after looking thru the net i found this site

i downloaded the inpiron 8200 driver
i dont know hw to use it?
please help
go to the pc or motherboard makers site and look for bios upgrades and instructions on how to upgrade but first enter bios setup probably Delk key on boot up and reset bios to defaults there can not be much wrong if you can boot to safe mode
i just phoned my cousin…he is a software enginneer…
he reckons it has nothing to do with bios
he said it probebly to do with windowsblind software i installed yesterday…
i already had astonshell…tried to change the windows explorer sheel using windows blind
when i installed it yetrday the setup failed etc…i only restared the comp[uter today
so it has to be tht ~ Lovely ~ windows blind
now i uninstalled it
but shill dont restart it probebly fuke*ed up my windows folder
i am thinking about reinstalling everything
erm i imp thing
in this computed i upgraded my ram and graphics card few months back
i had to install those drivers? from the cd i got from it…
do i have to do that again(i have no idea were those bloody cds are)
i dont understadn how drivers work
edit: sh*t double post…sorry
Take it to the service at your PC shop and they should be able to solve the problem.
ID your hardware and just D/L the latest drivers
do i have to do that again(i have no idea were those bloody cds are)
i dont understadn how drivers work
Yes you will have to update drivers again drivers are the software connection between windows and the hardware, so windiws knows what the hw is and how to talk to it as said above down load the latest from the grafx card makers site
I reinstalled it
i am guessing it was windowsblind fu*in it up
i had 5 patrition…i had just windows in C:\
all other patritions were FAT32
i just deleted everything in C:\ and installed win xp i too from the app section
it works fine now…
i backed up eveyhtng file i needed from c:\
so its fine now
thank you all fro your help
