    So I have a studio 15 and I want to just delete all the garbage that is one the computer, re-install Vista, and install all the applications that I WANT on the computer. My question is: Can I just put in the "operating System" disc that came with my laptop? Will that do what I'm looking to do?

    Okay ran it your problem or future problem. Just put in thier disk run windows installer FORMAT HARDDRIVE, install windows takes about 15 minutes. Use another computer, AND DOWNLOAD THE INTEL Network drivers. It for you wireless card. I think go under dell.com drivers and network and look for something for network. Install that on your computer and bam you got internet. Post back if you need help.
