a. Install Dell Notebook System Software (click the + sign next to System Utilities). Restart.
b. Next install the AMD processor driver (click the + sign next to Chipset). Restart.
c. Finally install the Sigmatel audio driver (click the + sign next to Audio).
Get these from
1501 XP drivers
Rarely there will still be a problem with the installation at this point (in XP). In those cases follow this tip from forum member rpilT2005: check in the Device Manager for a "PCI Device" with a yellow question mark next to it, under the "System Devices" grouping. Hit 'update driver' on that one, and it should find the driver.
