I recently installed Windows XP SP3 from scratch. The laptop is a Dell Inspiron 1100. It was a gift. The installation went well, until it loaded. My desktop display is in the center of the screen, the slider under the display settings is stuck at true color 4-bit, and all of the display adapter and ethernet connections are listed with yellow question marks in the device manager. how can I fix this?

Installed a rangeplus adapter on dell 1000 inspiron xp sp3 home

See if you can go into safe mode by hitting the F8 key right after the dell splash screen and right before the XP splash screen comes up. If you can get into safe mode try to uninstall the rangeplus adapter and try reinstalling again after rebooting the system normally.

My windows XP has gone corrupt on my Dell Inspiron 1525 Laptop..i've got a copy of the Windows XP SP3 which i'm gonna load..however for installing the LAN Drivers and WLAN as well as the bluetooth and...

This is a direct link to the Dell site for all of your Inspiron 1525 Drivers. Choose the XP operating system and all driver choices will come up. I STRONGLY advise against go elsewhere to get these drivers, especially when you can get them from Dell directly.
