hp pavilion touchsmart 14 slee
Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

I downgraded this laptop to windows 7 from windows 8 for a friend, but now I can't seem to get the network card to work. I have no internet access on the laptop, wired or wireless, so its hard to test out drivers. I have a flash drive though.

 

pulled the hardware IDs from the device manager for the network adapter and got these

 

PCI\VEN_168C&DEV_0032&SUBSYS_1838103C&REV_01
PCI\VEN_168C&DEV_0032&SUBSYS_1838103C
PCI\VEN_168C&DEV_0032&CC_028000
PCI\VEN_168C&DEV_0032&CC_0280

 

Thanks in advance.
