Hello All, I'm pretty much having the smae issue you guys are having, I reinstalled my operating system (Windows 7 - 64 bit) on my Studio 1558 laptop. I installed all the drivers but there are two drivers keep showing up on my device manager with an exclamation point. - Network Controller & Unknown Device HELP! I can't get on the internet :(
