Need Ethernet driver for Compaq Presario CQ60-204nr

I reformatted my laptop and many of the drivers I need are missing. Looking under the network section I was able to get one for the wireless but not for the Ethernet port. What do I download to fix this?

Hi,

Download and install NVIDIA nForce Chipset driver from here.

Next reboot / restart your system.

Re: Need Ethernet driver for Compaq Presario CQ60-204nr

Hi Daniel,

 

I am also looking for Ethernet Driver for my dv9728cl; NVIDIA nForce Networking Controller, too. I tried clicking on the link in your post , but it didn't work. Could you please provide me with the link? I replaced my hard drive & did a clean install of Win7 Ultimate 32bit, but I haven't been able to connect hard-wired since I upgraded to Win7. Thanks in advance for your help in this matter.

I was just reading your post and unfortunately HP does not have windows 7 drivers for the dv9728cl network adapter. This model laptop was designed for Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 2000. You could try the Vista or XP drivers and you may get lucky but there is no guarantee :smileysad:

 

 

For the Compaq see if this link has the answers to your questions....

Hi,

This driver is not for your model so please uninstall it from system.

 

Resource:
Uninstalling Software in Windows 7

Uninstall or change a program in Windows 7

 

Download and install nVidia Chipset from here.

When you will do this reboot system. This is really important. 

 

All drivers, software and solutions for your specific model you will find in the link below:

Hi:

 

You can probably get it from this model's support page.

Hi, Cornelio100:

 

Please install this chipset driver which should also install the network driver.

If you are looking for more than the network driver which is the title of the post then please read the XP downgrade guide at the link below. The guide instructions for your model can be found under the section lableled Moderate Models.
