If I was you, I'd give that Dell lappy away and build my own, or at least do some research and find out who the REAL manufacturer is... and go from there.
Put another way, it sounds like you got a lemon on your hands. If it was me, I'd cut n' run...

What do you think of Alienware? My IT friend used to like them, but they got eaten by Dell a few years ago. I think he has a Gateway or Compaq (HP) from Best Buy, which I thought he would NEVER do in my lifetime.
