I recently experienced a problem when my administrator page was disabled in some way. I attempted to restore my computer and after the restore almost finished my computer went black and absolutely everything including all manufacturer programs, drivers, software were deleted.I can not even istall any CD's into my computer because the driver to install is gone..Please tell me what to do. I have no way to get an internet connection because that driver is gone as well.. Marci

I did reinstall windows, the only program detected in my computer is recycle bin. I am trying to figure out basically if there are disks I can buy to help reinstall drivers?Or should I just suck it up and take it into a shop to let an expert fix it?

Use a second computer to d/l the chipset and network driver, then install them.

Well if the drivers to your disk drive aren't there you won't be able to use CD's to reformat anyway... try going on a laptop or someone's computer, go to your manufacturer's website, download the drivers and try using a flash drive to install them.
