I need assistance with updates for the drivers on my computer.

I'm new with computers and need help to ensure that my drivers are up to date, I have a Dell Inspiron 1501 running Vista 32-bit and also where to go to get the updates, I need. Thank you in advance for any help, anyone can have to offer.

Is the first right to updates pilot "if it ain't broke, don't fix it'. Normally if everything works, you want to leave things as they are. The exception is that heavy players usually want to update their video and sound drivers for every last bit of absolute performance of the equipment to get the best frame rate. If you are not one of these people, you need not update your drivers, if there is no problem you're trying to solve.

That said, if you really want to update your drivers you won't get the from the website of Dell support for your specific model computer. Enter your Service tag to ensure that you get the right ones.

  • Need help with italics for the ePub and InDesign CS5

    Can anyone one help out me. I can't find the answer to this and I know it must be simple, I just lack.

    I create an ePub from InDesign CS5. All I want to do is have the italics that are displayed in the text box in InDesign, see the in the epub file.

    I prefer not to say what I did (I think I've tried everything, but obviously I got them all wrong, so no point listing them) and I hope that someone can make a simple guide, step by step how to make italics appear in the ePub file.

    Sorry if this question is under everyone, it's really annoying that I can't figure this on my own.

    Yes unfortunately sometimes does. ID is really a ship in order to get the content in epub format.

    You must go through your CSS for every job.

    Addition of

    serif; or without serifs; After each occorence a police.

    also, most in CS5 importanley make sure you have font name in the top of the CSS file "" round then, otherwise it appears correctly in the Adobe Digital Editions software, actually to check the rest of the code in this a well for example:

    {@font-face}
    Police-family: Minion Pro;
    make-style: normal;
    make-weight: normal;
    SRC:URL("fonts/MinionPro-regular.OTF");
    }

    I really only the minimum required in ID and do the rest in dreamweaver

  • The laptop recovery Toshiba Satellite L505-S5997 problem error: Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L505-S5997 computer laptop and my hardrive recently crushed, impossible to restart.  I installed a SEAGATE 500 GB/sata/GO 16 MB of Cache, 7200 RPM hard drive. I ordered recovery for the computer disks and many of the drivers will not update or install without error that tells me that "Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device. A recent hardware or software change might be installed a file that is signed incorrectly or damaged, or maybe it's a malicious software from an unknown source. (Code 52) "error.  Also, when I try to update Windows 7 I get the ' Windows Update cannot currently check for updates, because the service is not running. "  You may have to restart your computer. "When I try to download the service pack from the Web site it is usually interrupted with another error.  I tried to go to the Toshiba website and download the drivers needed and utitilities but nothing seems to work.  I am at a loss to try to seek and find a solution.

    Are you sure that the original problem was caused by a failure of the HD, did you test that the hd with the utility bootable disk from audit?

    As if you reinstalled to a new HD using that the required all defined recovery Tosh disk drivers would have been installed in this process.

    Assuming that Tosh then rebooted successfully after recovery, windows update would have run some important updates automatically. If that failed then it would seem that something is happening with your system.
