I'm planning to do a clean install of Windows on my Dell Inspiron 2-in-1 laptop. I'm wondering if there are any special steps I need to take regarding drivers for the touchscreen or stylus. Do I need to download these from somewhere? I'm aiming to get rid of the Dell bloatware that came installed.

You should definitely check the Dell support site for any necessary drivers. Usually, the touchscreen works fine without extra drivers, but the stylus might need one, especially if it functions like a mouse.
Here’s a quick rundown for your Windows install: 1. Get the Wi-Fi drivers from Dell's support site. 2. Follow the steps in the comment below to create a Windows install USB. 3. Before shutting down, drag the Wi-Fi driver installer onto the USB stick. 4. Complete the Windows installation following the rest of the guide. 5. If you don't have Wi-Fi during installation, run the installer from the USB afterward. 6. Once installed, you can get the rest of the drivers from Windows Update or Dell's support site.

Thanks a lot!
