Just like the title says i need to find all the drivers,dell l502x with western digital 750gig black hard drive,an intel graphics card,and other unkown graphics card,intel processors, i recently installed a new hard drive.i have the os disc that came with it and the drivers and utilities disk,funny thing is the drivers disk has drivers for windows 7 and only a couple would work for it. I have already been to the dell website. i could also only find a couple of the ones i needed,so if someone could help me located them all,or share with me what you have used that would be great.
Help me find ALL the drivers ill need for my Dell l502x.

You're not really helping people to help you. "Unknown graphics card" - I don't think anyone can help you with that. Disk drives don't need drivers, nor do processors (although drive controllers and chips supporting the processor may). And you say that you have found a couple of the ones that you need but don't tell us which.
The Dell website is the best place by far to get drivers (assuming that Vista is supported on your model - it seems pretty unlikely that you'd be installing it if it wasn't what came with the PC), but the disks that came with the computer should contain all the drivers that you need.
What particular hardware isn't working?

I'm baffled that anyone would want to install Vista on a computer that came with Windows 7 or 8. If it's not supported by Dell then you have to search for generic drivers for the hardware that isn't working. They may, or may not, exist.
It came with vista,hence why im using the vista OS disc that came with the laptop. Sorry about being so unclear,the reason i am posting here is because on the DELL SITE like bubblehead said,it only lists drivers for windows 7 and 8. Which if you can imagine,is very irritable to me, since i am running vista and have since day one,and will continue to for the rest of the life of this laptop. Any help finding the drivers is appreciated,

That particular model did not ship with Windows Vista preinstalled. That model comes with Windows 7 or 8 only. What is printed on the COA? If it in fact does state Vista then your only recourse is to purchase the drivers & software disc from Dell.
Im not quite sure either,when i ordered it i do not remember selecting vista,and i cant really see why i would. But if you look in the middle of this image,you can see Vista,then right under it 7. Yet it did come pre installed with vista and the vista os disc was included with it.
I have found this, http://ftp.dell.com/published/Pages/xps-l502x.html#Drivers and this http://downloads.dell.com/Pages/Drivers/xps-l502x-all.html . It seems that everything i need should be there so im going to put them all onto a usb drive then reinstall the os and drivers following the correct protocols.
