Reloading OS on laptop

I reloaded a fresh install but don't have all the drivers on my 1150 Inspiron. Can't find my drivers disc.
 
Can I download all the files for my service tag? THANKS!!

does the sequence of installation matter or I just do it either way?
 
You don't "run" anything.  You have to install the drivers ONE AT A TIME.  And the sequence doesn't matter AFTER THE FIRST TWO.

  You have to load each one separately.  The files install on the system, they execute, and then most of them require a reboot.  Figure 5-10 minutes per driver.
