Please try to reinstall the driver software on your Dell 1250C. It might be corrupted or not yet installed. Use the software CD to install the software or you can download it online from the Dell website. Here are the links to the download pages.

You should also consider checking all the cables and other connections based on the user's manual. Here's the link:
