I’m having issues after installing a fresh version of Windows 7. A lot of drivers don’t seem to be installed. I understand this is an old pc but I’ve kept it in good condition and would like to keep using it. Model number is XW898AV. Im providing some pictures for all the drivers missing and their ID’s. Also, I can’t download or import anything since I don’t have Ethernet Controller, Network Controller or USB Controller drivers installed. I provided a picture of wifi button being orange and even if you click it wont turn on and you can also see its reading the wifi adapter bottom right screen. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hi:
The USB 2 ports should be working.
The USB controllers you see missing drivers are the USB 3 controllers.
SMBus controller: Install this driver first and restart the PC.

You're very welcome.
Try this USB 3 driver instead...
