I have a HP Pavilion dv7-4000 that I had to put Windows 7 back on. I have programs that will not work with Windows 10/11 even in compatibility mode. It wasn't easy but I got 7 on the lap top but now I need drivers to get it online, graphics ect. I cant believe HP took all that down, anyone one know where I can get them?

 

Thanks

Hi:

 

Yes, it is unfortunate that HP retires support for all consumer class PC's once they reach 10 years of age.

 

Plus, HP no longer allows access to their driver FTP site.

 

So, the only reputable 3rd party driver website that I know of where you can find drivers for your notebook would be at the link below:

 

HP Pavilion dv7-4000 CTO drivers (driverscollection.com)
