    So, due to a problem i'm sorting out at the moment, I can't use my IE9 to download drivers through that.

    What other methods could I use?

    The specific one I need is the IDT driver, in hopes I can fix the hdmi In sound from not working.

    Thanks.

    Oh, I guess they updated their site. I used to be able to only download with Internet Explorer a few months ago.

    Thanks Slick

    You need IE if you're downloading via Dell's download manager but if you download each driver normally, it works with every internet browser.
