Hi:

Please post the hardware ID's for the devices that need drivers so I can figure out what driver they need.

Use this guide for how to find the hardware ID for a device.

If you have tried every wifi driver there is, see if installing the HP connection manager software, restart the PC, and see if you can turn of the wifi using the connection manager software controls.

This package provides the HP Connection Manager for the supported notebook running a supported operating system.
