deleting hardware recognition

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance




I've had problems trying to install a Lan adapter, mostly due to
incompetence on my part. I need to remove the hardware recognition (my
terminology!) from my laptop so that I can install the software in the
correct order. How do I do it please?

Question 2: I have downloaded the drivers from D-Link's website to a
flash drive, where do I locate the drivers on the laptop? Do I unzip
the folder and only transfer the specific file?

Apologies for the ignorant terminology.
