Galmington, Yes, Thereal-dbk4297 is correct with his statement. Go ahead and install the DSS for your system. It will help you with updates that may be needed for your system  
Hi, I have re-installed Windows XP professional onto my Grandson’s computer, a Dell Dimension 2400 about 5 years old.  Whilst it was absolutely clean, no other programmes, I installed XP3 on as well.   I am not to worried about installing Dell "accessories" nice as they may be,  I just want a basic computer for him to play games on. My next hurdle are the Drivers that I need to install. I went to Dell support, How to download and install drivers in the correct order" and it has given me a long list of drivers. Some I know I need, monitor, audio etc but some I do not recognise or have a question about. Do I really need to install the following: 1. Desktop System (DSS) – it says this is a vital utility that provided critical updates and patches for the operating system – I thought Windows did this? 2. Chipset. Is this really necessary this is not a new computer IntelvPro or AMT ? Dell Wireless Mobile Broadband cards? Modem – now this might be a must not sure ( I am going Orange Wireless Router set up. Touch Screen Digitizer ??   ANY help on any or all of the above would be very much appreciated. Thanks
