Download drivers for Windows 7 upgrade

First of all, let me tell you this. I have had a Lenovo computer for several years now and it has worked perfectly. Therefore I have had no need to be a forum member. Even so, since the computer is working fine, I feel I must bite the bullet and install Windows 7. Being retired on a small pension, I cannot afford to buy a new computer. Having spent hours in the internet searching on how to upgrade to windows 7, I am more confused than ever. I would like to know how I can, preferably with one click, how I can install the drivers required for W7. I would also like to know if I install them now, will my computer run on the new drivers before I upgrade to W7.
I also have a problem determining what type of computer I have. I have seen lists like 3000 series, idea centre, PC 100 series etc etc. Can you please tell me what type of computer it is? The only help I can offer is that it is a XXXXX.

Hi bussoboy,
Adding to sarbin's instructions, you should probably run the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor from MS .  That will show you what is compatible and what is not.

  • Download drivers for Windows 7?

    Hi. I have a mid-late 2012 13'' MacBook Pro. I installed succesfully windows 7 via Bootcamp, but now that I'm trying to download the drivers for windows 7 (via Bootcamp Manager) I'm getting a "Can't install Windows Support Software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server.". Is there any way I can download the drivers?
    Wht I REALLY need is a wifi driver, a sound driver and a video card driver. Because I got windows 7 exclusively to have some gaming. :l
    Help please.

    Trying using the links on this site: http://www.cafe-encounter.net/p682/download-bootcamp-drivers
    Im downloading one at the moment and hopefully they should be the correct ones.

  • Drivers for windows 10 upgrade

    Greetings,To who might be able to help. I have a Satilite c855d-s5106 ,Pscbqu-0060023, Zc29745q.... i want to upgrade to windows 10 and have been checking the support page for any updates for drivers or software to avoid any problems when i do upgrade. today I seen a page for windows 10 drivers however I'm not sure if they are for all computers or just for those who have recently upgraded,  are any of these for my machine? can you shed some light on this? Thanks in advance

    . I've been running Windows 10 for 10 months as a tester and my machine is not supported for Windows 10 either. Advice, please:     I have a L855S which has graphics and display issues and unable to find a driver.   Based on this forum and other forums,  quite a few have the same issue.  Which machine are you running W10  ? With the final RTM,  you have no issues with slow startup, graphics/display, etc  ?     Were you required to download drivers from Intel or Nvidia  ?  Thanks  !

  • Where can i download drivers for windows 7

    I own a Pavilion dv6910ea which I bought august 2008. It is currently running on windows vista. But I have got a authentic copy of windows 7 proffesional and want to install it on my laptop. But I cant seem to find and drivers. Can I still use the vista drivers? Thank in advance!

    You could try Vista drivers but be aware some may work and some may not. Some drivers work natively and some may work in compatability mode.
    http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/316-compatibility-mode.html
    As always YMMV. If your uncomfortable doing this then wait until the official Win 7 drivers are published by HP and for sure make sure you backup any critical data on your machine prior to experimenting.

  • Satellite L300-1AM - Where can I get drivers for Windows 7?

    How in the title
    From where can I download drivers for Windows 7 RTM (32bit) for Toshiba Satellite L300-1AM? Is it possible anyway? I see on the website only drivers for Vista/XP/OS independent.
    Which of them are compability with Win7?
    Thanks for your help.

    Hi
    >I see on the website only drivers for Vista/XP/OS independent.
    >Which of them are compability with Win7?
    The drivers for Windows Vista are compatible to Windows 7 and most of them work on Windows 7.
    So you can try these drivers.
    But drivers especially for Windows 7 you will not find at the moment because Windows 7 isnt on the market as yet. You have to wait until the official release because some days or weeks later normally the drivers support starts.

  • How to download macbook pro (mid 2010) drivers for windows 7, without the included DVD (lost) ?

    Hello everyone,
    I am facing a problem with bootcamp on my Macbook pro 15" (Mid 2010, running Mos OS 10.6.6).
    I have successfully installed windows 7 via Bootcamp, but I lost the Drivers DVD furnished by Apple.
    I tried to download these using Bootcamp (v3.0.4), but bootcamp won't let me save it, i get this error :
    "the windows support software could not be saved to the selected folder"
    An Apple support article has been made for this problem ( http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3648 ), but it doesn't solve the problem in my case because I lost the furnished DVD.
    So here I am, struck on this drivers issue...
    So, my question is :
    How to download macbook pro (mid 2010) drivers for windows 7, without the included DVD (lost) ?
    Thank you for your help !
    Regards

    Aw, and I forgot, being in Thailand, they do not sell the installation DVD.

  • How do I download 32bit Drivers for Windows 7 on Bootcamp for OSX 10.8.1?

    Here is the deal,
    I am a computer technician for a library and I am installing Windows 7 on four brand new Apple MiniMacs with OSX 10.8.1 on them (don't ask). The Mac came with no install Disks and the Bootcamp Assistant only downloads 64bit drivers for windows. I am installing Windows 7 32bit on them and I need the drivers. How can I get them? Can somebody assist me please?

    Buy a Windows machine or an older Mac if you wish to use 32bit Windows. (what are you going to do when MS quit supporting 32bit systems?)

  • Boot Camp drivers for windows (download)

    I am trying to instal windows 7 on my MacBook Pro thru Boot Camp. Does anyone know where I can download the Boot Camp drivers for windows. I can't find them on the apple website and I don't have my Mac OS X instal DVD with me.
    Thank you

    Only if you don't mind a Windows system lacking most features and thus beaing nearly unuseable.
    Applying the appropriate drivers for hardware support is a must for all operating systems.

  • Drivers for Windows Vista 64-bit on Satellite L300-1AM

    When I can get drivers for Windows Vista 64-bit? Or I need to intall 32-bit drivers on my 64-bit Vista operating system?
    Please links ;)

    [Toshiba - Download Drivers|http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp]
    In the Drivers Search Page (the link above) select these filters:
    _Product type:_ +Notebook+
    _Family:_ +Satellite+
    _Product Series:_ +Satellite A Series+ (don't try the L series if you want to find anything useful)
    _Operating System:_ +Windows Vista 64 Bit+
    _Country:_ +World Wide+ (you have to select this in order to get rid of those multiple country options available for the modem)
    _Language:_ +English+ (obviously)
    Don't modify any other filter. The results will be about 100 (maybe more, but the site is set to show up to 100 results).
    Advices:
    1. Download the latest versions only (there's no point in downloading multiple versions of the same driver, yet they will be shown in the search results area)
    2. Download what's specific to your laptop only (network - RealTek, both wired and wireless; chipset and graphics - Intel; modem - Toshiba; webcam - Chicony; there's no point in downloading anything from otehr vendors - except maybe the touchpad, but Windows can handle it properly without aditional drivers)
    3. Don't download any BIOS or Firmware file; they might not be for your notebook, and installing the wrong ones is a sure path to screwing up your notebook (and losing the warranty); if you need them upgraded, go to the download page for your specific model, Windows XP or Windows Vista 32 Bit drivers (since they are OS independent anyway)
    Toshiba utilities (DVD Player, ConfigFree, etc.) should be OK too (again, download the latest version only).
    BTW, I own 2 Toshiba notebooks (L300-1AM and L300-1AN; quite similar, the differences are in HDD and CPU only) and I had the same problem: no 64-bit drivers (and the same "support"). Quite strange the idea that Toshiba is testing these 64-bit drivers before releasing them (according to a previous post), since the same drivers, for the very same chipsets - but installed on other models - are available. Windows Vista 64-bit is out on the market for nearly 2 years now, the production of these models has already been stopped (and I assume they have not been produced during one night only :) ), yet they had no time to test the drivers... High-class support from Toshiba!

  • Need drivers for Windows XP / Satellite A210-1AO (PSAELE)

    Hello!
    I want to install Windows XP on my notebook. I tried to find suitable drivers for my model on http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/ and found only 6 (3 firmware upgrades + 1 BIOS upgrade + WLAN + Bluetooth Stack). Where I can find other drivers?
    I also tried to found drivers for A100 series - there are much for it. Maybe I can download drivers for other A-model and install them on A210-1AO?
    Thanks

    Hi
    More XP drivers are not available for this A210 PSAELE series.
    But dont give up buddy
    Some other A210 models were equipped with the same devices and therefore the XP drivers released for other notebooks could run on your A210.
    I think you should simply try to reinstall some drivers and should test it

  • HP drivers for Windows 8

    Can't get drivers to load on to computer.  I use the HP website to download drivers for Photosmart 2575 ALL-IN-ONE.  It spends 30 minutes downloading a majority of it, then when I come back is says "pause".  I wait and wait.  The "Pause" never goes away.  I have tried it numerous times.  I am attempting the 64 bit download for Windows 8 OS.   Why won't it finish installing the download?   My computer is new and works fine.

    Forget captain unhelpful there.  Just because MS is using it's dwindling weight to flog people to Win8 because you'll eat what they feed you doesn't mean you can't cook your own food with flavours you enjoy.
