(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I have recently contracted a virus on my laptop (A Dell XPS I7, I have spyware doctor). I have most likely removed it, but unfortunately it did much damage. By this I mean it deleted my USB port drivers, audio drivers, network drivers. Can someone please help me as I truthfully do not wish to have to use system recovery as it takes much time to copy everything back to the way it was. PS: it corrupted my system restore files.

Please remember to quote so I know you replied

Kinda ironic looking at your name...
Anyways did you purchase the computer? If so it should have come with some disks for your driver and your system. These will come in use.

Um go to the website brand of your laptop which is dell and type in your model of your computer and it has to show some support icon and look up for the downloads you need Smile

LOL I know it's painfully ironic. Because I have been without my laptop I have been playing on my 360. Anyways, yes but for some odd reason it almost doesn't want to update or install the drivers I need.

Yes, usually that would work but I am missing some drives not connected to Dell.

In this case I suggest using a 3rd party program such as driver docter or another such one. They will scan your computer and tell you any drivers which need updating Smile

What you could do is back up everything you want and just system restore it? Then you can get back your USB drives :p

I can't system restore it I need to use system recovery if you look @OP. Yeah, but that means I need to back up 180 gigs of data
