The same model ThinkPad can have different types of network, video and audio drivers and unless you know exactly which one is installed in your ThinkPad, you need to download all the drivers and install each driver until you find the right driver.

Networking
TheN100 has the Intel 3945 A/B/G wireless card and Realtek Ethernet card.It also has a modem for those still using dial-up. Wireless/Bluetoothcan be turned on or off using a switch on the front of the notebook.For the most part the wireless card worked well. I was having someproblems when I first got it, but I uninstalled Norton and it workedbetter.

Afterthat, I did have the occasional drop-out, but if I disconnected andthen reconnected it would work. I took it to my neighbors about 100feet away. It saw the network, but failed to connect.
The N100also has Bluetooth 2.0 with support for Bluetooth Audio. My KensingtonBluetooth Pocket mouse worked well. I don't have any Bluetoothheadphones so I could not test that. My only thought on it is morebatteries to carry around.

find out what kind of device it is and look it up on google.

go to device manager, and with luck you should find a more specific name.

What's the manufacturer or brand name?

my audio driver software is not working till now .

Check the Power Adapter and Outlet: Ensure that the AC power adapter is securely connected to both your laptop and a functional power outlet. If your laptop has an AC power indicator light, make sure it's illuminated. If not, try a different wall outlet (avoid using a power bar) . Battery Charge Stops at 60%: If your battery charge stops at 55%-60% and shows a "plugged in, not charging" message, it might be due to a power management setting. Some Lenovo laptops have a feature that limits battery charging to extend battery life. To disable this: For models with Lenovo Energy Management, Lenovo Power Manager, OneKey Optimizer, Lenovo Settings, or Lenovo Vantage: Check if "Conservation Mode" is turned on. If so, turn it off. If the issue persists, try updating your laptop's BIOS: Go to the Lenovo support website, download the latest BIOS for your model, and install it. Reboot your PC and check if the problem is resolved. Hard Reset: Sometimes a hard reset can help resolve charging issues: Shut down your computer. Remove the battery (if detachable). Hold down the power button for 30 seconds (with the battery removed). Reattach the battery, plug in the AC adapter, and turn on the computer. The battery should start charging . If these steps don't solve the problem, there might be other causes.

In that case I would go onto the Lenovo web site and update the drivers. Never download drivers from other sources!

Firstly, try turning over your Bluetooth mouse and find the power switch. Make sure it's turned to ON. You should see the optical light turn on (usually red). Place the mouse back flat on your mouse pad. On your Chromebook, select the lower right corner of the taskbar. In the window that pops up, select the Bluetooth icon. If the Bluetooth status is currently off, enable the toggle switch to enable Bluetooth. Once enabled, you'll see a scanning status as your Chromebook looks for active, nearby Bluetooth devices. When your wireless mouse appears, you can select it to pair and connect to it. Once your Chromebook has made its connection with your Bluetooth wireless mouse, you'll notice the mouse pointer moving when you move your mouse

Repeatedly tap the F1 key when the Lenovo, ThinkPad, ThinkStation, or ThinkCentre logo appears, The computer may beep once to indicate that it will boot to BIOS. How to Enable Boot device List F12 Option The following example shows a system that has an option to enable or disable the Boot device List F12 Option. Go into the BIOS to enable Boot device List F12 Option (option is usually under the Startup tab).
