XP Drivers ofr Laptop

[huhndiddy15]

I have an HP dv9000 laptop and was wondering where I could go to download the drivers for it. The hard drive went bad on it and I never made a backup CD with the drivers on it. I installed the new hard drive and used an older XP installation disk, the only problem with this is that none of the HP drivers are installed and the laptop does not recognize when I plug in an ethernet cord and doesn't seem to know it has a wireless card. How do I get it to recognize these so I can get on the internet with it?

go to www.hp.com

Then find out where to download drivers, and download them.

If you can't find them there, which is unlikely, but possible - find out which equipment you need drivers for and open Google. Find what equipment you have from Device Manager.

Start --> My Computer (right click) --> Properties --> Hardware tab --> Device Manager

Look under all the usual stuff such as Display Adapters, DVD/CD Drives, Network Adapters and anything else that doesn't work on your computer.
