    I've moved this to software since this is more of an XP problem than Dell. As far as the media keys, you shouldn't have to do anything. I assume you'll be using the standard drivers, and BIOS. The keys don't have a driver but I think they are tied into the BIOS somehow.

    On the blue screen, does it tell you what is causing the critical error?

    It standard error,it say that i need check hdd, drivers,nothing which could help :/

    error code if that helps
    STOP: 0x0000007E (0xC0000005,0xF854A0BF,0xF8996208,0xF8995F08)
    pci.sys - Address F854A0BF base at F8543000, DateStamp 3b7d8555c

    edit:i think now that it's service pack error, windows xp sp1 dosent recognise sata, english version sp1 also :/

    that's sucks. I wish I knew what to tell you but I don't have much experience with non-english versions.

    Can you possibly get SP2 version disc?
