Need help with Ethernet Controller
I recently had to reinstall everything in my computer because it crashed. The trouble I'm having now is that I can't find the appropriate driver for my Ethernet controller. I know that it is made by Intel but I can't narrow it down to which Ethernet controller it is. Can anyone help me out?

first of all, I hope you read http://support.dell.com/support/topics/global.aspx/support/kcs/document?c=us&l=en&s=gen&docid=DSN_1A0C0937D62A8739E0401E0A55174744&isLegacy=true before doing your reinstall
second, to get the driver, use your Service Tag #

I used the Service Tag but couldn't make sense of it. is my Service Tag. I couldn't figure out where to find what my ethernet controller was.

nintendork,
If you followed ieee488's advice, the ethernet adapter should be there. Try running Finding System Information remove your product ID and post it back here. At the bottom we should be able to see your network adapters.
