Please identify the wifi adapter by its part number or complete model name.

 

The wifi adapter device should be in the network adapters section of the Device Manager.

 

If I may ask, just why would you prefer Windows 8.1 over Windows 10?  Are you installing a dual boot setup?

I recently replaced HDD. So i thought about giving try with Win 10, but its device drivers are not available in HP support page because of that system performance went too low, So I went back to Win8.1

HP Recommended

OK.

 

How about providing the information that I requested in my previous post.

Hi, @TommyRio

 

This is the latest W8.1 wifi driver for all models of the Ralink wifi adapter...

 

This package contains the driver installation package for the MediaTek (Ralink) Wireless LAN (WLAN) Controller in the supported models that are running the supported operating systems.
