A Dell will have a Service Tag reference on a label stuck to the case somewhere and you can go to your country's local Dell website and input that reference in the Support and Drivers section. That will lead you to the list of all the drivers for the specific hardware they put in your machine when it was built. It's also the safest driver source.
