Hello, I just reinstalled windows 7 onto my laptop and now I cannot connect to the internet. I am unsure of what drivers to use because the one that is installed doesnt work. Does anyone know how to solve this issue.
 
Your laptop had several options for its wifi card.

You will need to take off the bottom panel so that you can access the wifi chip and get the model number of it.
The wifi chip is a little square chip that has a single black wire and single white wire going to it.
