Reinstalling Drivers and Utilities: Dell Inspiron 2600 and 2650
NOTICE: Ensure that the computer is disconnected from any USB port
replicator before you reinstall drivers.
Reinstalling Drivers and Utilities
Dell ships your computer to you with required drivers and utilities already
installed—no further installation or configuration is needed.
NOTICE: The Drivers and Utilities CD may contain drivers for operating systems
that are not on your computer. Ensure that you are installing software
appropriate for your operating system.
To reinstall drivers for optional devices such as wireless communications and DVD
drives, you may need the CD and documentation that came with those devices.
NOTICE: The Dell Support website, support.dell.com, and the Drivers and
Utilities CD provide approved drivers for Dell computers. If you install drivers
from other sources, your computer might not work correctly.
1. Save and close any open files, and exit any open programs.
2. Insert the Drivers and Utilities CD.
In most cases, the CD starts running automatically. If it does not, start
Microsoft® Windows® Explorer, click your CD drive directory to display the CD
contents, and then double-click the autocd.exe file. The first time that you run
the CD, it might prompt you to install 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.
