Missing drivers for network adapter?
I reinstalled windows on my laptop after it got wiped and now it won't connect to the internet at all. When i troubleshoot the problem it says:
"Install a driver for your network adapter
Windows did not detect a properly installed network adapter. If you have a network adapter, you will need to re-install the driver."
"Windows could not find a driver for your network adapter."
After troubleshooting the hardware, the problems were:
"unknown device doesn't have a driver
Universal Serial Bus (USB) Controller doesn't have a driver
PCI Device desn't have a driver
Network Controller doesn't have a driver
SM Bus Controller doesn't have a driver
PCI Simple Communications Controller doesn't have a driver
uknown device doesn't have a driver
Hardware changes might not have been detected"
I'm not sure what I should do from this point since I can't connect to the internet. I have an HP Pavilion dv7 that runs Windows 7 64bit. Please help!
