Did you  use the O.S. disk that came with the laptop? Most Laptop restore disks are different from a generic windows O.S. CD. They are usually tweeked by the Laptop manufacturer to maximize the storage and memory capacities of that particular machine.
Also if you right click on MY COMPUTER then click properties then click the hardware tab then click device manager you can see all of your hardware components. If you see a yellow ! or? then you need drivers for that specific device.
And if you have just reinstalled windows you should definately get all of the current updates by clicking the start button then clicking window update.
