Asus X550LB
August 5th, 2016
for a long while it was running Windows 8.1 then it went crazy
(experienced the locking of the drive issue on this OS)
now i’m shifting back to Windows 7
i can’t find the drivers for windows 7 but i saw this one
http://www.asus.com/Notebooks_Ultrabooks/X550LA/HelpDesk_Download/
most likely they have similar specifications
only differs on the gpu..
no worries on the gpu driver i can get it via nvidia
my question is.. can i install the drivers of ASUS x550LA to my ASUS x550LB laptop?
please help me here.. thanks
Those two computers are exactly the same. The only difference is the video card and the OS that Asus has decided to support.
Windows is so abstracted that it generally doesn't matter if the OEM has official support for a hardware model or not. Microsoft provides the relevant drivers via Windows Update or they can be downloaded from the hardware manufacturer's website directly (like nVidia or Realtek).
But in your case, the X550LA drivers will work for the X550LB since it's the same hardware.
