    Hi.

    Included with my notebook was a "Zepto Driver CD 1.0".

    Does anyone know if I'm supposed to run this disc before installing an OS ?

    Thanks.

    Hi.
    That CD includes the Windows drivers for your laptop. You install them after you have installed your Windows 32bit version.

    As far as i'm aware you install your OS and then run the driver CD. Thats how I do it! Assuming your installing windows, i find the best way is to right click on My computer ---> Properties ----> Hardware tab ---> Device Manager. Right click everything with an yellow circle and an explanation mark, then select update driver, dont check the internet, let it automatically install the drivers. That should solve it. Hope everything goes well

    Thanks.

    The main problem I have is installing an OS. I bought my zepto without one.

    I bought a windows XP pro cd from someone and it doesn't let me install properly. (explained here - http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=87992)

    Ahh this is painful, having a laptop you can't use. :confused:

    I suggest you to go to:
    ftp://ftp.zepto.dk

    and download the latest drivers for you laptop.
    For my 6214w it was 215mb

    1st Install OS
    2nd Install all the drivers off the different directories
