Desktop System Software (DSS) or Notebook System Software (NSS) - A vital utility that provides critical updates and patches for the operating system. If you are reinstalling Windows or updating all drivers, it is important that this software be installed first. This is located under the System Utilities Category on the Drivers and Downloads page.

PCMCIA/Smartcard controller located under the Security Category on the Drivers and Downloads page.

This is located under the Applications on the Drivers and Downloads page. The DCP is split into three separate programs with each one controlling different aspects.

masawa72,
.net framework is available through Windows Updates.
I am going to have this thread moved to the Alienware Board.
