just allows you to see the screen interpretation of the settings. the
blue fn key still controls them just fine.
i suppose you can download that from the dell website.

Hello. I recently reinstalled XP on my Vostro laptop when I ordered
Vista (I know, it was an option to order XP. Accidents happen)

My girlfriend ordered the same laptop and on her factory
installation, she has a bunch of extra things when using that
laptop. It must be some driver I don't have installed, but I thought
I got every single one that I needed from the website.

The features I'm talking about are things like, she can see a little
brightness tab whenever she adjusts the brightness and things like
that. I also don't have a battery indicator, so I don't know what
driver I missed

If anybody can help me, please reply!

Thanks!
