    i reformated my e1505 and they won't let me install the graphic drivers. i tried the newest one and the one posted at dell but they keep saying " this application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect." Is there any fix? same happens when i install the newest chipset

    First, what OS are you using?
    Second, did you follow the install guide that's posted here? (Either the Vista or the XP one.)

    I'm guessing you didn't follow the guide, and you haven't installed all of the necessary drivers.

    What GPU do you have and what driver are you trying to install? Have you tried Omega Drivers?
