Hi, I need the same drivers for the same reason but the link to the other model doesn't display any drivers to download? Can you please share some other active links for drivers that will work for my hp 2000 2d22dx running a clean instal of win 7? Thanks

Try this...

 

For the ethernet adapter, download, unzip and run the setup application from the W7 driver file at the link below....

Please post the hardware ID for the device you see listed in the device manager labeled as a Network Controller.

 

I just want to make sure that it is the ID for the Atheros wlan card.   If it is, we can try a couple other drivers.

 

Use this guide for how to find the hardware ID.

Hi:

 

You can use all of the W7 drivers from the HP 2000t-2a00 notebook on your model, except the BIOS and firmware files.

 

You have to select the operating system from the drop down list.

Yes thank you, but once I selected the operating system. It doesn't show me any drivers, and asks for the operating system again. Because my laptop can't connect to the internet, I'm trying to download the drivers with my phone on a memory card then transfer them to the laptop.

You're very welcome.

 

I gotcha. 

 

Here are the direct links to the card reader, ethernet and wireless drivers so you can get connected...

 

You are going to need to put them on a USB flash drive or burn them to a CD in order to install them on your PC.

 

This package contains the driver that enables the Realtek Card Reader in supported notebook models that are running a supported operating system. The card reader enables users to read from or write to supported removable storage cards, which are typically used in digital cameras, digital music players, and cellular phones.

This package provides the Realtek Local Area Network (LAN) Driver that enables the Realtek Network Interface Card (NIC) Chip in supported notebook models that are running a supported operating system.

 

http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp56501-57000/sp56680.exe

 

This package provides the driver to support the Atheros Wireless LAN adapter in supported notebook models that are running a supported operating system.

Excellent! Thank you @Paul_Tikkanen. I was wondering if the memory card port needed an updated driver as well. I will try and keep you posted!
HP Recommended

Anytime.

 

Glad to be of assistance.

So I got the wireless and network adapter drivers on a usb thumdrive and used the installation program to Install but my computer is still not recognizing the drivers. Any thoughts? I tried manuel installation but the device manager can't find the files even though they are on the desktop? Wi-Fi and plugged in internet is still not working?

Hi:

 

After you ran the drivers, the driver folder was created in C:\SWSetup\sp#####, where ##### is the file number of the driver folder.

 

Try browsing to those folders from each networking device that needs the driver.

 

I know those are the drivers you need, so unfortunately, if they are not working, I wouldn't know why they aren't.

HP Recommended
Yes the path is correct. If I browse for the drivers from each adapter and they are not there, should I try to reinstall the drivers directly in the adapter folders?
