I am reinstalling Windows 7 on my Inspiron 3521 and it tells me the network controller driver is not installed. Please tell me how to get it. Thanks.

What drivers have you installed after Windows 7 64 Bit installation?
What are the hardware IDs of unknown devices, network controllers and display adapters in your system? See here:

You can search for the drivers on the dell site using your service tag # @

In the device manager under Other Devices it shows Network Controller with the yellow asterisk. When I click on properties it tells me the drivers for this device are not installed.
