My sister wanted to buy a Laptop and I recommended Dell Inspiron N5110.
This was first and last time I recommend Dell to anyone.
The machine came with preinstalled Windows 7 home basic 64 bit.
I formatted the HDD and installed Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit.
Dell provided no Driver media along with the purchase.
I searched Dell's website to find out it had only 64 bit drivers.
WiFi drivers are not available even via windows update.

@Sahyadri I am afraid, 32 bit drivers are not available as this system is sold with 64 bit only. Thanks ^TG

Being a hardware vendor shouldn't Dell make drivers available for all compatible OS's. ?
