    Hi,

    I just got a Inspiron 1520 and am wanting to do a format and vista clean install. This will be my first time doing anything like this so i'm compiling all the files needed to make this work. I've read other posts that say dl the drivers from the dell site, but do i need to dl and install all of them?

    Can anybody list the drivers I absolutely need to download from the dell support site? and if there other drivers outside of dell support needed?

    my rig:
    t5250 1.5ghz
    8600m gt
    2gb 667mhz
    1280x800
    160gb 5400rm
    intel wifi card ( draft N?)


    your help much appreciated!
