My company is giving me a new”ish” laptop. Its an Alienware Sentia with specs following:
- Intel Pentium M - 1.7GHz
- 2GB Ram
- 80 GB HD
- DVD +&- RW
- LAN, Wireless 802.11A&G
I’m going to wipe it out and put Microsoft Vista Ultimate on it. I’m currently downloading the OS. Its taking a while of course. For those that don’t know, Microsoft Vista comes on a DVD. Well the DVD is 2GB. That takes a long while to download. It looks like its going to be somewhere in the time frame of 6hrs depending on the Internet’s speed.
In the mean time I want to start to download the drivers from Alienware. Unfortunately the previous IT Dept didn’t write down the account numbers for the laptops. So I can’t log into the website to download the drivers.
Lets hope that Vista has all the needed drivers.
