that came with your computer or docking device.
• Download the drivers from the Dell support website.
Installing the Docking Drivers From the ResourceCD or Drivers and
Utilities CD

In most cases, the CD should start running automatically. If it does
not, start Windows
Explorer, click your CD drive directory to display
the CD contents, and then double-click the autorcd application file. If
a welcome screen appears, click Next. The first time that you run the
CD, it might prompt you to install some setup files. Click OK and
