    Anybody know how to get around this? The driver was last updated in 2013 and obviously meant for windows 7. I called Dell and they said the device should work on Windows 10, the driver itself just hasn't been updated specifically for this old iteration of the M17 laptop.

    They mentioned other drivers for other laptops can work and its a matter of trial and error for the most. I was wondering if anyone already knew which driver could work?
