    Hi,

    I'm typing from a newly formated Inspiron E1405, I have installed most of the drivers all actually, except the wireless one. However my usb ports dont seem to be recognized. I know its a software issue cause theres a question mark on them in Device manager from the control pannel. Am I missing a driver? or is there something im forgetting? What must i do do solve this issue

    Thanks.

    You need the Dell NSS program from the drivers page.
