Driver for Latitude C510

Question

Hello, I recently reformated my laptop, I am running Windows XP Pro, and I have built in wireless, as it has worked before. After I reformatted I dont know how to get wireless back onto my pc, I dont know which drivers to download, where to get them or how to even check which drivers I need, I bought this laptop used so I didnt get any software with it, Im completly stumped, I just need this laptop to catch a wireless signal from my university so I can do work there. Can someone please help me?
Thanks

Is your wireless adapter a PC Card wireless adapter (inserts into the PC Card slot on the side of the laptop) or an internatl wireless adapter?  If it is an internal wireless adapter and is the adapter that was originally shipped with the computer, then the drivers are at:   http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/type.aspx?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs&SystemID=LAT_PNT_CEL_C510&os=WW1&osl=en&deviceid=2491&libid=5   If it is a PC Card wireless adapter, then you should be able to look at it and tell whether it is an Intel adapter or a Dell adapter.   If it is the Dell PC Card adapter, the drivers are at:   http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/type.aspx?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs&SystemID=LAT_PNT_CEL_C510&os=WW1&osl=en&deviceid=2574&libid=5   If it is an Intel PC card adapter, the drivers are at:   http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/type.aspx?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs&SystemID=LAT_PNT_CEL_C510&os=WW1&osl=en&deviceid=2962&libid=5   Steve
