The exact name of my laptop is Compaq Presario 2100 and the product number is DA728AV. I installed Windows 7 RC today and lost my Ethernet Controller and my Audio Controller too. Where can I recover those from?

Thank you for your link on the LAN-Express 802.11b Wireless LAN Adapter Driver for Windows XP, but my Compaq Presario 2100 laptop doesn't have wireless adapter but a National Semiconductor Fast Ethernet adapter DP83815. After installing Windows 7 RC (released last Tuesday) this did not recognized either the ethernet adapter or the ALi M5451 PCI audio controller. So I have a problem of finding the right drivers for both devices. Any hints?

Sorry fot this mistake.

The XP driver for the National Semiconductor Fast Ethernet adapter DP83815 is here http://h10025.www1.hp.com/...

Windws Seven is still a Beta version I baven't found the Drivers u r seaching for. May be they don't yet have been created.

I found a driver that worked fine with the Windows 7 RC I had installed on my laptop.
Instead of looking for a ethernet adapter driver for the Compaq Presario 2100, I looked for a driver for the device, a National Semiconductor Fast PCI Ethernet Adapter, which I had identified first by using a driver-guide scanner on a similar laptop of a friend.
That way I identified a DP83815 ethernet adapter and then I went to the driverguide.com site and downloaded the driver EN-559TXnew.zip, which worked fine and could start to connect to the internet right away.
Same procedure I used to get a driver for the audio device, a ALi M5451 PCI AC-Link controller, and sound got back to the laptop.
Thank you for your help.

Hi Oj,
I followed your procedure, but I can't find any DP83815 driver for windows 7 in driverguide, nor a EN-559TXnew.zip file anywhere. All drivers support stops to XP.
Could you please post a direct link or something to download it?

I focused on NIC, I didn't even look for ALi M5451. Maybe this research gives the same result.
Thanks.
