Hello. I am looking for a Driver for Qualcomm Atheros Model QCWB335 for Windows 7(64). (802.11 b/g/n WLAN and Bluetooth(R) [1x]) I tried the HP support system discovery and recommended driver report, it reads incorrect hardware and product. I tried this soulution hoping for backwards compatibility, but it did not work. http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Wireless-Internet-Home-Networking/Driver-for-Qualcomm-Atheros-model-QCWB335/m-p/4073978/highlight/true#M70244 My notebook is an HP Pavilion 17t (f000?)  P/N: J5R51AVI upgraded the BIOS to F.34Windows 7 Ultimate (64)Installed drivers sp67265, sp68433, sp67625, and failed to install the sp66402. Ethernet connection works, WLAN and Bluetooth do not.The WLAN and bluetooth worked fine with Linux Ubuntu 14.04  History of the laptopOn Feb 5th, 2015 ordered from factory:HP Pavilion 17t Windows 7 Professional P/N: J8H36AV with 802.11 b/g/n WLAN and Bluetooth(R) [1x] Received:HP Pavilion 17t Windows 7 Professional P/N: J5R51AV with 802.11 b/g/n WLAN and Bluetooth(R) [1x] Worked great out of the box. Tried to install Ubuntu as a dualboot, and discovered I would need to tweak the Ubuntu install to work with the 4 partitions HP had already set up on the hard disk. Instead, I backed up Windows with the Windows backup, created a bootable recovery disk on to a USB via HP recovery wizard. The HP recovery wizard said the USB recovery disk was a success. I reformatted the hard drive usint Active@ killdisk and installed Linux Ubuntu 14.04 successfully. Everything on the laptop worked, including the WLAN and Bluetooth. Backed up Ubuntu using the Ubuntu backup utility, and also created a clone of the hardrive using Clonezilla live 2.3.2. Attempted to boot from HP Recovery disk on USB and it failed. Tried again, failed. Contacted HP, they graciously sent out recovery disks for free. Only they sent recovery disks for Windows 8.1, so I contacted HP again and they graciously sent recovery disks for Windows 7. Recovery disks would work almost all the way through the Windows installation, giving 3 errors and allowing an install log to be copied. The errors were "chkErrBB.CMD Detect some error during PININST_BBV.", "check c:\system.sav\logs\BurnBootWarn.log.", and "check c:\system.sav\logs\BurnBootMerg.log." Scanning the hardrive showed that the 4 partitions HP factory installs were installed, but the Windows folders were shell folders. HP support had contacted me and suggested I send the laptop in and pay them to install the restore, and I instead purchased Windows 7 Ultimate for a clean install.  Using HP support driver tools, it reports the wrong notebook and suggest drivers for a WLAN radio that I do not have installed on the motherboard.  I updated the BIOS to F.34 and that did not help. I don't know how to extract the driver from the HP driver and utilities recovery disk HP sent me, it is in a file format I do not know how to manipulate. I can connect to the internet using the ethernet cable, just not the WLAN.
