Just go to Dell's website... they should have EVERYTHING for that machine.

lol figures,, people on OCN wouldn't know how to fix Dells....

most computer shipped after some month around nov 2004 by dell have a recovery partition/image stored on the HDD, that you can use to reload the pc. it's powered by norton ghost.

when first booting up make sure you hold CTRL + F11 (i think). Press it several times to make sure you get it, to start this recovery console.

this image / recovery console will return the dell back to it's factory state, with all the drivers installed! =D.

Good luck
