Hi,
I have tried every driver for my HP for Windows 8. Yes, I am trying to install Windows 7 on the machine. Windows 8 has given me so many nightmares of locking up. Have already reset the PC 6 times. It's time to put 7 on here. But, does anyone have any knowledge of where to find LAN drivers and such? It does have the Atheros. I have tried 4 on the HP site with no luck. Windows doesn't even pick them up.
Help! Thanks,
Andy

Hi:
If you need the rest of the W7 x64 drivers for your model, you need to do the following:
1. Install the AMD chipset driver and reboot. First download listed is what you need.
2. Then all of the W7 x64 drivers (DO NOT USE BIOS FILES) from this related model should work on yours.
It is interesting to note that the Atheros wireless driver is not among those listed on the above link.

I know this is an old thread but I JUST downgraded from Windows 8 x64 > Windows 7 Ulitmate x64. I have followed the instructions posted above, ran the AMD installer and it seems to have put some AMD Video drivers & software. I also have WiFi chip working but there are several drivers missing and this biggest issue that has arrised is that my USB mouse is not recognised by the PC, no chime or any indication that it's plugged in. It is a wireless Logitech USB mouse if that helps. Also to note, I have plugged in and tested my USB external HDD and that works perfectly.
What drivers are not installed / working properly (From Device Manager)
Ethernet Controller (Haven't tested Ethernet Port but I'd assume that's not working)
SM Bus Controller
Universal Seriel Bus (USB)
Universal Seriel Bus (USB)
For whatever reason USB is listed twice. Any help or suggestions in this matter would GREATLY be appreciated. Thanks!

Hi:
If you have the subject model (g7-2243us)...
You need to first install the AMD chipset drivers and reboot. Those will install the smbus and usb 3 controllers.
You want the first file listed on the webpage.

I have a HP Pavilion G7 Notebook computer and when I use ubuntu it starts up fine, and then when I get in I can't connect to wifi. I know the problem because it says something like 'disconnected by hardware switch.' I tried to turn on my hardware switch but it doesn't want to turn on (it is a button that is supposed to shine a blue light to show that it is on, but it shines a orange light which means it is off).

You can try using the following command in terminal; rfkill unblock wifi. After that turn off your wifi switch and then back on. If that doesn't work, go to the network setting in the upper right corner of your screen with the notification icons. unenable the networking and do the command 'rfkill unblock wifi', after that renable the networking.
Sir try following this link. Your Wifi has probably been blacklisted by Ubuntu. I am not sure why they allow this, but they have given us the solution. See here for more details.

Then, type into terminal:
(you may want to copy this) and see if the term blacklist bcm43xx is thereif it is, type
put a # in front of the line: blacklist bcm43xxthen save the file (I was getting error messages in the terminal about not being able to save, but it actually did save properly).reboot 'End of procedure'Before (not Ubuntu 11.04), if I wanted to connect wireless, I just went to the icon at the upper side of the screen, click, showed ALL the wireless network available, and done.
