Ok so I just reformatted my girlfriend's pc. It's a dell optiplex 745 just for browsing and simple games. She got it off overstock.com a few years back. It did come with a legit copy of windows and cd key. But it has no other cd's that she is aware of for drivers and what not. So all went fine until we booted it back up. We can't get it to connect to the internet.

I got device manager up and this is the errors we are having

I been googling and trying to download drivers from dell to a flashdrive and cannot fix these issues. I fixed a few of them and this is what I cannot fix atm. Any help at all would be much appreciated.

Ok that worked and allowed us to connect to the internet now. But I't wont allow us to connect to the modem now. I don' t know how we are connected to the internet right now but we are lol. There is no lil icon in the tray showing us as being connected. Ethernet controller is now gone but the others remain. Shouldn't we be connected to the wow wifi modem since the wire is directly plugged from the modem into the pc? Thanks man should have this fixed soon with your help. If it's not showing us being connected to the wow modem is this pc not on a secure network?

Can't figure out how to connect it to our wow wifi modem. My pc runs fine on wifi in the other room just want to get it connected so it's on a secured network. Found out by googling to get the internet icon to show in the system tray. It shows 2 pcs blinking Local Area Connection Speed: 1.0Gbps Status: connected want to get this back on the wow internet where am I even connected to right now lol.
