Installing Drivers and Utilities
The Dell ResourceCD for your computer contains most of the drivers that you will need for your computer,
including drivers for operating systems that may not be on your computer. Verify that the driver you are
loading is for your operating system.
To reinstall drivers for optional devices such as wireless communications, DVD drives, and Zip drives, see
the software CD and documentation that came with those devices.
You can also access and download new drivers, system tools, and documentation from Dell's technical
support page at support.dell.com. For more information on using the operating system installed on your
computer by Dell, see the operating system user's guide that came with your computer.
NOTICE: Before you reinstall drivers, make sure that your computer is undocked.
To install a driver or utility from your ResourceCD:
1. Save your work in all open programs.
2. Insert your ResourceCD into the CD or DVD drive.
In most cases, the CD should start running automatically. If it does not, start Microsoft® Windows®
Explorer, click your CD drive directory to display the CD contents, and then click the autorcd
application file. If a welcome screen appears, click Next. The first time that you run the CD, it might
prompt you to install some setup files. Click OK and follow the instructions on the screen to continue.
3. From the Language pull-down menu in the toolbar, select your preferred language for the driver or
utility (if available).
A welcome screen appears.
4. Click Next.
