Does any one know any thing about computers?

Post by Juicy J »

I reformated my computer or someshit, any way the harddrive ended up crashing completely the other day... I just booted from the cd and its fixed but my I have no drivers installed... I have no idea on what to do, the main thing is that my monitor is 19 inch and its stuck in 640x480 resolution.. Now I installed the driver for it off dell.com, and it came up on my desktop, it did its thing, but it says to go to display properties, which I did, settings tab, advanced, monitor tab, then under monitor type, it says default... and beside it where dell keeps telling me to go is properties, which it says I need to click there and then click update drivers or something but properties is grayed out and wont let me click on it.. I also noticed that my sound drivers dont work.. What should I do??? Any help and I would be thankful..

but now my computer is running good, no spyware and none of that other bullshit

Good thing I decided to mess around with it cause I was just about to spend 80 bucks on a new hard drive, before it came up fatal system error, computer wouldnt even boot up, Then I reinstalled windows xp and hell its crazy, but whatever works
