Actually, I got the links to the drivers from the MS Support fellow helping
me, but I don't remember where they were from. Anyway, I went to Intel and
downloaded the driver but my system crashed. I then went to Dell (I have an
E1405 Inspiron) and downloaded the latest video driver from there--more
system crashes. I saved all the info and copied them to a Dump file the
tech support guy had me create and I'll email them to him along with a
description of my actions.

It seems odd that I can see that my driver isn't up to date, but my computer
crashes whenever I try to install a newer one. Rats!!!

Still no Aero!
