    *** UPDATE ***

    Get it at http://files.fredfx.com/Dell Studio XPS 1645/

    Anyone know where I can get this? It's not on the Dell support site, and for some reason I can't continue past Dell SmartSource after a certain step.

    Call Dell to get it shipped out to you...
    But you'll only get it if it was on your original order.. ;)

    I've got (4) different listings for the Facial Recognition. Some look like newer versions of the same thing, but the release dates don't indicate that.

    I wish I could help, had a ton of trouble through that Dell SmartSource site, tried like every web browser. I got through eventually but don't remember how exactly. I think I ended up needing to add it as a Trusted Site in IE and setting security level very low, or something.

    Ultimately I ended up uninstalling the face recognition software again because it was installing some buggy authentication provider that crashes Outlook.

    I hate that crappy software anyway, but I digress.

    Just call Dell and they'll send you a software cd.

    Thanks. Not sure if I will use this when I do my fresh install, but it's good to know in case I decide to.
