Answer» laptop (Dell precision M90) OK let me start at the begining.. My laptop developed a fault and dell sent out a tech to replace the Motherboard and Graphics CARD.

Trying to connect by VGA Allso befor the tech visited the laptop would work no problem on the TV. I would be very greatfull of any help. kind of need my laptop working for a college presentation thank stevenQuote ...formatted and reinstalled window XP. You never do that. Unless the manufacture says so. Many laptops being sold not are " not XP install enabled." Which means the factory install was a custom job that you can not duplicate, EVEN with the factory install disk. In some cases, even the factory drivers and chip set disks. The manufacture is not motivated to keep an update CD image of whatever is on EVERY model of PC that does out the door. They have the stuff on their private server in the factory. Sorry this is not much help. Just wanted to give you a clue as to what may have happened.thanks but I dont think that could be the problem as the laptop was formatted before the tech replaced parts and it worked fine on the TV.... Yes I have to regularly formate my computer as i fill it up with crap all the time lol. where could I check i have the most uptodate driver ?? thanksQuote where could I check i have the most uptodate driver In hardware devices you should be able to see what the date or version for ash important hardware device.
