Running Vista home Premium. DELL Inspiron 531
I recently received the following email from Dell

On trying to install it I get the message that the software does not recognise the operating system as windows vista and therefore the installation will not continue.
Any help would be appreciated.

I beg to differ! Dell does appear to send emails. This one gives links to the Dell relevant driver page. I have copied it here for your perusal.The Realtek driver installed correctly and did what it is supposed to do.I actually opted for this email advice service on the Del website.Any comments?Bob

I stand corrected, but I have no way of knowing if the OP subscribed to this service, better to error on the side of caution when it comes to email.168

That's OK, but I still have no idea why the updated driver will not recognise my system as Vista and install itself.I certainly agree with you about caution with regard to emails and I often delete them (without opening) if they are the least bit suspicious.Maybe someone out there could help me with the driver problem.Bob168

I don't meant to persist, but you are saying that you Did sign up for the Dell emails?Did you try downloading the driver directly from the Dell site? Use the "Drivers and Downloads" link to the left side of this forum.
