Need Driver for Wireless Card
I've got an Inspiron 530S with a wireless card in it which attaches through a plugged in cable to a round antenna. I picked up a terrible virus last week and had to reinstall Windows XP in the computer, which made a lot of drivers disappear. The little wireless card in the Dell has a label on it with "DP/N 0MX846" on it. Can someone please point me to where I can find the correct driver for this card? I've looked through the Dell website and tried a couple I downloaded from there, but they didn't work. Thanks Guys, Jeff |

It is a Dell DW1505 wifi card with Broadcom chip. For more info, use this link on the Dell community web site. http://en.community.dell.com/support.../19247401.aspx This link does not tell which versions of Windows are supported. You are running XP, Vista, 7 or (I hope not) 8? http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/...driverid=D7HGJ Dell began shipping wifi cards as an option in desktop/tower computers beginning with Vista, more or less...
