ive got a brand new dell laptop that im less than happy with. Only used it a day, and its blue screened on me twice, itunes wouldnt install at all, no matter how many times i downloaded it. MSN messenger wouldnt install, took several reboots and several downloads before it would.
windows updates were randomly failing on me
and to top it all, ive downloaded 4od, and it comes up blank when playing stuff back. Ive read up on what seems to be a common ish problem, but none of the fixes suggested on the net work. Daft thing is flash works as iplayer works and i can view flash websites fine
but i dont think its 4ods fault. Ive got a vista desktop and an XP laptop both installed it fine first time without faults.
Only thing i can think to do now is format it. But there doesnt appear to be a recovery partition. Ive got a dell branded OS disc however. Is this just a vista disk with Dells logo on ? furthermore will the key on the bottom of the laptop work if i try and re-install using this disc ?
