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:

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.
