when I tried to install the driver it says either that there s file

or tow is missing or corrupted or the system already has newer

PS: I unstalled the driver from the device manger and re install it from

dell web site but it didn't worked.

Are you sure you have Intel video?  The system was also built with one of a couple of ATI cards - and one nVidia card.  The BIOS boot screen (F2 at powerup) will tell you which you have.

Make sure you've  installed the Dell notebook system software, the chipset driver and at least XP Service Pack 2.  Without these the video driver won't load correctly.

well ! I am sure because I have tried to install the ATI and the nVidia driver from dell web site but it didn't work beside the resource CD I have only got Intel graphics driver in the video driver section .

I had a similar problem with the audio driver "sigmatel" and I solved it I am not expert in this but I am trying restore my laptop .I think my system wouldn't work with updated drivers it only works with original ones that comes with resource CD .when the hard drive helper downloaded the IDT audio driver it did not work but when I un install it and re install the sigmatel  direct from the CD it worked .

thank you so much for trying to help .
