to handle an adaptor. I said to myself "jeez, this thing gets HOT". I then went on google and I'm not the only one who has asked this question. The answer is always the same "The adapter gets hot",. Then they start talking about getting another adaptor and it all goes over my head,.

Oh, on the adaptor is says: Input 100-240V~2.5A 50/60 Hz
Output - 19 5V(some kind of symbol) 4.62A N1650

Don't know what any of this means. But maybe I should not have plugged into into an extension cord??

Thanks to anyone who can answer my questions.
