HP 15-af131dx
Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

Hello,

 

I recently bought an HP 15-af131dx Notebook PC from BestBuy. It came with Windows 10 but I am not a big fan of Windows 10 so I downgraded to Windows 7. I have been searching for hours for the internet drivers for it but I can't find it. Now, it seems that HP only has drivers listed under Windows 10 for it and the Windows 10 drivers seem to not work. Now, I can see that there are no official drivers for Windows 7 for this model, but does anybody know wireless drivers that will work?

 

 

Thanks

Hi, @Ines_libelula :

 

For the smbus controller driver, download and install the first driver on the list from the link below.

The webcam shouldn't need any drivers.  You need to make sure you install the graphics driver and then install this webcam software...

 

This package contains the CyberLink YouCam Software for the supported notebook models and operating systems. CyberLink YouCam is a webcam application that enables users to capture images and video from a web camera and apply visual effects to captured images and video.

See if this graphics driver works...

Switchable graphics enable users to switch between a power-saving graphics mode (normally used under battery power) and a high-performance graphics mode. If high-definition multimedia interface (HDMI) video output is supported, this package also installs the HDMI Audio Driver.
