    I cannot download any drivers from the dell website because I cannot even get online with that computer.

    You can download the drivers from any computer.

    When you install the drivers are you running them after the CD loads them to your hard drive? That is take the optin that says "Open with.." ??

    It's the Dell CD that came with the computer. I've had two other people look at it, and they can't figure it out either. I'm determined to fix it though! Any other ideas?

    Are any peripheral devices still wired up to the computer, printer, modem, etc?

    Disconnect all of them except the keyboard, mouse, and monitor, if there are.
