I have an old Studio 1535 (T9300, ATI 3450) that I'd like to install the Win8 x64 Dev preview on. During setup, before I can even choose a HD to install to, it asks for a driver.
"A required CD/DVD drive device driver is missing. If you have a driver floppy disk, CD, DVD, or USB flash drive, please insert it now"
But I have no clue which driver its needing. So I grabbed every x64 driver on Dell's support site and went through each extracted zip file, one by one, choose all of the drivers available and click Next, but it always comes back with the same error.
Is there any easier way to troubleshoot this?
Some other thoughts. The system currently has Vista 32-bit on it. Does that matter? Vista is the only supported OS by Dell (thus, all of their drivers are Vista), but I know that Win7 installs OK.
