Alright first up I have a Dell Inspiron 700m laptop. It is a very light laptop, good for college students or travelers. Physically the laptop is in really good condition. There are a few problems with it that I'm about to tell you about which all should be easy fixable I just dont have the time.
1. CD drive doesn't work. It detects that a cd is in the drive but whenever you try to access the disc it just says please insert a cd into the drive. I had this exact problem on my new dell laptop and I called support and there was a registry file that I had to change and it fixed the problem, so I'm thinking about after a full restore it will work.
2. Since the cd drive isn't working I wasn't able to do a full restore on it and somehow I accidentally put two copies of XP on the hard drive. But all you need is the cable to connect the hard drive to a different computer with a working cd drive and you should be able to completely reformat it.
3. The speakers do not work, however this is a factory defect as I have seen many reports about it online. However this is also fixable. The problem is the speaker wire run where the lid closes and after constant opening and closing of the laptop lid it splits the speaker wire in half. I have taken it apart and put new speaker wire in it before and it worked fine but it eventually split again.
4. One of the USB ports don't work.
5. Lastly the charger cable bent a little too much and split at the end so you have to hold it just right to get it to charge. However the replacements are pretty cheap online. Here is a charger for $12: Dell Charger

I'm ready to get rid of these because I need the cash. No trades unless you have a pair of 15" Kickers L7s.
