Dell & there New Download Manager

Recommended Posts

As per title... has anyone actually managed to use this yet?

 

I have a Dell inspiron 1501, and everytime I download the 'Download Manager' it starts to "verify" and then says there are files missing? I have downloaded it from various parts of Dells website to see if I can get any joy but its saying the same thing all the time..... :rolleyes:

 

Basically I am looking for the Dell USB Smart Card reader Keyboard drivers....

 

If any of you can help me look for like... a Zip file of the drivers or something? I am having no joy at all!!!

 

Its a Dell USB Smartcard reader keyboard Model SK-3106 there are drivers on Dell's site but it keeps requesting to install that Download manager which does not even work......

 

Regards

Im had a 1505 Lee, I had the same issue in the past.

 

my brother-in-law said it was some sort of software confliction issue and Dell would eventually issue a patch to correct it, he managed to get round it in the end for me but feck-knows what he did.

 

Im round his later so Ill see if he can point me in theright direction for ya :thumb:

Cheers fella :cheers: great help if you can. :)

 

 

he told me he doesnt remember the exact name of the patch he used (was a while back) but he knows its a generic job not Dell issued and quite widely available on download sites. He said he did a straight forward problem search through google not expecting any real results but came back with shitloads of answers and he just used a link from one of the hits to find and D/L the patch to correct it.

 

hope that helps fella :thumb:

The laptop originally came with Windows Vista, but I have Windows XP Pro SP3 on it now as it runs much better. :)

 

 

did the same with mine, dumped Vista as in all honesty I found it glitchy and unimpressive. Dont recall having any issues with Dells D/L manager before I did that but TBH I dont recall using it atall before the downgrade to XP so chances are thats what screwed up mine and did the same to yours

 

the patch that my brother-in-law installed was likely a upgrade to the relevant software back to Vista levels maybe? :unsure:
