UNSOLVED
Driver question
I have just had my system board replaced. When you boot it shows that it is a model c610. I had an Inspiron 4100 prvioously. My question is that the modem drivers are different for the 610 and 4100. The 610 is conextant by actiontec v92 mdc v 305.32.02 and the 4100 is conextant by actiontec v92 mdc v 5.03.21 a07. If the mother boards are the same why the different drivers?
Thanks..

The C610 and the 4100 use the exact same notherboard. The only difference between any Latitude and equal Inspiron notebook model is the BIOS - it changes the parameters for the docking connector. The C-Dock and APR use different protocols. To change your C610 back to a 4100, just download the latest 4100 BIOS (floppy version only please!) and flash it. Follow the instructions exactly for success.
Forgot to address the driver issue - use the R50360 driver - it is the latest. Dell doesn't always get all the driver links updated - unfortunately.
