    Hi All,
    I got my Dell Studio 1555 yesterday. It had only two partitions when I started it (C:- OS, D: - Recovery). Since I wanted a separate partition to store my documents, photos, music etc. I decided to repartition and reinstall the OS again. The following softwares were preinstalled when I received the Laptop and how can I install them now in the newly installed Vista:
    1. Dell Chat
    2. Windows Live Software
    3. Dell Online Backup
    4. New Wallpapers - I can't find them too.
    5. Dell Dock

    What do I do now? I don't have any installation CD/DVDs for the above softwares. :(

    Please help, experts. :eek:

    The Drivers and Downloads page for the 1555 is pretty empty right now...talk to Dell and see if you can get them to send you a drivers and utility disk.

    You can definitely get the Dell Dock, though.

    For whatever reason, the 1555 page doesn't have those programs. If I were you, I would go to the Studio 1537's page and download them from there. They should be compatible since they use the same chipset.
