I tried all over Google and can't find ANY help whatsoever. It all started yesterday when my laptop (Dell Inspiron 15 7559 w/ Windows 10) blue-screened and restarted (Error code: DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE) It restarted, and once it did, I couldn't connect to my Wi-Fi anymore. No Wi-Fi options appear, only VPN and Dial-Up. It still crashes every now and then, with the same error code.
I stayed up all night trying to repair it, and nothing worked. I just want to kill myself now. Some help would be GREATLY appreciated.

I would recommend re-installing your wifi drivers. Download and install both of these:

http://downloads.dell.com/FOLDER03266625M/1/7559_Network_Driver_CYG71_WN32_12.0.0.127_A00.EXE

I can't really download them since I have no wi-fi, though. It doesn't even work with the ethernet cable.
>>22186
download it on another computer, transfer it on a flash drive.
>>22211
Yeah just tried that
Thanks very much for trying to help me by the way but my laptop won't even recognize USB peripherals or drives except from my mouse, but laat night I was able to reset it. If that didn't change anything, should I kill myself?

factory reset? that should do something, worst case scenario you can always reinstall windows. then it'll work fine unless your hardware is fucked, which is usually a simple but costly fix.

i would try to repair your windows installation first, but i'm out of the loop, i just work on legacy corporate stuff, xp and windows 7. windows 10 may not have that option and you'd need disks.

It's INCREDIBLY easy to reset windows 10. I would recommend trying to do this.

If a reset doesn't take care of it, then I would recommend calling Dell. Your computer might be under v and they could provide assistance.
