Thank you!

 

Would I need all of these to get my pc back up to standard? Also which one specifically gets the ethernet or wireless?

Thank you so much! Instantly after posting that message I did more reading and felt a bit silly for asking you which one when I could literally read the details of each driver there. I go everything (for the most part) up and working yesterday and I can see myself fine tuning to make sure its all up to speed this weekend.

 

Thank you again!

Anytime.

 

Glad to have been of assistance.
