Open the MiniPCI slot door on the bottom of your computer, look at the wireless network card and see if you can determine if it is a Dell card or an Intel card.

Did you install the chipset drivers as the first drivers installed after reinstalling Windows and before attempting to install any other devices?

im not sure which drivers were installed first, we had to bodge it as dell didnt supply a disk with any drivers on or an operating system disk, we didnt have hardly any of the stuff we needed.
