    Hi all, hope someone can help, i've just installed windows 7 on the m11x, however i'm having some problems with drivers.

    Three are missing, windows 7 says:

    2 Base System Device
    and Network Controller

    Are missing, i've gone through every download on the dell website, the WIFI driver out right wont install, it says This software package cannot be installed on your system. The setup application will exit.

    So far i've installed:

    Intel chipset
    Realtek
    atheros
    Dell WLAN
    jmicron
    nVidia
    touchpad drivers
    Command and OSD
    and the STMicro free fall sensor

    Any ideas where i'm going wrong?
