Where can i find restore media for a HP Pavilion g7? My hard drive failed so no access to the F11 restore. I have a new hard drive now. I have tried 4 realtek drivers for PCI\VEN_10EC&DEV_8136&SUBSYS_166A103C
Driver SP53753 loaded the ethernet driver but not wireless

Hi, Jeff:
What is the full model number or product number of your notebook?
Use this guide to find that information:
How to Find Your HP Laptop Model Number (Video) | HP® Tech Takes
The PCI\VEN_10EC&DEV_8136 is the Realtek ethernet controller driver.
If the wireless adapter needs a driver, there will be a device listed in the device manager labeled as a Network Controller.
Post the hardware ID for the Network Controller and I will post the link to the driver you need for it.
