Thanks Rick. Still couldnt get it to work that way, so in the end i clicked on the generic Network Controller and clicked on Update Driver and then told it to look in c:\dell\drivers, and it located the correct driver and installed correctly. Wireless now working!
Hi, I had to re-install Vista on my Dell Studio 1535, and site the re-install i've not been able to connect to wi-fi because Vista apparently doesnt seem to recognise the wireless adapter. In Device Manager it lists the generic "Network Controller" and has a question mark next to it.   I've installed Dell System software, Dell Notebook System software, Quickset, chipset drivers and the R206848 file that includes the 1397 drivers, yet its still not recognised. What am i missing?
