Please log in for more thread options I don't know about your Dell, but some laptops have a switch triggered by
the screen position. The switch can be configured to shut the laptop off if
the screen is folded down. If yours is set up that way, it will probably
not run at all with the screen folded down. If you can get the thing to
run at all, check the "Power Options" under Control Panel, or wherever your
power options happen to be. It's usually easy to inactivate that option so
that the laptop will be operational open or closed.
