How to Restore Missing Drivers After Upgrading to Windows 11

Select Language:

If you’ve been struggling to find the correct drivers for your notebook, you’re not alone. Many users face challenges because the drivers on the support page might not always align with their specific hardware identifiers. Fortunately, there’s a way to get the drivers you need easily. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you install the drivers for your device manually.

Step 1: Download Necessary Driver Files
I’ve prepared two zipped files that contain the drivers you need. You can find these files organized by the last four characters of your device’s hardware IDs. Make sure to download and unzip them into separate folders on your computer.

Step 2: Access the Device Manager
To start the installation process, you’ll need to open the Device Manager. You can do this by searching for "Device Manager" in the Windows search bar.

Step 3: Locate the Device
In the Device Manager, look for the device with the hardware ID labeled ACPI\VEN_HPIC&DEV_0003. Once you find it, right-click on the device and select "Properties."

Step 4: Update the Driver
Click on the "Driver" tab and then click on "Update Driver." When prompted, select the option "Browse my computer for drivers."

Step 5: Choose the Correct Folder
Now, navigate to the folder where you extracted the 0003 driver files. Be sure to check the box that says “Include subfolders.” After that, click "Next," and the driver should begin to install.

Step 6: Repeat for Other Devices
You will need to follow the same process for any additional devices, such as the ones with identifiers 54C6 and 54E8. This will help ensure all your ACPI devices are properly set up.

Step 7: Install Additional Drivers
Here are links to a couple of specific drivers that you might also need:

For the Intel Dynamic Tuning Processor Participant Driver, download it here.
For the Synaptics Fingerprint Sensor Driver, you can find it here.

After installing the drivers provided in the zipped files and those linked above, check your Device Manager again. If there are still devices needing drivers, let me know, and I’ll help you track them down.

Following these steps should get your notebook up and running smoothly with the correct drivers. Remember, driver installations may sometimes require a little patience, but with this guide, you should be well on your way!
