The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    If possible use system restore point to set your system to a time before the driver installation to see if this correct your problem.
    Why did you not just use the software and drivers from the Dell disc?

    I think you need to install the package r154200 and follow the readme.
    That should help you solve your problem

    Go to safemode and uninstall the last program and/or do restore from there.
