Inspiron 580S - Network DW1525 Adapter Device not Found

Hi,

I have recently re-installed Windows 7 64-bit to format the hard drive (Inspirion 580s) and have found I am not able to connect to any networks as they're not appearing at all in the network & sharing centre as options.

Have since downloaded the ethernet driver and have gone to install it only to notice that every time I do try and install it - it comes up with the error 'DW 1525 - Adapter Device Not Found'.

Can I get some help on this?

I presume you're talking about on the onboard Broadcom NIC (ethernet) and not a WiFi card.

Did you install both chipset drivers first and follow them, in order, with the other drivers: video, audio and Broadcom network?
