ok - got that blue screen again! and got her back up - again. I am just waiting for my cd's to arrive from Dell, or until I find someone who has the same operating system that I do so I can use their cd and my license code. BUT - working on it tonight with a friend, we tried rolling back my video driver. First - there are 2 instances of it in there. We can't get rid of the one, no matter what we do. 2nd - in order to roll back the driver, a certain dll is missing. I now have that .dll file. Tried directing the system in it in the roll back area, but I just got a stalled computer and needed to use the ctrl/alt/del. so - how - where do I add this .dll file that I seem to be missing? it is called igfxdev.dll like I said - I already found the file on the net and have it downloaded to a folder.
