If you have a pop-up blocker enabled, the Update Details window might not open. Windows 10 and Later Servicing Drivers for testing,Windows 10 Anniversary Update and Later Servicing Drivers. See how hard it is to find drivers now? I hate it.īefore, I could have clicked on the revision history tab and found this info out in seconds.

But I couldn't find newer HP notebooks that had a Broadcom driver that had support for the hardware ID you posted.Īs you can see, there is no way I can teach you how to locate newer drivers anymore due to this change. So, I thought to myself, how about going beyond that. I happened to know that there is also a HP 8470p notebook which happened to have the above driver. Now that we can't do that anymore, I have to guess what PC's might have newer drivers. For example on the now defunct business support site, I could have clicked on the link to the sp66445 driver and on that link, there would have been a revision history tab which would have listed every driver that came out before and after sp66445 was released. Now that HP has merged the business and consumer support sites together, I can no longer click on a driver from any HP business class PC and get the revision history. It has recently become a bit harder to find drivers.
