QUOTE(lclun @ May 12 2007, 08:38 PM) How many drivers do I need to reinstall if I do a reformat? You are reinstalling what windows? Windows Vista or XP?For Vista, you don't need to reinstall any drivers. All dell 6400 drivers are available in the Windows Vista installation. You just need to update the drivers if you want to. Added on May 12, 2007, 9:21 pm     Logitech Alto keyboard and laptop stand QUOTE The keyboard plugs in via USB and the cable is neatly recessed under the stand when it's folded away. There are also three additional USB ports on the stand - two at the rear and one on the right-hand side at the back - so you can plug in a mouse and other peripherals. But this isn't a docking station as such, so other cables and add-ons will need to connect to the laptop as usual. Check this out people. New product.

I could be the video codec's problem. What video player do you use? Try using VLC Player. |

Actually ur lappy HD capability not depends ur hardware.Becuz most of computer can do that,it depends ur physicall spec.JUz like ur display size..speaker..etc.Or maybe only the hardware is graphics card and sound card.But physicall fact is more important.for info, the specs for my Dell are Intel Core 2 duo t5300 2gb ddr2 sdram 120gb hdd so u think it's enough for true HD playback? wuts the minimum requirement anyway? coz thinking of collecting HD dvds now...
