Driver issue after Windows 10 clean install

[BClar22]

Hi all. I have recently completed a clean install on an old gaming laptop upgrading from XP to Windows 10. Unfortunately, I am having issues with my Network Adapters - 'Intel (R) PRO 1000 PL Network Connection' and 'Intel (R) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network'. I am assuming this is an issue with the drivers as the ones still loaded are probably from the XP version. I attempted to run the ProWin32 program with no luck. Could someone please tell me which drivers I require to hopefully attempt a manual install? Thanks in advance...

The Ethernet PHY in this laptop has long been discontinued and has not been supported since Windows XP. Absolutely no support for its use with Windows 10 is provided by Intel or Microsoft.

This Wireless card has also been discontinued and Intel does not support it on Windows 10. Microsoft does, however, include a driver for this card in the Windows 10 installation image and it should get installed automatically. Understand that there is no support for this driver and no subsequent updates will be forthcoming. Microsoft could also remove support for this driver at any time.

Sorry, reality bites.
