Hi! I've installed Windows 7 on my old HP Pavilion 15-b153er Sleekbook, but the system couldn't find some drivers. I've tried some but they didn't work.
Please help me find the correct drivers.

Hi:
You need these drivers...
First install the driver for the smbus controller and restart the PC.

I forgot to ask you to post the ID for the Unknown device.
So after you get these drivers installed, please post the hardware ID for the unknown device, and I will give you the driver for that one too.

Hi:
What model Intel processor does your notebook have?
Please post the hardware ID for the Network Controller device in your screenshot, so I can give you the right wifi driver you need for it.
Use this guide to find the hardware ID for a device...

If the SMBus controller device is no longer showing up, then the Intel chipset driver did its job.
