Hi:
For the usb controller, download, unzip and run the setup.exe file from the link below.
There is no information online regarding what model wireless card (network controller) your notebook has.
Please post the hardware ID for the network controller, so I can figure out what model wireless card it is and then I will post the link to the driver you need for it.
To find the hardware ID, go to the device manager and click on the Network Controller needing the driver.
Then click on the Details tab at the top of the Network Controller window.
Now you will see a Property drop down list and it will be set to Device Description.
Drop down on that list and select the 2nd item (Hardware ID's).
Post the top string of characters that you see in the window.

Thank you Paul for the 2 links.
I download the 2 files by clicking the link. What I got are sp74497.exec and sp74497.exe
> NOTE:
> In order for this package to install correctly, the previous package must be removed before running this driver update.
Where may I find the previous package as the network controller has no driver.
With both of them: when clicking them after the InstallSchield Wizard showing the content, etc the extracting ended with a box saying:
"The contents of this files cannot be unpacked. The executable you are attemptng to run has been corrupted. Please obtain another copy of the file: very its integrity, and try again."

You're very welcome.
Both files worked for me and if you hadn't installed the intel bluetooth driver previously, then you don't have anything to uninstall first.
Try the drivers directly from Intel...
Wireless: 2nd driver on the list for 64 bit.
Bluetooth: 2nd driver on the list for 64 bit.
