I reinstalled windows on a new machine and the drivers are not present for the product network card.
Download and run the Intel® Chipset Software Installation Utility so Windows* properly recognizes the SMBus controller. Note SMBus is the System Management Bus used in personal computers and servers for low-speed, system management communications.
When in device manager all I get is the question mark and I am unable to figure out the actual name of the vendor or model of the card. This is making my search to find the correct driver hard.
Anyone know how I to find out more about the hardware that does not have drivers?

Use PCI database (online website)
- go to the device manager
- open the properties of the unknown device
- click on
details → Hardware IDs
- extract the vendor ID and the device ID like shown in the screenshot
- search on the PCI database for the vender and database ID.
The database is regularly updated by users. Scroll down Intel's page as an example.
The results will show a driver name which can be googled

Use Unknown Devices (portable offline tool)
The portable tool even shows old drivers which are normally only visible if you type
SET DEVMGR_SHOW_NONPRESENT_DEVICES=1
in an elevated CMD prompt before opening the device manager.Use DriverIdentifier (offline tool with online database)
Install it or extract it with UniExtract if you need a portable version. It will scan your drivers and compare them with its online database.
Think it may be an issue with the jack because sometimes it will work only after successfully using headphones and quickly switching over to Aux connection or half inserting the plug. Alcatel one touch serial number. If it does work it seems to be in MONO with low volume (ring and tip may be shorting) but not on headphones. Same here with a new POP7 android 6.0.1, I`m still working on a solution.

I needed the sound and video drivers for a unknown motherboard of a computer I was fixing and I found a solution here: http://www.kmbytes.com/blog/2014/07/23/how-to-check-motherboard-drivers/
It is a little program that has to be installed and couple of button clicks. Worked like a charm for me. Cheers!

I've just finished downgrading my aunt's laptop from windows 8 to windows 7 Pro 64bit (she was finding it really difficult to work with windows 8) but it seems that a few of the drivers did not make it through instillation. I've already browsed through the drivers available for this model but the ones I need are not there. I spoke with customer support and she said that it's pretty much trial and error..but I was hoping you or someone else might know the right ones to use.
These are the drivers I need:
Ethernet Controller
Bluetooth Controller
Network Controller
PCI Device
Sm Bus Controller
laptop:
HP 2000-2C12NR
I have less than 3 hrs to have it ready for her so I greatly appreciate any help you or anyone else provide!
Thanks in advance,

*UPDATE*
So, I've found and installed the drivers for Bluetooth, Network, and PCI (YAY!!), but the Ethernet (Lan) drivers I tried didn't work. And I've yet to find the correct SMBus controller.
