Intel R Network adaptor not present on this computer
Hi All
So I have an odd problem. I recently had to reformat my computer because it somehow lost one of my devices. My computer came with Windows 7 Home Basic pre installed so I didn't get and installation discs. After a whole lot of trying everything I decided to just go buy installation discs for Windows 7 Professional. PS: I did not get a drivers and utilities disc with it. I tried to connect to the internet but it came up with an error saying I had no drivers installed. So I downloaded WinPRO32 and tried to install it. It then told me that I have no IntelR adapter on the computer. I have looked everywhere I can think of, including trying to ghost it from another computer. My System Information says that my adapter name is WAN Miniport (SSTP), no type listed and it says that it is installed. I have no idea what motherboard I have because everything I've tried just says HP 650 Notebook PC. The driver that Sys Info says I have is rassstp.sys (6.1.7600.16385). Apparently it is not working. So how do I fix this? Please remember I cannot connect to the internet so telling me to use a driver scan or whatever is not going to work. I need a driver that can be downloaded onto a USB and installed without connecting to the net.
