Hi From Wv!

I'm starting classes in 3 weeks so I installed windows 7 on my old pavilion 5400 laptop .Now the 'other devices' drivers are missing so I can't get online. If I can't get online I''ll have to reinstall XP. I figured this would be the best place to look for answers!Can you help please?Thanks!

 

Hi, and Welcome to MajorGeeks.
Do you have descriptions of the other devices?

 

Hi Eldon thanks you for any help you can give me. My network adapter is one of 4 'other devices' listed as missing under device manager in control panel. They have Yellow triangles out beside of them.I was using a Pavilion ze5478cl laptop with xp but I installed windows 7 .Until I switched to 7 I was able to get on the internet and didn't have any issues.Perhaps there is a program I can download and put on my laptop that'll find the drivers descriptions for me?I downloaded one program but it was pointless.It needed to be online to perform the search.

Your laptop is listed third from the bottom.
