    Well after windows xp crashed and refused to boot... i could only boot up in dell media direct :D best thing in the world...if you like poop.

    but i reformatted, installed drivers.. found out my usb drives wernt working,.. and did wat was posted in the following thread

    http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=195834

    but I have an outstanding issue of mics not working, internal ( built in) or line in and I am sure it is a driver issue. I have tryed to reinstall sigmatel driver and tried installing knowles driver ( not sure if it was right)

    could any body shed some light on the problem

    At the time of purchase of my laptop i did not have option of built in bluetooth or webcam and was wondoring if i could buy the parts from dell now? and if it would void my warrenty/be easy to install and will they both work on xp?

    THANK YOU in advance
