Network and Ethernet Controller Not Recognized

 I recently wiped my laptop and installed Windows 7 Ultimate. I thought I had done everything right, but now the Ethernet and Network Controller are under "Other Devices" in Device Manager. I have combed the web to find the drivers, but cannot find anything. I have a Inspiron 17 (N7010). Anyone have any ideas? THank you

You must install the chipset driver first (second entry under Chipset), reboot and then install the network drivers:

Awesome, okay I got that chipset downloaded. They are still listed under "Other Devices".  What would be my next step?
