linux 3.19 kernel fuzzy video no wireless possibly something with kernel and chipset on Dell studio 1555

[Joyce]

Most recent updates to 14.04 LTS on a Dell Studio 1555 screwed up video and disabled wireless and wired network card. I used advanced Ubuntu startup in order to use prior (before updates) linux kernel in order to post this, as neither network card would work.

Ran lshw and grabbed the following:
