    Hi,

    Vista crashed .. again.
    So I'm now trying to install Windows 7 on my XPS 1730.

    Setup starts normally and then states:
    'A required CD/DVD drive device driver is missing..'.
    I can then browse, whatever media I insert, for the driver. But where can I find the desired driver? I checked the Dell drivers page but I can only find firmware?

    Regards,
    Mike
