Hello everyone.

At one time I reformated my computer & put vista on it. I did a clean install. I then found the drivers that were for vista on the dell website. Well i had to reformat my computer again, and then the drivers were gone. Does anyone know where to get these?

this is my main concern...

Sony 48x32 CD-RW
that is my cd rom. Thanks!

None: Vista may not require drivers. When I searched for drivers on that particular Sony CDRW, DELL only had WinXP drivers.

I have done that, but it says the current driver is the most up-to-date, but how can that be when that driver date is 6/21/06...at one time there was vista, on the dell website when I put in my service tag #, and now there is not. Also my cd-rom is kindof crazy. Sometimes it will read, and sometimes it wont. It is showing up under My computer, and the light blinks whenever i put it in, it's trying to read it, but it says Nothing is in the drive when I click on it.

Any suggestions will be great.

also. before i reformated, i saved the sound driver I had downloaded previously, if I did not do that, I wouldnt have sound either.
