HP Notebook
Microsoft Windows 8.1 (64-bit)

Product Number: Z3C97EA#ABU

 

Downgraded from Windows 10 to 8.1, did a clean install. I am aware I deleted recovery partition which was a grave mistake in my part.

 

I've searched for the drivers everywhere but even the official HP website is unable to help me because of it not having "Windows 8.1" on the drop down list of OSs for the drivers.

 

 

I've downloaded HP Support Assistant and it can't seem to recognize that I am missing my WiFi driver. 

 

Here are the list of drivers missing from my laptop and corresponding hardware IDs:

Also I've just noticed that my ethernet keeps failing every one minute or so. As in, I see the network connect and disconnect a lot. 

 

IF somewhat this doesn't get fixed, please offer alternatives!

Hi:

 

That wasn't a good idea because Intel and Microsoft refuse to support any PC with the Kaby Lake chipset and 7th gen core processor, like your model, for any other operating system except W10.

 

Intel did not develop any graphics drivers, so the graphics won't work correctly, even if you install the rest of the drivers you posted.

 

So, you may as well reinstall W10.

 

I can give you all the drivers you posted but there is no point in doing so since the graphics won't work.
