pavilion 15t-n200 windows 7 64 bit drivers

[secularsurfer]

Greetings. I just recently had to do a clean install of windows 7 64 bit on a pavilion 15t-n200 notebook pc and discovered to my distress that the drivers page for this model doesn't have all the drivers such as display, ethernet, audio, and a few others that aren't installed. Support assistant doesn't recognize the missing drivers but they are shown as missing in device manager and don't come up with any microsoft updates either. Any help would be helpful. Thanks.

Most of the Windows 7 drivers from the HP ENVY 15t-j100 Quad Edition CTO Notebook PC Drivers page should work on your computer. After installing these drivers, post the Windows Device Manager's "Hardware Ids" for all remaining missing or unknown devices as shown in the example below;

If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

Thanks. That got most of them. The display drivers didn't work so no aero desktop and the cyberlink webcam software needs it. Also the unknown device is a mystery. Thanks again and if you can figure out the display that would be great.

Hi:

If your model has the AMD Radeon HD 8670M there are no W7 drivers for that GPU.

You can try the latest AMD Mobility Catalyst Beta driver at the link below and see if that works for you.

You probably need this driver for the unknown dev.

Before I did the reinstall the graphics worked fine including the aero feature. Is there any way to find out what graphics chip it uses? Unfortunately I don't remember. Again thanks for the help. Any clue why hp doesn't supply all the drivers for this model?

You're very welcome.

Go to the device manager and click to expand the display adapters category.

Then click on the standard vga adapter.  At the top of the window, click on the Details tab.

Now you see a Property drop down list.

Device Description is the default label.

Drop down on the device description and select the second item (Hardware ID's).

Post the top string of characters you see in the window.

That will id the manufacturer and model of the device.

If your model has the amd radeon 8670, HP did not release W7 graphics drivers for it.

I have given forum members the 8670 W7x64 graphics drivers from comparable Dell and Lenovo notebooks and they didn't work on the HP models for whatever reason.

Here it is:

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_0A16&SUBSYS_2163103C&REV_09

I think it might be Intel HD. Let me know. Thanks.

Hi:

You're right.

It is the Intel HD graphics driver.

What Intel processor does your model have?

[secularsurfer]

Intel Core i5-4200u CPU @ 1.60 Hz

Looks like I got it all. Thanks for your help. Now if HP would get a clue and put all the drivers for this model on the same page.
