Hi:

 

You need this wireless card driver...

 

This package contains the driver installation package for the Qualcomm Atheros AR9000 Series wireless LAN Controller in the supported notebook models running a supported operating system.

That model card also has bluetooth so you need this bluetooth driver too...

 

This package contains the driver installation package for the Atheros Bluetooth 4.0 + HS in the supported notebook models running a supported operating system.

You're very welcome.

 

Yes, that is the card reader that needs the driver...

 

This package contains the driver that enables the Realtek Card Reader in supported notebook models that are running a supported operating system. The card reader enables users to read from or write to supported removable storage cards, which are typically used in digital cameras, digital music players, and cellular phones.
