Probably not. The 3970 is an older model (started out when Windows 98 was still around), and HP is apparently not going to develop a driver for Windows 7 for that reason.

I know that isn't what you'd like to hear ;-) but I hope it's helpful.

    I just powered up an old HP3970, plugged it into a Windows 7 Dell and it was recognized automatically and drivers were installed automatically. Just like old Windows 98 plug and play promises.

    Very interesting. When I last checked on this item, HP did not list a Windows 7 compatible driver for the machine, and it was on the EOL list.

SIIG (JU-P50212) USB 2.0 Network Adapter

If you did a fresh install of Windows 7, make sure you install Windows 7 SP1.

A lot of Windows 7 drivers were not included in the original release.
http://windows.microsoft.com/installwindows7sp1

The manufacturer does not list a specific driver for this card( although it does list it as being Windows 7 compatable) so likely you will find it by updating Windows 7.

Vga dell insprion n5110 for windows 7

Hi,
VGA Drivers for Dell Inspiron n5110 (Windows 7, 64 Bit) are available at Dell Official Support.
Please visit the above link and download/ install the required drivers according to the Graphic Chip you have on your laptop (e.g. Intel, AMD, nVIDIA ). If you don't know what graphic card you have on your PC, you may try all three. Another easier and convenient way is to find the drivers using service tag. In this way Dell Support would automatically suggest the correct drivers. Also, you may use windows update to update the drivers. Open device manager and right click the VGA and choose update drivers automatically.
Note that you must have Windows 7, 64-Bit version/ Edition

Hope it helps! Good Luck! Thanks for using Fixya!

Drivers for windows 7

You should not need drivers for windows 7 as far as the camera is concerned, what you need to do is update the drivers or get updated video editing software. If you are using a analog device to input video, many times you can get the updated drivers from the company that made it.

Can i install windows 7 on hp 530 core duo

Yes, you can install Windows 7 on Hp 530 series Notebook.But HP doesn't release any drivers for your notebook for Windows 7.

You install Windows 7 and try to install drivers which are meant for Windows Vista.

If you are trying to install Windows 7 Ultimate or bussiness edition then try to install Windows vista bussiness driver (32-bit).

you can download the driver from the link below

http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodNameId=3375995&prodTypeId=321957&prodSeriesId=3375953&swLang=8&taskId=135&swEnvOID=2096

If you are trying to install Windows 7 Home edition then try to install Windows vista Home driver (32-bit).

you can download the driver from the link below

http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodNameId=3375995&prodTypeId=321957&prodSeriesId=3375953&swLang=8&taskId=135&swEnvOID=2094

Remember to check whether the Windows 7 is 32 bit not 64 bit version.

Most probably all the drivers will work fine as 90% of the drivers which are meant for windows Vista works fine with windows 7.

Even if you have miss out some drivers or not able to install,you can download "Driver Genius Pro" using the link below

http://hotfile.com/dl/9305335/2e7a110/29Genius.rar.html

It's full version and you will be able to update or download the lastest drivers from the manufacturer sites directly using that software.

Hope you enjoy Windows 7.
