Drivers for Windows 7?

Originally published October 14, 2011

Q


I just did a OS re-installation(update rather). I got rid of my old software, Windows XP professional, and upgraded to Windows 7 Professional. I entered the product key and the installation finished soon after. I forget how the whole process went.

Anyways, now I have to find drivers for Windows 7 professional (I mean the sound driver, network driver, etc.) Seeing as how I don’t have the driver to my wireless adapter, I can’t connect to the internet through that computer, so I can’t use the “auto driver finding software” I keep coming across on the internet. It also prevents me from using the “update driver” option in device manager.

I’m obviously using a different computer right now. So… Is there a place I can go to download the drivers with this computer to put on the other computer?

****Also note that I do not have an Ethernet wire for wired internet. If it is a solution to my problem, I can go get one. But last time I did a OS installation, Windows wouldn’t even recognize I had the Ethernet connection from the modem, even though the same wire worked with my friend’s computer. I also do not mind if I have to re-install windows 7 professional.

The DS device driver downloads page is the best way to find windows 7 device driver downloads. Speccy, also found on that page, will also tell you how to find the correct model numbers for your devices and install these device drivers.

Also try using the DS”What are device drivers? A quick Windows device driver download and installation guide.
