You have to install drivers yourself, it won't come automatically. Before we can help, we need to know what EXACTLY is your HP Pavillion Notebook ? Please use the following instructions to find out the model/product of your machine:

It is an Star Wars Special Edition 15-an050nr, its specs

Which came with   Windows 10 Home (64-bit), not Windows 7. And NO support drivers for Windows 7 for the whole series

But it has Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 3165 802.11 ac 1x1 WiFi and Bluetooth 4.2 combination WLAN adapter part #  806723-005

 

Please download and install (wifi and Bluetooth) 2 drivers:

@Brblevins 

 

Well, do you have a LAN cable you can connect to download ? If not do you have friends or relatives, ask them to download for you, copy to a flash drive (USB thumb drive) then install to your machine.
