    Hi all,

    Two days ago I bought a Hp notebook and it came without drivers pack.
    I spend a whole day looking for the appropriate driver and I still can't solve my internet connection . I found a thread with link for driver that is exactly right for my model , but it doesn't work. It still says - network adapter missing or it suggests to download the certain drivers from net , but,as I said :) , I don't have internet on the notebook ...
    HP Notebook 255 G
    And this is the first line in my Device manager - PCI\VEN_1022&DEV_780B&SUBSYS_2192103C&REV_3A
    32 bit OS
    Any help here ?

    Thanks in advance

    Well this is not a Wi-Fi card or an Ethernet one - it's an AMD SM Bus Controller driver.
    Install this to get it: AMD Chipset Drivers

    As for the card- as of nor I gave no idea what might that be. Most likely an Atheros but it's only an educated guess. Click "Télécharger" here to download.

    Realtek RTL8188EE 802.11b/g/n Wireless LAN Driver

    Your ethernet is:
