I have an XPS Gen 2

Vista automatically installs chipset drivers (as well as most drivers) upon a new installation

Should I still install the most recent Intel or Dell chipset drivers...

and if so...

would I UNINSTALL the ones that Vista automatically installed before installing the new ones?

I have Vista that was factory installed and it uses the Dell drivers for both programs. Also if you clean install be sure to install the notebook system software. Hope that helps. To get the drivers use the express code on the bottom of your rig and search for the latest drivers for Vista. Good luck...
