From: Teleman on 20 Jun 2005 14:15 Potted history: Bought (on behalf a friend) an old Dell Optiplex GX110 800 MGHZ on Ebay No drivers included in sale, so i though "no problem - get them from Dell" Got them with no problems !! So far so good - the XP install went like a dream Then i transfered the file i downloaded (R45973.exe) over to Optiplex and followed the instructions to the letter (leaving all the defaults set) Got the familiar "Installshield Wizard" and hit "next" THEN i got a "Severe" error message "driver not fornd! reboot your system and run this setup again" Why should i get a "driver not found" message when i am trying to install driver !!! TIA for any info Teleman --

It's an audio driver, correct? I'm curious, didn't WinXP install the audio driver natively? (Any bangs/splats in device manager?). I'd be a bit surprised if XP didn't have *all* of the necessary drivers for that age machine.... Stew

Or why? Your subject line "Silent Optiplex" - , does this mean you have no sound on the system? ( You can call me 'Captain Obvious' if so.) Stew
