    I just reformatted my dell and there must be some drivers, that were not on the disk or online that I missed, is there a way I can tell what they are so I could install the correct drivers for them?

    Thanks!

    the driver cd that came with my e1505 didnt even have the drivers for my system, best way to do it is to go to dells support page, and dowload all the drivers for your hardware first, then burn them to a disk or put them on a usb key or any type of portable starage that works with your system, your missing your chipset drivers, and also theres a good chance a few of the driver diks drivers are out of date, there is also a new system bios that came out a few days ago
