text: hardware help? ok, i formatted my computer and rienstalled windows on it. now it wont recognize any of my hardware except the hard disk. i have a ati x600 and it doesnt recognize it and it doesnt recognize the sound card or internet connection. i have done all that compatibility and stuff and taken the card out and put it back in. anyone know how to fix this problem? thanks normally dells come with a recovery disc or install disks. it should have come with a cd that lets you install all the drivers back on.  go to control panel and then systems. check your audio and internet settings and make sure they have been enabled.  if you cant find the sound driver, then go to http://www.soundcard-drivers.com and install it back on after finding out from the systems menu what sound card you have.
