After you
install XP, don't forget to install Dell's hardware drivers for the
desktop. Don't use the Dell Resource CD from the laptop!
If you have lost your Dell Resource CD for the desktop, go to Dell's
tech support site for your specific model machine and download drivers
ahead of time.
Malke, Could you please explain your comment "Don't use the Dell
Resource CD from the Laptop"? Not sure I follow that, given the
next paragraph.
I need to install drivers for a Dell Inspriron system, and was about
to do that via their Dell Resource CD. Is there a problem with that?
The Dell Resource CD has drivers and some utilities for a specific range
of computer models. I was cautioning you to either use the correct
Resource CD for the computer you were working on OR to get the right
drivers from Dell's website. Obviously, drivers for a laptop system are
not going to be the ones you need on a desktop machine.
