Drivers for Wifi - Vostro 1550
i just bought a new Vostro 1550 from a local vendor without OS. I purchased a W7 licence separately and installed it on my system. I am having trouble finding drivers for the the following three on
1. BCM43142A0
2. Network Controller
3. PCI Simple Communications Controller
I have no clue about 1 and 3.
About 2, since I have already installed the LAN driver and am able to use it, Network Controller would refer to the Wifi controller. I have tried all drivers coming under network on the download drivers page on Dell's support site but none of them is working. All of them are saying that the necessary hardware has been ejected/not installed.
Any help in guiding to the right drivers would be greatly appreciated. Am using Win 7 64 Bit. Link for drivers is below.

ajtorr,
When you installed the operating system, did you install the Desktop/Notebook system software(if applicable) and the chipset drivers first? If not, the rest of the drivers will fail to install. How to Download and Install Drivers in the Correct Order
Start with the Desktop/Notebook system software and the chipset drivers and follow the list.
