sounds like you have build 6801 or below.

use this tool to activate the features.
Yeah, thanks found that out last night.
I appreciate your help + Rep
You should get build 7000. Its so much better.
Since this thread is kinda over and done with I'll hijack it instead of clogging up the forum with another on a similar subject.
I wanna install windows 7 on my Dell Laptop, if I do will it have the drivers for the touchpad and keyboard and all that or do I have to get them from elsewhere? I've never installed a new OS on a laptop before :P
Thanks in advance
If you are using Windows Vista at the moment you will be fine (Vista and 7 use the same drivers). If you are using XP at the moment download this (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/win...e-advisor.aspx) and check to see if there are drivers available. You could also make a new partition and have 2 os's running on your computer.
Mouse and keyboard etc will be able to use generic drivers built into the OS and if there's any compatible manufacturer drivers you can install them as well if you want.
Tyvm, tis all installed and working nicely ;) Its weird to see that laptop actually working smoothly after a year of having it on vista lol
Hijacking the thread further, please can someone PM me details on where to get build 7000? I want to install it, how much space do you recommend?
