CQ60-400ca drivers and software needed

[puskyer]

Hard drive failed, no recovery partition on new drive. installed windows XP, I do not have original Vista CD's the laptop did not come with one.

Once XP is installed I get a number of unknown devices error in device manager

Network, WiFi, USB, co-processor, etc.

the HP site no longer has the drivers for download, where can I find them now?

thank you

Hi:

You probably need this Wi-Fi driver:

Atheros 2011 Wireless LAN Driver

https://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp54501-55000/sp54972.exe

This driver should install the ethernet adapter and coprocessor.

I think your notebook uses the same chipset as this one.

HP Pavilion dv6000z CTO NVIDIA nForce Chipset Driver and Network Controller v.8.62 A for Windows XP ...

would you have access to the audio/modem driver

hadaudio\func_01&ven_14f2&dev_5051&subsys_103C360A&rev_1000\4&7cc389&0&0001

Unfortunately, I don't.

I've never used this site before, but they indicate they have the driver if you install their software.

Download HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_14F1&DEV_5051 Drivers for Windows 11, 10, 8.1, 8, or 7 - 64-bit and 32-...

I couldn't find where you could just download the driver.
