    Hi,

    I would suggest you to go to the manufacturers website in the link below install the said drivers in compatibility mode and see if it works:

     http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/download.aspx?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs&releaseid=R141246&SystemID=INS\_PNT\_1501&servicetag=&os=WLH&osl=en&deviceid=9707&devlib=0&typecnt=0&vercnt=1&catid=-1&impid=-1&formatcnt=0&libid=27&typeid=-1&dateid=-1&formatid=-1&fileid=188377

    Here are the steps to run a program in compatibility mode:

    Open the Program Compatibility troubleshooter by clicking the Start button, and then clicking Control Panel. In the search box, type troubleshooter, and then click Troubleshooting. Under Programs, click Run programs made for previous versions of Windows.

    Follow the instructions in the troubleshooter.

    If you cannot install a program, insert the installation disc for the program and, using the troubleshooter, browse to the program's setup file, usually called Setup.exe, Install.exe, or something similar. The troubleshooter is not designed to work on programs that have an .msi file name extension.
