Another thing that works on my PC is: When you plug in something into
your USB port and Vista asks you the 10000st time what that might be,
click the option to locate the drivers manually. Then browse to "C:
\Windows\System32" as the folder it should search for it. I know ...
sounds absurd... it should do this anyway by default. But I'm just a
stupid user, what do I know ... I bet there is a really really good
reason for Vista being too stupid to do this. Or Dell ****ed up. ...
No, it's Vista. Fact is, on my computer it will find there driver
there usually .... if I tell it.
