It is only a recommendation, you can use Driver Cleaner free version and it would do the job.

Check Control Panel - Device manager and tell me if the 9400 GPU is there along with the GTX cards ?

if so go into the BIOS and disbale it

I found that when all the GPU's are listed it messed up my game play.

aso did you install the Chipset drivers from the Dell Site, along with the Sounds drivers

check dells site for any updates to those drivers

and make sure you do the Windows updates - keep doing them until it says no more are available ( several reboots required )

Go slow with the drivers and apps. One at a time ... And restore points along the way.

Reinstall seems to have helped..New Problem though.....after i shut my laptop down and i start it back up i lose my internet connection...i cant even see my connection in the ones available..the only way to get it back is to uninstall the broadcom and restart windows and then it detects it and works...but if i turn off my pc and then back on..its gone again.Any thoughts?

My preference is for the Intel 5300 wireless solution and they are fairly cheap on Ebay. Beyond that I know Win 7 takes some time to get wireless up and running and you might make double sure you have your wireless setup as a profile preset (such as "home") so it knows to find it quickly.

Better experts than me might chime in, however, so listen to them first
