Thanks Rick.  I did install them first.  At least I installed the CD that said to install first, before reinstalling OS...
I had to reformat my HDD and reinstall everything.  I can't access my wireless network, because there apparently is no network adapter insalled.  I do autodetect and it does not find the driver.  I've let it seach online, and no luck.  Can someone look at my original configuration I got from my Service Tag and tell me which driver and where to get it for my network adapter?  Thanks.  
XPS M1530 will not automatically install wireless network adapter after 
reinstalling OS and drivers from CD
