Well long story short my computer completely busted on friday. I don't know how, I went to turn it on and it wouldn't boot XP. Well after 17 hours straight and a waste of a saturday I got it working...to a point. Then today I went back to get it all back up and running and encountered a problem. Basically my soundcard wasn't working but everything else was. I check out the dell site, the CD I used to install my drivers was infact missing some of the drivers so I got them off the dell site. Mainly just 2 drivers. One needs the other and the first one needs the service pack 2. I download the service pack, it did give me some troubles but I finally got it, and when it does the automatic reboot it gets to the desktop and tells me internet explorer is having a data execution error (or whatever the hell it is) and nothing loads!
I'm getting really tired of this microsoft crap, it's only a 2 year old computer so none of this should really be happening. I'm at my wits end people! Anyone who has any advice on how to fix this I'd be extremely grateful! Anything? My heads about to explode.
