    i keep getting BSOD when trying to install the wifi drivers frm ftp://ftp.dell.com/Pages/Drivers/alienware-m14x.html (Under the NETWORK driver section)

    the first one "DELL,SRV,DRVR,WRLES,KILLER,INS,VOYA,6.1.0.304,A03
    Bigfoot Networks Killer Wireless-N 1103 a/g/n 3x3 MIMO" doesnt get installed.. Says hardware not found .. but when i try to install some of the others, i get the BSOD... i had to go into safe mode and restore back..


    Can anyone give me the link to the correct wifi driver ? M14x R1 Win 7 64bit

    I do not have the Alienware backup option because i am using a new HDD

    Can you go into device manager, network adapter, locate the wireless network adapter. Right click on it, then select properties, go to details, then hardware ID's from the dropdown menu. Copy and paste the 1st line there in here.
