Can anyone tell me the name of the program you run to check the hardware
compatibility on a Win XP machine. I've used it before but can't remember
the name :(

Ok I found the program on the original cd that came with my Dell I5100.
It has the program on it but won't run since I updated to SP2. It just says
it can't continue cus the version of windows is newer than the one on the
disk :(

That is more than likely the Windows XP installer and not he hardware
compatibility checker.

You can uninstall SP2 and use the old disk, Dell can
probably supply you with a new CD with SP2, or you can
slipstream the OS and SP2 to make your own up to date CD.
