Hi. My mate bought one of these laptops 

GOCHI 14.1'' Laptop PC 2 in 1 Touchscreen Laptop N100 Processor(Up to 3.4GHz) 16GB RAM 512GB SSD 360° Foldable Notebook with 2.4/5G Dual Band WiFi Bluetooth 5.0 Type-C 46WH Battery Fingerprint Unlock

 

Manufacturer	‎GOCHI
Series	‎ANL5 YOGA

We wiped the windows 11 and put a fresh install on it. But there are a load of drivers missing and can we hell find a website with the drivers that are needed. If any one could help that would be brilliant.

Hello,

I am unfamiliar with this brand, but saw a model being sold on Amazon at <https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0CTSYRL3J>.

Perhaps you could try leaving a comment asking about drivers and seeing if the seller replies?

Regards,

Sometimes Microsoft's Device Manager can automatically detect and download the necessary drivers. Why not give that a shot if you haven't?

1. Right-click on the Start button
2. Go to Device Manager, you will find all your devices listed here
3. Go to each of them one by one and right-click> Update driver > Search automatically for drivers

Yes i think ill contact amazon regarding the issue or i may try the snappy driver software and down load the 30 odd gig worth of drivers and see if picks any of them up. Thanks for the help. 

Regarding the 2nd comment. Yep tried that. Its deffently intel related even tried the intel driver updater.

So that hasn't worked for years I think they killed it in the Windows 10 2004 update.

They still let you do it, but it doesn't do anything. The new way to do it in Windows 11 is to click on Start / Settings / Windows update / Check for updates, then click on "Advanced options" / Optional updates / Driver Updates.

It still works, it just doesn’t work often because by default WU is checked upon device detection. If something interrupted that or the device was offline at the time, then it will work if a driver is available.

Ever since then, I've had 0% luck. I just wrote it off, having been broken since I think it's Windows 10, 2004. Because before then it worked great, and I had great luck with it.

Just a guess, but before then it probably wasn’t checking WU upon device initialization.
