I got a HP Pavillion Laptopot that came with windows 10. My AutoCAD softwaretw plus other software only works with Windows 7. I created a second partion on the HD, installed Windows 7 and AutoCAD and both are working. However, I cannot find drivers for the USBs, Ethernet and HDMI ports. This meaning that I can't use the Mouse, printer or any other device that I need to do my work.
I appreciate very much if anyone could tel me how I can fix this.
Thank you!

Hi:
For the smbus and usb controllers, install the AMD Chipset drivers and restart the PC.
You want the first file listed on the webpage.
http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/chipset?os=Windows%207%20-%2064
Ethernet:
This package provides the Realtek Local Area Network (LAN) Driver that enables the Realtek Network Interface Card (NIC) Chip in supported notebook models that are running a supported operating system.

Graphics/HDMI:
This package provides the AMD High-Definition (HD) Graphics Driver and Catalyst Control Center for supported notebook models that are running a supported operating system. For notebooks with switchable graphics modes, this package includes drivers for both graphics processing units (GPUs). Switchable graphics enable users to switch between a power-saving graphics mode (normally used under battery power) and a high-performance graphics mode. If high-definition multimedia interface (HDMI) video output is supported, this package also installs the HDMI Audio Driver.
