    You can sign up for an account on Dell's website and download drivers there. They supply drivers which are already loaded onto their PCs, so you should be able to find what you're looking for there.

    No problem. It's a good site. I use it every time I format my hard drive.

    support.dell.com

    Choose drivers and downloads >> then service tag (middle) and input the 8 digit alphanumerical service tag located on your case on a sticker marked dell. That'll bring up all the drivers for your system.

    Is it bad I knew that without going to the site? I bet Dell misses my superior tech skills now :p

    ...On a side note, I'm glad I quit, because Dell just canceled their new Ottawa site (500 lost jobs) and laid off 1200 people across Ottawa, Edmonton and Texas. I'd strongly suggest not buying Dell products in the future because:
    1 - They're very shady about their business with consumers
    2 - They're all about money and they could care less about their employees, leading to poor service
    and finally 3 - They just outsourced a LOT of their business to Manilla.

    You actually don't have to input your service tag unless you need something really specific. At least, I've never had to. I could be wrong, though.

    But you're right, I hate my Dell. If I could, I'd just sell all the parts for money. :lol:

    Using the service tag takes your to a list of specific drivers for your system.

    I believe that's it yes..

    Man, I don't see how someone could get so much malware on their system. I had to format the entire thing, and they lost their damn XP recovery disk.. haha
