This guide explains how to install internal Bluetooth module into a Dell Inspiron 6400 or E1505 laptop.
It turns out, that even if you didn’t order Bluetooth in the Build-To-Order configuration, you can add it after the fact.
The Bluetooth module compartment is located under the battery.
1. Remove the battery.
2. Remove the Bluetooth compartment cover.
3. Carefully pull the cable and connect the Bluetooth module.
4. Close the Bluetooth compartment and install the battery.
You can purchase a new Bluetooth module for your Dell Inspiron 6400/E1505 laptop here for less then $25.
Most likely you have XP or Vista OS installed on your laptop, it should install the drivers automatically. Now your laptop is Bluetooth-ready.
In one of the following guides I explain how to disassemble Dell Inspiron E1505/6400 laptop in order to remove and replace the cooling fan.

AuF,
You should use PC2-4200/5300 DDR2 SDRAM SODIMMs (or faster RAMs).
Your laptop will take up to 2GB total and it has 2 sockets.
You can install up to 1GB RAM module into each socket.
Dell Vostro 1700 uses PC2-5300 DDR2 SDRAM SODIMMs and they should work just fine in your Dell Inspiron 6400 unless they are 2GB modules. As I mentioned above you can install up to 1GB into each slot in your Inspiron 6400.
