I have reinstalled windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 on my Inspiron
6000. I did not save anything, so I am starting fresh. I am unable to access
the internet. What is wrong? I can't play videos or cd's because it is
telling me that I have no sound device. I go and check, and it tells me it is
working. I just need to get the internet up and going so I can download any
drivers required. I have a second computer which is my main desktop, and I am
running a wireless device - Wireless-G 2.5 Broadband Router. Your most
sencere help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

After you installed your operating system, you needed to go to Dell's
website for your Inspiron 6000 and download/install all the drivers and
laptop-specific software. Get these files from your other computer and
transfer to your Inspiron.

Using the computer you have that can access the internet, visit
http://support.dell.com/support/dow...temID=INS_PNT_6000&os=WW1&osl=en&catid=&impid
and download the communication and network drivers. Burn the
files to a CD, then copy to your Dell PC and install them.
