Pavilion DV2945SE
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Upgraded to Windows 10 & all seems to be working well, but device manager now shows coprocessor driver (under "other devices") as not installed. HP Support Assistant did not find them. Do you have the drivers for this laptop/OS?

Hi:

 

You need this driver for that device, and you probably will need to manually install it.

 

This package provides the driver for the NVIDIA nForce AR Chipset in the supported notebook models and operating systems.

 

https://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp37501-38000/sp37730.exe

 

Run the driver, and if it installs the coprocessor device, great.

 

If not...go to the device manager, click on the coprocessor device needing the driver.

 

Click on the driver tab.  Click on Update driver.

 

Select the Browse my computer for driver software option, and then browse to the driver folder that was created when you ran the file.

 

That folder will be located in C:\SWSetup\sp37730.

 

Make sure the Include Subfolders box is checked, and the driver should install.

 

Then restart the PC.

 

Your notebook is not supported by HP for W7, let alone W10.  So there are no W10 drivers available.

 

For any devices that need drivers, use the Vista drivers from your notebook's support page.

 

You will have to install the graphics driver the same way you installed the coprocessor driver.

Thanks, I'd run that SP37730 driver package earlier & automatic installation worked for the graphics. A manual install through device manager was required to fix the coprocessor issue.
