Network Controller Off - can't find drivers, please help? (Asus X555LN laptop)

OS: Windows 7 Ult 32bit
Laptop: Asus X555L - Notebooks & Ultrabooks - X555LN - ASUS
Specs: i5 CPU, GF GT840M, 8GB RAM DDR3

What's ridiculous, even Asus driver disc (in laptop's packaging) doesn't work, crashes. I installed drivers manually.

Broadcom WLAN doesn't install: http://i.imgur.com/HT94J6y.jpg

Problem #2: http://i.imgur.com/qGsLvgs.jpg

I tried to install this: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Det...+1000&lang=eng

Installing Qualcomm and Realtek WLAN drivers sometimes threw out a "Can't install properly, the device might've been disconnected. Reinsert". But the installation continues and finishes.

Can anybody help? I have no idea what's going on. Tried all respective WLAN drivers from disc and internet, no solution.

Thank you very much, guys!
 

As I said, some drivers installed perfectly, they come in pack to be compatible with all types of OSs (right?).

Yes, I have 32bit. My comp -> properties -> OS: 32bit (8GB total RAM (3.5 usable)).

Would Win7 64bit really help?

 
My laptop is brand new, first installation of Win7. I've downloaded all of the drivers for WLAN from Asus official wbesite. Still not working....
