Inspiron n5110 Windows 8 - Problem with Intel WiDi

I've upgrated to Win 8 and the Intel WiDi program isn't working. I downloaded all the latest drivers and tried to install it again but didn't work. A message appearing on screen tells me that InstallShield Wizard canceled because the platform isn't compatible with Intel(R) WiDi or the application is in use.

What should I do? Please help me.

Does your n5110 meet these requirements?

Specifically check your wireless network adapter as Dell has a tendency to use quite a few different ones, in the same line of units.
