Windows 8 driver for HP 802.11b/g Wireless Network Adapter

[Lisboa_HP]

I have two older HP Pavillion PCs that I upgraded to Windows 8 without much of an issue.  The only drivers I have not been able to locate are for the Wireless NICs.  I've looked high and low with no real success, and wanted to see if anyone out there might know if these exist:

Product: HP 802.11b/g Wireless Network Adapter

NIC Model: WN5301A-H1-V02

Desktop:  HP Pavillion d4000 PC  (D4990Y)

The on-board LAN jack works just fine, but one of these systems goes into a remote location and I don't have an interest in running a 25-foot cable across my room.

Anyone have any ideas on where I might find the Windows 8 driver for this device?

(Admittedly, all the HP support docs for this product stop at Win 7, but every other piece of gear in these PCs works just fine other than the missing wireless NIC driver, so I'm trying my luck for a driver versus dropping in new wireless NIC devices.)

Hi:

Did you try manually installing the Vista driver?

I see there is only a 32 bit driver available, so if you installed W8 32 bit, see if that works.

Download and run the file below. Close out of any error windows you get.

Go to the network controller needing drivers in the device manager, click on the driver tab. Click on Update driver.  Select the Browse My computer for Driver software method and browse to the driver folder that was created when you ran the file.

That file should be in C:\SWSetup\sp35019. Make sure the Include subfolders box is checked and see if the driver installs that way.

I'll have to look for 64-bit drivers to go with the OS.

Not helping myself here, apparently.

Please post the hardware ID for it.

If we know what wireless chip it has, we may be able to find some alternatives.

Please see the guide at the link below for where to find that info.

Here's what shows up when I pull the Hardware Ids through Device Manager details.

Hi:

I believe that is an Atheros 5006X wireless chip.

Click on the link below, and select the AR5006X W8 x64  driver download and see if that works.

Hi, @NARMADAHONDA :

See if this W8 driver works for the model wlan card your notebook has...

Broadcom Wireless LAN drivers are required to enable the integrated Broadcom Wireless LAN adapter.
