I just recently got a new motherboard, lcd screen, and video card replaced by Dell people. Now my driver for the wireless card, video card, and a bunch of other stuff is gone. I cant use the internet, play any games, or do anyting at all. Any help appreciated.

Go and buy a new one or request it back from the Dell people, since they took it away. But my guess is that they won't surrender it.
Otherwise, just go get a new one, and better ones.

First, take out the motherboard CD driver... Then pop it into the CD drive... Then install! HUZAH!
Dont have the CD? Go to another computer with internet, download the driver from dell.com. Copy to USB. Bring to other computer. Install.
Now you have internet and you should easily be able to install everything else.

Bam! I have been trying for a loooong time.
1. How do I determine what motherboard/video card/wireless driver do I have?
2. In device manager, they are all listed as "PCI Device" and they do not tell me a name

| Click start---> Click Run---> Type in "dxdiag" without the quotes. You can find out all your info from there.

If they are all from dell, use dell.com.
There you can pick your comp style, and they should have the drivers.
If you can't find them that way, then go live with someone, they should be able to help.

you can use CPU-Z to get extra information about your system.
