Then, extract the file using your Windows computer.

Yeah, don't call geek squad unless you want to get robbed. I'm sure you have a computer savvy friend that can help you out. It almost sounds like you don't have the right driver installed. What do you have listed in device manager under network adapters?

It's critical that you have every letter/version number/serial number that matches the card correctly.. Take out your card and double check yourself.. I had a network card that I couldn't fix for a long time but I took it out and found out that it was a version "b" and that's why it didn't work...

If there is no .exe file to actually update the driver then you need to direct the update to the folder where the driver is located.
