jaclaz Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 It seems like that PC was shipped with Vista (and ONLY Vista is supported on it).See here:http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/product...ng=en&cc=iehttp://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/documen...043〈=enI guess, that your best option is to use on it a "hardware" identifier, like SIW:http://www.gtopala.com/or a similar app, then search for the needed drivers from the "real" manufacturer, like Realtek, 3com, or whatever.jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaclaz Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 surely there is another way that people can guide me..!!!i.e direct links to downloadiing the hardware..?Sure , if you run a hardware detecting program and post the exact kind of hardware that PC has, someone may be able to provide you publicly available links to download the software.The currently available technology prevents from actually downloading hardware at the moment. ....something connected to pieces of not properly compressed pieces of silicon jamming into cable bends.... Otherways you will have to wait for these three things to happen concurrently:another user of the board has that exactly same hardwarethe same user is willing to help youthe same user knows where to download the appropriate drivers from...at an approximate probability level of (120504-2)=120502 to one against. jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
