hi chaps brought a dell omnibook 4150 yesterday it came with windows 2000 installed with all the ports working i.e usb com1 ect so stuck it on the net downloaded some security stuff and some windows updates, but once the updates were installed it wouldnt connect to the net so i decided to install xp

now the usb port is not seen at all in device manager and the com port has a conflict .
i tried to download the drivers for the pc but they seem to be in dos can any one give any advice on this
cheers jay
