Product: HP ProBook 450 G1
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

I have a HP ProBook 450 G1 - manufactured in 2015.

For various reason, I had to reinstall Win7 full from a retail disk.

Once Windows started - Device manager shows drivers missing for

Ethernet Controller

Network Controller

PCI Device

PCI Simple Communications Controller

Universal Serial Bus (USB) Controller

Unknown device

Here is my issue - not quite sure WHAT drivers I need to install.  Big issue - is how to install them on the laptop since I have no network and all USB ports do NOT work.

My thoughts are to download the drives using another computer - write them to a CD/DVD - ad the install them since the DVD reader works.

 

Please let me know what drivers are needed - Serial Number - [personal information removed] - and is there another way to install them besides creating a cd/dvd.

 

Thanks
