No Network Drivers
I've just installed a new hard drive on my dell inspirion mini 1080 and continues to install windows 7 onto it. However, there is no network drivers so unable to connect to the internet. What is the easiest way to fix this?

Thanks for all your help - I got the names of the download files from the DELL site - although the file wasn't present it showed the name it was looking for - so I was then able to locate the file and install it, so I'm working now.
@purplesoup - Thanks for the update and I was happy to help you.

I have already looked on the dell website and the network drivers. I selected windows 7, and then downloaded what was available and then tried to run them on my netbook, but it comes up with an error "The operating system is not supported. The software will not be installed". I did install another file which gave the error "The realtek Network controller was not found"
