iroc9555,   No, you are right. The image would have the old drivers that were installed at the factory. Sometimes I type faster than I think.   Not quite sure what you need with DSS but...   Download Search Everything and install it. They type DSS and it will give you a bunch of places it's at. It has a folder on my Vista machine.     Rick
Hi every body. Since last time I used this method to have my PC like new, I have updated Bios, chipset, a couple of firmwares, and drivers. Do I have to reinstall all of them again? I asked this question about the BIOS before, and I know that it stays in the MOBO so I do not have to flash it again. I also suppose that chipset and firmware behave like BIOS and they stay in their respective hardware, but what about drivers for video and NIC :emotion-42: and most of all the famous Desktop System Software (DSS) :emotion-40: My sys is in my sig. Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
