Welcome to the Community. If you reinstalled windows you will need to install the drivers in the correct order, or some devices may not work propertly. Use the below link for help on how to install drivers in the correct order.
The drivers page for the L502x do not have a couple of those headings anymore, so I have done my best job following the drivers order page you linked, however I am not sure if I got all of them correct (for example a couple of the drivers listed under Network are separated eg step 7, 10-11).
Could somebody please check I have these correct, as it's the best job I can do myself...
Also under headings such as Chip Set and Video where I have multiple drivers could somebody please place them in the correct order if that needs to be done.... *note the order I have listed in is the order they are found in on the drivers download page - although that seems meaningless...
Finally, I have no idea which category these 2 fall under, where about on the list should I place these following 2 ?
OK here's the Dell installation order guide, I have listed each driver I THINK I need, could somebody please confirm/correct anything, this is as far as I can get without any help... I'm sure I'm nearly there though !!!
Any help would be hugely appreciated, thank-you.

It's also confusing as the driver page I downloaded from says compatibility Windows 7 64 bit (which is what I'm using Windows 7 Pro 64bit).
I did notice the majority of failed Windows updates were x64.
I don't know what to do.......
Any help appreciated, thanks.

Sorry for the double post....
I forgot to ask, as I have a single SSD do I need the ST Microelectronics Motion Sensor ?, and also do I need the Serial ATA Intel Rapid Storage Technology (RAID controller) ?
Are those 2 useless for an SSD?
