Hi:

 

If you have an ar5b225 wireless card, then you need this driver...

 

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

 

ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp56501-57000/sp56572.exe

 

The hardware ID you posted is for the Realtek gigabit ethernet (wired) controller.

 

If you need the driver for that too, here it is...

 

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.
