    Good morning

    I decided to wipe my old windows and get rid of all old shit on my computer so I reinstalled my windows , but now I do not have any network drivers and cannot connect to the Internet

    Did not get any driver cd or such when buying it

    So basically I want to be able to connect , any help will be appreciated.

    Hello Networkproblem,

    You'll need to get your network drivers from this SAMSUNG support website for your laptop using another PC or device, then transfer it to the Samsung Laptop using a USB Thumbdrive or an external HDD.

    Hope that helps!

    Hi,
    I just tried the exact same thing & surprise surprise, no drivers recognised by 7.
    Tried to down load drivers from Samsung but only get part zip files & of course no zip program in 7 so tried to install zip program, part file needs internet to complete - what the **** were these numpties thinking when they did this, if you need a network card driver what is the point of giving part file then requiring internet connection to complete???????
    Can anyone point me to a site where I can get a complete driver file for the network card or wifi??
    Many thanks,
    Frustrated!! :)

    There are loads of different drivers.
    Depends on what the OEM built into your system.
    Need to know the pci/ven info from here, (see screenshot)

    Problem is until you have them installed you can't find out what they are, just that you have a few items which are not installed.
    Managed it eventually by downloading "http://drivers.softpedia.com/get/NETWORK-CARD/INTEL/Samsung-NP300V5A-A06US-Intel-WLAN-Driver-14113-for-Windows-7-64-bit.shtml", this got my wifi working so now I can start hunting for all the other drivers I need.
    Many thanks! :)
