Hello everyone. I've recently acquired a laptop whose model is mentioned in the subject. Everything was swimming fine until I installed Windows 10 (didn't want to use 11), and found out that Intel has removed the drivers section altogether from their website. The download center application only provides drivers for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and the NVIDIA GPU.
So, where do I get the rest of the drivers from?
P.S., I show the current location as there was nowhere else relevant.

Yea, Intel discontinued the QC laptop kits and, as they often do (to thoroughly abandon their customers), yanked all of the QC-specific drivers.
So, I have a share that includes the set of drivers that I have in my archive for QC. They may not be the latest in all cases (I've tried to keep it up to date), but it should be a good starting point. Here is the link: LAPQC71x Drivers. The letter(s) at the beginning of the subfolder names indicate which versions of the laptop are pertinent. In your case, you want all subfolders that have a 'B' (as in LAPQC71B).
Now, this driver set didn't include Graphics, WiFi or Bluetooth; you should use the latest available for these. As of today, latest are:
- Intel HD Graphics: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/776137/intel-7th-10th-gen-processor-graphics-windows.html.
- WiFi: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/19351/intel-wireless-wi-fi-drivers-for-windows-10-and-windows-11.html.
- Bluetooth: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/18649/intel-wireless-bluetooth-drivers-for-windows-10-and-windows-11.html.
Remember always install the Chipset driver package first (followed by a reboot before installing anything else).
Hope this helps,
...S
