Windows 7 is no longer supported from all vendors. Please download and install

Hi, @doublezz28 

 

You need this ethernet driver and what you can do is this:

 

Driver - HP Pavilion m6-1084ca Entertainment Notebook PC | HP® Customer Support

 

Download the driver using another PC.

 

Copy it to a USB flash drive.

 

Plug the flash drive into your notebook's only working USB 2 port which is on the right side of your notebook as shown in chapter 2, page 18 of your notebook's service manual, because if you haven't installed any other drivers, the USB 3 ports aren't working.

You need this wireless driver for your model notebook:

 

Driver - HP Pavilion m6-1084ca Entertainment Notebook PC | HP® Customer Support

 

To install the USB3 and SMBus controller driver, you need to download and install the W7 64-bit chipset drivers from the AMD website.

 

Select the 1st driver file listed under the W7 64 bit driver section at the link below.

 

870 Drivers & Support | AMD

 

If there are any other drivers you need, use the W7 drivers and software from the model at the link below.

 

Do not use any of the BIOS or firmware files.
