Re: Inspiron 5000e - Need Intel Chip Set Update Utility for O/S Reinstall

Useful, but not necessary. The latest version Intel Chipset Software
Installation Uitlity works with all motherboard chipsets going back to the
440BX, 440EX, and 440ZX and everything up to the present. Of course, if a
computer has an earlier unsupported chipset, the Intel utility will simply not
install... Ben Myers
