Inspiron N5010 windows 7 64bit wireless driver not functioning
Inspiron 15 Intel (N5010)
After purchasing a new hard drive for my laptop and reloading windows 7 home premium 64 bit, i began downloading the appropriate drivers most of them seemed to work, except for my wireless adapter that doesnt want to pick up,
I have tried the dell support website for the drivers on that list dont seem to work either, I ended downloading as much drivers as i can, as i do not know the make of my adapter and my knowledge of hardware is extremely limited.
kindly please assist with the appropriate drivers for my problem thank you very much.

pharoah165b,
When you reinstalled the operating system, did you install the Desktop/Notebook system software(if applicable) and the chipset drivers first? If not, the rest of the drivers will fail to install. How to Download and Install Drivers in the Correct Order
Start with the Desktop/Notebook system software and the chipset drivers and follow the list.

Thanx for the swift reply....:-)
No i dont think i followed the list,
Do I need to remove the drivers from my system first than re install them,? If yes how is that done...
and do i need to restart after each driver installation, please pardon my ignorance im really a dummy when comes to these issues.
Thanx for the great help
