I just installed a clean install of Windows 7 on my E6510. This version of windows came with service pack one, and service pack one shows as installed. I have 3 GB of RAM installed.
I am getting errors when trying to install the chipset. I tried to install all of the appropriate dell drivers for my E6510 in the Dell recommended order , but after bios A17 which went fine, I kept getting errors on the chipset drivers. Specifically, the error I get says “this computer does not meet the minimum requirements for installing the software.“
In order to perhaps overcome the chipset install errors, I am first doing all of the windows updates that I can.
Several of the windows updates are failing, but I am working through them piece by piece.
Is there any reason that the system would not support Windows 7 64-bit?
I did not get any errors when doing initial W7 install, but now I am starting to ask questions with all the problems I’m having.
