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.
