like I said... the old drivers were working, then I believe it had some Malware jack the drivers
so I put AVG and MalwareBytes on...but They don't find any malicious rookits... but I'll get the Device Mgr up and let you know what flags show up...
thanks for your kind help...

but this rookit seems to keep standing Erect and disable the Driver again and again...

How was it disabled? You could usually enable this by right-clicking your network adapter then enable. Same with your ethernet card. Are there still flags for your adapter under device manager as previously asked?

Okay. Please go to the Dell support site, enter your service tag number, and download and install the chipset driver followed by any appropriate network / ethernet drivers.

"this rookit seems to keep standing Erect and disable the Driver again and again"
Could very well be. Maybe you should address that issue first in the Am I Infected forum & then install your drivers.
