Re-installation

Hello,

I apologize if this is the wrong section, I couldn't decide if this should go in laptops, drivers, or here. To make this short, I have an inspiron 1545. I had to wipe the drive and reinstall, I have the OS disc but do not have (and cannot remember if it came with) any other installation discs for it. I have downloaded  the drivers off of the Dell site for the laptop and put them on it via usb, and installed them. However It will not connect to anything.  It will not connect wireless or hardwired. Is there a particular installation driver I'm missing and can download? Can I download a virtual disc of the ones I no longer have? Support and suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
