Not recognizing TouchPad, USB, Wifi, or Ethernet on 13.04

Had 12.10 before and things were fine. I am using a Dell Vostro 3550 laptop. All devices work fine from the Live USB drive. But after I actually do the install onto my drive, my touchpad, usb ports, wifi and ethernet are not working.

I am dual booting with Win7, have tried upgrades, full reinstalls, recreating the linux partitions. Nothing works. Anything I can try?

Looks like I found the answer to my own question. It appears that the installation process from the CD/USB is busted. I went back to 12.10 where all drivers worked fine and did an update through update-manager. I am now on 13.04 and all devices seem to be working now.
