Yes, that is the info I needed:

 

Here are the links to the W7 drivers you need.

 

First install this driver and restart the PC:

 

Intel Chipset Installation Utility and Driver

 

https://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp64001-64500/sp64380.exe 

 

Standard VGA Adapter:

 

Intel Video Driver and Control Panel 

 

https://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp101001-101500/sp101485.exe

 

Audio:

 

IDT High Definition (HD) Audio Driver

 

https://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp65501-66000/sp65631.exe

 

PCI Simple Comms Controller:

 

Intel Management Engine Components Driver

 

https://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp79001-79500/sp79059.exe

 

USB controller:

 

Intel USB 3.0 Driver for Intel 8 and U/Y Series Products

 

https://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp81001-81500/sp81157.exe

 

Ethernet:

 

Intel I217LM/V and I218LM Gigabit Ethernet Driver for Microsoft Windows 

 

https://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp79001-79500/sp79046.exe

 

PCI device:

 

Realtek USB and PCIe Media Card Reader Drivers 

 

https://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp80501-81000/sp80672.exe

 

One of the unknown devices probably needs this driver:

 

HP 3D DriveGuard Software 

 

https://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp77501-78000/sp77869.exe 

 

After you get all of those drivers installed, post the hardware ID for the remaining unknown device and I will post the link to the driver you need for that one too.

Ok, I will install it all and get back to you. But wait, do I need to go through all these process anytime I format my system using window 7 software 

HP Recommended

Yes you will need to reinstall these drivers any time you reinstall Windows.

 Have downloaded the first one and restart my computer, but the video driver came up with that when I tried to install it after downloading. 

HP Recommended

OK, I guess you have to use the older version of the driver:

 

https://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp74501-75000/sp74957.exe

HP Recommended
ok
HP Recommended

Make sure you have installed Windows & SP1 because the graphics drivers may not work unless you do.

 

If you do not have W7 SP1 installed, you can download the SP1 update from the link below, 2nd file listed.

 

Microsoft Update Catalog

HP Recommended

the older version is also saying the same error as the version you gave me before for the video driver when trying to install it
