HP nx9110 Windows 7

[sclark_74]

Hi Joe,
This thread is quite old, the link you posted seems to no longer be valid. I'm having trouble with windows 7 on the nx9110. Are you still using it and are you able to direct me to the drivers?

If anyone else jumps on this....

HP's support site only has drivers for 2000 & XP

I'm looking for AC'97 audio, ATI Radeon Mobility 9000 IGP (the windows 7 monitor resolution with the generic driver is quite low), and a way to turn on the wireless adaptor.

1. ATI driver... http://game.amd.com/us-en/drivers_catalyst.aspx

2. AC'97 driver... http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsCheck.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=23&PFid=23&Level=4&Conn=3&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false

3. For the wireless adapter, open your Device Manager > Network adapters
What controller is listed?

Thanks for the reply Gandalf,

I gave up on Windows 7 for a while and loaded on OpenSUSE & Ubuntu which both also have trouble with the nx9110's wireless adaptor. It is a Broadcom BCM4303 802.11b

I'll have one more go with the drivers you suggested.

If they don't work I'll have to roll back to XP.

Your HP Compaq nx9110 Notebook PC may not support Windows 7 compatibility.

just use a driver installer program, works always with no issues.
used it for a pc multiple times from the vista times but put on windows 7.
i don`t get people searching there asses off for the drivers on the website of there pc brand.
the chances are not big you`re gonna find them on there.
stop wasting time and give it a try with a known driver installer.
