In addition to Yves Jean's excellent advice, you also need to make sure you have re-installed the chipset and notebook system software before installing the other drivers.
> Look above in the blue bar and hoover mouse on 'Notebooks', then click on 'Inspiron' and then on 'Drivers & Downloads'.
> Enter your Service Tag number and click on the arrow next to the number. (If you don't know your Service Tag number then leave that box blank and instead select your Product model from the 2 dropdown boxes.) Click on the arrow.
> On the next page select your operating system and system language. Click 'Find downloads'.
> The next page will have a list of all of the drivers and applications that Dell has provided for the model and operating system you selected.

You probably need to install drivers. Check on device manager which devices needs drivers:
Start -->right click MY COMPUTER --> properties --> hard ware-->device manager
The ones with yellow question marks on it are the devices that needs drivers installation.
