i would love to use dell's ws. i bought the laptop on craig's list and i later found out it had been stolen. i'm 73 years old and paid good money for it. the police didn't seem interested when i contacted them, but i left my name and phone# and email address with them. i do have the cd's that came with the comp. i just had to reinstall windows (xp) and i wonder if i use the driver cd, will that reformat my hard drive? thanks, boyd.
