All Connections lost after OS Reinstall  

Good Afternoon

Just to start off, I'm new to the forum and just a self taught PC User, even though I use them all day at work!

I have recently reinstalled Windows 7 Professional 64 Bit onto a Samsung NP400B5B (old work laptop) from a recovery disc bought online (used successfully before) this was to remove all data and network info to use the machine at home and now the laptop has rebooted all the Network/Wifi connections have been lost.

I have tried the obvious fixes like downloading the driver package from Samsung and loaded via USB, from desktop, had a chat with Samsung who were not particularly helpful, checked Wifi/Network Connections in BIOS & Control Panel.

It looks like the machine knows the Hardware is there but does not know what it is and cannot match up the drivers I have installed. If I can just get the Wifi connection working the rest should update automatically.

If anybody has any ideas how I can resolve this, please contact me I would be really grateful

Thanks

Thanks for your message firebird

BIOS Already checked everything is enabled

I have 8 devices with errors, all with the same code - code 28

Devices only have generic descriptions not actual names

Thanks Chrislabert

Thanks firebird

BIOS Update downloaded tried to install but without a network or internet connection this does not work

The link is an update to the BIOS Updating Software not the update itself

Thanks Chrislabert
