Help finding drivers after windows 7 clean install
08-15-2016 03:43 PM
I have an older model Pavilion laptop that was working just fine until I had problems with windows 10 anniversary update and had to do a clean install back to windows 7 after replacing the hard drive. I need all the drivers, but can't locate on HP website as it does not recognize my laptop model number. Can someone give me a hand. Thanks

REO thank you so much for providing that link. I see all the drivers are for Vista OS. Will I be able to load those on the PC after installing windows 7 or do I need to install Vista?

Change the OS to W7 then click on the CHANGE tab.
It will change it to W7.
