@diana-morrissey
Is your BIOS at least A17?
You will need to do a clean installation of Windows 10 ... NOT upgrade. I hope you did that.
Once Windows 10 is installed, use a Ethernet cable to get online and get all Windows 10 updates. The reason you do this is because wifi probably won't be working but Ethernet will.
After you do that --- this can take an hour or longer --- come back if you still have problems.

Welcome to the Dell Community @diana-morrissey
First try this driver.

If it does not work then post the "Hardware ID"
