    ok long story short, I reformated my 1705 to get rid off all the crap dell put on it. I find out too late that dell sent me the wrong driver disk I got another one in the mail but I doubt it will be here before my unit ships out overseas. so I had the bright idea to just download the wireless driver then go smooch off someones wifi to get the rest. I am on dial up and the 37Mb wireless driver on dells site will take about 6 hours to download, but the problem is that I always get disconnected after 2-4 hours I know that the english only version of videro card drivers are like half the size of the full version. is there an english only version of the 3945 driver?

    Please don't create a new thread when you've already posted this problem on a previous thread. This just causes double posting on the forums, and ends up not helping you at all.

    If you'll look at your previous thread, I've already told you how to get the wireless driver.
