HP pavilion 15-ab269sa
Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

I installed Windows 7 on my HP pavilion 15 and am installing the drivers manually.

 

Could someone please point me to the drivers needed for my wireless adapter?

 

The ones I've tried failed to install properly

Hi:

 

For the wireless and USB, I am going to give you the latest drivers directly from Intel...

 

2nd one down on the left is for 64 bit.

 

https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/26150/Intel-PROSet-Wireless-Software-and-Drivers-for-Windo...

 

USB3:  Download, unzip and run the setup.exe file...

 

https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/22824/USB-3-0-Driver-Intel-USB-3-0-eXtensible-Host-Control...

 

The Intel card you have also needs this bluetooth driver...

 

This package contains the driver installation package for the Intel Bluetooth in the supported notebook models running a supported operating systems.

NOTE: In order for this package to install correctly, the previous package must be removed before running this driver update.

Hi,

 

Can you list here the drivers that you tried so far? Website? Some stuff lik that.

For the wireless adapter you could download it from http://hp.com/support. on the search bar type you computer's product number and click the Software and Drivers then click go.

 

A new page will load up and it should give you a list of drivers. Just look for network driver.

 

Hope it helps

I have tried the support drivers tab and there is nothing under my model or any similar models than I could find. I have tried this one: http://h20565.www2.hp.com/hpsc/swd/public/detail?swItemId=ob_122653_1&sp4ts.oid=5379212.

I someone could tell me the network card model in the laptop it would make it so much easier.

Hi:

 

Please post the hardware ID for the device listed as a network controller in the device manager and I will post the link to the driver you need.

 

To find the hardware ID, click on the network controller device.  Then click on the Details tab at the top of the network controller window.

 

Now you will see a Property drop down list, and it will be set to Device Description.

 

Drop down on that list and select the 2nd item (hardware ID's).

 

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

 

I will be able to get the drivers from the HP business support site from a business notebook with the same wireless card.

 

The consumer support website is broken and HP is working on resolving the issue.
