    Hello All

    I'm new to this forum and I have a few problems that need sorting!!!
    I have a Pavillion zt3120EA which I brought in 2004!! I know its old but it does me. And cost £1200 then!!
    However, the laptop was getting to be unstable and I have now upgraded to Windows 7 and of course NOTHING works.
    These are my problems:
    1. Intel (R) 82855PM Processor to AGP controller - 3341
    2. Multimedia Audio Controller
    3. Network Controller
    4. There are others but my main issue is getting on line to download all these drivers.
    Any help in the right direction would be very much appreciated.
    Regards
    Cliff

    Try this for an audio driver (link in the first post), this for Intel issues.

    As for the Wi-Fi it's either a Broadcom chip or Intel one (2100 or 2200).
    Check out Vista drivers for Intel 2100 and 2200 from here and these Broadcom drivers.

    That's as much as I can help not knowing the exact hardware in question.

    Something you can try is download the drivers on a different computer and then copy them to a USB memory stick and plug that into your laptop.

    If you decide to go back to Windows XP, you can use these drivers.
