    I recently got a Laptop of my friend and i wanted to put Windows 7 on there but when i installed windows 7 it didnt find the wireless for some reason, I know there is wireless on it because in the past my friend has used wireless but he did not know how to fix my problem, Usually on Windows 7 is finds a driver for you but for some reason i can only use a cable to connect to the internet but i need wireless the laptop is

    HI-Grade M760S

    For some reason i couldnt find this laptop on the internet when i was looking for it to look for a possible driver to download manually and use.

    It would be greatly appreciated if someone could help please.

    You will have to go to the website of the manufacturer of the laptop and download the Vista drivers, if there are not any Windows 7 drivers available. Otherwise, find out what chipset that the wifi card is using, which may be a Realtek, which is the most commonly used one. Find out what chipset first, before just downloading drivers.
