Question

Dell 1 x 10 Backplane problem

May 2, 2012 3:53PM PDT

I have a Dell Inspiron 6400. I recently tried to upgrade to Win 7 but part the way through the installation it stopped and informed me that there was a problem with the 1 x 10 Backplane and I should update the driver. I have tried Dell's site but there seems to be nothing available? Anybody help..

Sorry, the Inspiron 6400 is a laptop. But it refuses to play ball anyway - it refuses to upgrade to Win 7.
