    The drivers you require are listed in the URL you posted under Network. Need to establish if you have Intel or Broadcom on your board.

    If the current drivers do not work it maybe because they have been updated for SP3 - look at the previous drivers.

    In the past HP have supplied "proprietary" drivers. The main drivers are supplied with the machine when you buy it, the drivers at their website are only updates and not the original drivers. To get the original drivers, you may need to purchase the drivers disk from HP. Read through the manual/User Guide or search at their website for how reinstall Windows and the drivers.

    Have you installed the Intel Chipset Support for Windows? If those won't install, the drivers are probably proprietary.
