Download Our Windows 7 Tips!

Well my laptop has got to the stage again where it is running so slow I can't stand it any longer. I am about to format my drive and start with a fresh install in XP Pro. Once I have finished backing-up the vital files I need to live a normal life I will stick in the disc and start all over again. I have never managed a fresh install without any hickups so hopefully I will be back online soon, at least this time I have the drivers on a seperate drive so fingers crossed I will be back in in a couple of hours.

Catch you in the flip side... hopefully

Well thats me almost there, well I am online again but still no wireless and a big problem, Now my external HD is not recognised and guess where I put all my drivers??? yes on the external HD. Just running the windows updates just now and going to get the latest drivers from Dell and hopefully after a restart the drive will kick into play.

Best of luck. A fresh install is always so good, when you finally finish, and start for the first time. It's almost like you have a new pc. Hope it goes well for you.
