Dell Latitude E5420 Graphics Issue

Yes, the link you sent me to download the drivers. I grabbed that and used the wizard to install it. Here is the attached ioreg.

I am looking in console now, im filtering by BCM and network but nothing is showing up, its a long list.

The driver on the first post does not support your device-id, 14e4:1681. You could try adding it to the Info.plist, or you might read more of the thread to see if there is an updated one with support for your device.

Look at the buyer's guide on this site.

But without working Ethernet and without built-in WiFi, you will not be able to access the Mac App Store and other Apple services.

I am back to windows 8.1. I looked at buyers guide all i saw was Wifi without USB connection. I need a Wifi USB adapter. I do have one but dont know if it supported, USB Wifi adapter D-LINK DWA-162 N900 Dual Band Adapter. Im looking to see if I can find support.

Maybe in one of the older buyers guides (I saw one in there at one point...). Or you could search newegg.com for Mac compatible USB WiFi. But I don't recommend it anyway as it won't give you access to the Mac App Store. Instead, I suggest replacing the internal mini-PCIe WiFi card with one that is compatible with OS X.

OK, i will change the internal mini-PCIe WiFi card and try installing OSx again. What about the display? It worked but it did not recognize second monitor, is there a way I can change or do something about that?

How is the external monitor connected?
