Pavilion DV5-1170el

I noticed that the DV5 notebooks no longer appear on the support pages.

 

I have a DV5-1170el that I want to restore, does anyone know where to get the driver+software+ BIOS update package so that I can archive it on my own before it disappears from all over the internet?

 

EDIT: I see that the user @Paul_Tikkanen is very active and provides the individual softpaqs for this line of computer, if you read you have the complete list of all the softpaqs that have come out for the DV5-11XX series?

 

thanks

Wow thank you, I edited the post but you were quicker. Also do you know where to find the ISOs of the restore DVDs?

HP Recommended

But how do you find those links? I've been going around on the HP Italy and US support sites for an hour, but I've never been able to find the DV5-1170el page

You're very welcome.

 

The model series has been retired.

 

I just did a general internet search 'DV5-1170el drivers,' and the HP driver page showed up.

 

HP no longer has recovery media for your notebook and Microsoft no longer has W7 ISO files for download.


Unfortunately, I don't have any idea where you could find one for your notebook.

 

You can try this vendor to see if they still sell recovery media for your notebook:

They took the drivers off the site, but through google you still get to the page that for some reason remained indexed

Good to know!

 

I download them all and upload them to the internet archive to preserve them

 

thanks Paul!

Anytime.

 

Glad to have been of assistance.
