I have my new laptop and don't have Windows XP drivers for it. I found that it contains the Broadcom BCM4310 chip, but when I install any Broadcom driver my laptop hangup on installing bcm5*.sys driver. Only power-off button make any effect. After reboot the device list (Device Manager) contains Broadcom WLAN adapter, but it is marked as disabled, for some hardware errror!

Also if I disable device before, and install driver - then - all is OK! But when I try to enable it, Windows hang up anyway (no speaker beep, no mouse input, no keyboard input - nothing)

What is the solution?

HP drivers for this model for Windows XP appear to be here: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareList?os=228&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&product=4048288&lang=en. It looks like you need the HP Wireless Assistant driver.

Hi! Thank you for response. Unfortunatelly Wireless assistant - it's only GUI for managing connection. This package don't contain any drivers ! – user30356 Mar 6 '10 at 22:41
