Thank YOU!
The first one went smooth as silk.
The Reaktek has a slew of choices on that site. I'm not sure which one is correct one? Please advise.
Also, INTEL blocked the install and said to Uninstall the older product first. I'm not sure where to find that and Uninstall it? Control Panel? Got this one taken care of...used Ethernet of coarse.
Would it be okay to uninstall the Intel (R) Network Connections 16.5.2.0 for Dell as shown in the attachment?
**And I do not want to lose my Internet connection while I'm doing this process.

You're very welcome.
Yes, it looks like you can uninstall the Intel (R) Network Connections 16.5.2.0 for Dell right there in the Programs menu in the control panel.
You will lose the wifi connection when you install the wifi driver.
Otherwise if the wifi is working, I would just leave it be.

Dear Paul,
Thank you very much! The HP site wasn't up to date and I have been trying to work out any week spots due to BSOD.
All is well and i did use ethernet.
Stay warm and Safe!
Have a blessed evening ahead.
Kindly, Raphael
