Reformat gone bad - please help

The two files at the bottom of the folder are the wireless drivers I have tried installing.

I didn't show you a picture of a Linksys driver. I showed you a picture of two drivers that I downloaded from the Acer support site. I used a disc to install the linskys driver. I'm not sure that there is a file for the Linksys driver that I can take a picture. Have I checked the site for the updated Linksys driver? No, I have not. I'm trying to follow Slardybart's lead and post all of the screenshots he asked for and then I will get to the site and check for an updated driver. I have one last screenshot to get - for the wired IP4 config.

Dude you do not have a Linksys wireless adapter so what was that all about?

IP Configation for wired adapter

No, I do not have the ethernet cable plugged into the Win7 machine. Should I have?

The Network and Sharing screenshot shows that the wireless adapter is trying to connect.

Do you have the ethernet cable plugged in to the Win7 machine?

I'm gonna pause for a moment and try this other driver Greg provided the link for. I'll report back in a moment.

The drivers for the installed Wireless Device are here: REALTEK - Download driver for RTL8185 and Windows. Latest is Vista unless you have a later one already.
