no usb drivers after downgrade 10 to 7

[lostinspace1]

Hi Im really hoping someone can help me on this one, i recently downgraded from win 10 to win 7 on my

hp notebook

product number:N5Z06UA#ABA

Model: 15-ac143wm

I didnt do anysort of back up im used to having to retrieve drivers from web but it looks like ive learned my lesson here, none of my USB Ports work (3, one 3.0 and two 2.0) card reader wont read either ive downloaded and installed the BIOS and chipset from HP but cant find the USB drivers, page doesnt load from what i suspect is B/c machine wasnt designed for win 7? Is there anyways I can get my USB ports to work?

 I have tried to uninstall usb and reboot to let windows find the drivers and have also tried to install from the list of drivers>selecting microsoft in drop down menu...still no luck

thanks in advance for any help

ok so i clicked on this link a few more times then it downloaded

     http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp71001-71500/sp71260.exe

after install and reboot i no longer have errors in device manager

 USB ports are still not working, they worked just fine before downgrade. i know you said to install this with the other 3 then continue so it did go out of order ...any ideas?
