Missing WIFI Driver.
Dear all,
I re-loaded windows x-p on my 1 year old Min 10 inspiron, had no choice had software issue. I downloaded all the drivers I assume I needed, but I am missing my WIFI driver, I have no problem connecting to Broadband, when I check DEVICE MANAGER,Network adapters I can only see Realtek RTL8102E/RTL8103E Family PCI- FAST INTERNET, and there is nothing else.
My question is, can some one please tell me what precisely is the Driver I need for a DELL Mini inspairon 10" windows xp, please do not tell me I need to down load a dell driver or did I check if I have pressed enable wifi key F2:emotion-8:, there is no WIFI driver and I need one (I tried to down load Broadcom but it would not work) any help much appreciated.
So I need driver/s name and location..link if possibel.
Kind Rgds

BF,
The Desktop/Notebook Utility needs to be installed first(if applicable), then the chipset drivers. If they are NOT installed first, then the rest of the drivers will fail to install.
How to Install Drivers in Microsoft® Windows® on Dell Systems
Since the operating system was re-installed did you remember to go to drivers and downloads, enter your service tag(DO NOT POST SERVICE TAG here or your post will get deleted, since it contains your personal information), and install these drivers in this order.
:emotion-55: Hint :emotion-55: When downloading the drivers, make a folder for each drivers and name it with the device it belongs with to make it easier to install them in the proper order.
Desktop System Software or Notebook System Software(if applicable)
Chipset or SMBus driver
Processor Driver (if applicable)
