meanmaan,

Vista 32-bit, correct? You need to go to Drivers & Downloads download and install the Vista 32-bit Notebook Utility and the Vista 32-bit Chipset Drivers followed by...

Desktop System Software or Notebook System Software
Chipset or SMBus driver
Processor Driver (if applicable)
Video
Audio (sound)
Input Drivers (keyboard/mouse)
Modem
Network Card

QuickSet(Laptop only)

Hi,

I am getting exactly the same problem on my Inspiron 1525 laptop ( Dell Wireless 1395 WLAN minicard). I uninstalled the device driver and on installing it again it says " The operating System is not supported" . Before the uninstallation of the devoce driver it had shown yellow triangular sign on the device driver and "This device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31). Click 'Check for solutions' to send data about this device to Microsoft and to see if there is a solution available." at the device status.

Please help me.

Thanks,
