I'm trying to setup Windows on a Dell Latitude E6510.I went over to Dell support and entered the Service Tag Number.I chose the Drivers for Windows 7 64-Bit and got a bunch of Drivers that don't work with the laptop.Currently I need drivers for 1. Broadcom USH 2. Ethernet Controller 3. Network Controller 4. Unknown device.I've tried downloading the intel Ethernet controller,but it would appear the device is not Intel-based even though that's what shows up for my service tag#.Anyone have any ideas? I've been google searching for a few hours with no luck.

Found the Unknown Device.Accelerometer.Found Network Controller. Intel 6300 Wi-Fi.Still looking for the other 2.

Try Intel's Automatic Update utility, it might knock out a few of those drivers for you, if any are Intel-based devices.
 
Broadcom USH - download drivers for Dell Controlvault
Ethernet controller - download drivers for Intel PROSet gigabit
Network controller - download drivers for the WiFi card that's installed
Unknown device - download drivers for free fall sensor

Intel AMT and SOL, perhaps? Could be the TPM as well. I've found that it's sometimes not listed as a driver but in a "utilities" section.

depending on the chipset, but this is probably correct. Would be best to go into device manager and get the device id string and post it.
 
I've been having the same issue w/ a Dell laptop I have. Their driver support is brutal.
 
If none of the hardware has changed, look up the warranty and then original configuration.

That should give you the correct wireless card info. Otherwise, you can just open up the laptop and look at the card to see the model number.
