Ok I have formatted and reinstalled windows a dozen times on mine and my fiancees computer, but im about to throw this thing right out the damn window...
She has the Dell 700m Inspiron notebook and I succesfully got windows installed but when it came time to install drivers I ran into an issue... Dell did not send her a drivers disc meaning I have to use their crappy website to attempt and find all of the correct ones. Everything was going fine until I tried to install her wireless card which is not showing up anywhere in the hardware configuration. I downloaded various drivers attempting to locate the correct one but to no avail.
So thinking maybe I installed something in the wrong order, I wiped everything clean and am reinstalling windows for the second time. Is there a certain order to follow this time drivers wise?
Also I read somewhere that dell puts a recovery partition on their computers but Ill be dammed if I could find it anywhere... how would I access it if there was?
Any reasons why the wireless card would not have shown up in the system hardware menu?
