Hp 530 Laptop Drivers For Windows 7 Free Download

I've noticed that in the past couple of weeks, I'm having issues with getting my laptop to sleep when I close the lid. I first noticed the problem because my battery was dying while the laptop was in my bag, but I don't have an exact date to correlate to any software updates.
I had the screen replaced (a second time) a couple months ago, so at first I thought there might be a hardware switch issue, but since it turns the screen off correctly, and works the 2nd time, I no longer think it's hardware-related.
I run all my machines with the powercfg.exe /hibernate off setting. So, I know I'm running sleep settings and not hibernate settings (I do this intentionally to save on SSD space). It shouldn't make difference, but I figured I'd mention it just in case.
As I finished writing this, I realized that I recently had a Windows Update message mentioning that there was now an incompatibility with my Power Management software drivers. Windows can't find new ones when I try to search through the Update window. I've so far been assuming it's been talking about the Lenovo Power Management software, which hasn't been updated since 2015-03-17, while I've only been having the issue since maybe 2015-05-15 at the earliest (AFAIK).
Update: I reinstalled that same version of the LEM software. It fixed the driver issue, but not the lid closing issue. I double-checked the power settings, and the LT is set to sleep when lid is closed for both Plugged In and On Battery. The Lenovo software has no options for changing these settings, so there's no conflict there.
Update 2: Well, this is ridiculous. It worked fine for a period, but as of tonight it's back to not working again. Sleep will only activate if 1) Close the lid, which shuts off the screen 2) Open the lid so the screen turns back on 3) Close the lid again.
Plugged the adapter into my desktop, inserted the intallation disk, got wifi and used it for about an hour and then shut it down. Then when I started up again I couldn't get the wdna4100 to connect again. Followed all the recommendations I could find (uninstalled all the software and drivers, downloaded the ones for windows 10, read everything I could find, but got nowhere). The adapter works just fine on my laptop, but I don't need it to work on my laptop, I need it to work on my desktop. Any ideas?
Got it! I think what worked was to reset the adapter and then uninstall all the drivers and reinstall new ones. I tried so many things I'm not sure what actually worked, but I had something to do with installing new drivers. Thank you for your help.
Thank you for helping me with this. When I plug it into my desktop computer I get nothing. If I open Netgear Genie it doesn't recognize that the adapter is connected, so no wifi networks or error messages. The first time I plugged it in to the same desktop the adapter connected to a wifi network all by itself, but I haven't been able to get it to connect on the desktop again. Is it safe enough to post the sysinfo file here, or is that not a good idea?
More information: If the wnda4100 adapter is not plugged into my desktop then Netgear Genie won't launch, but if it is plugged in Genie does launch so the computer must recognize the adapter?
When the adapter is plugged into the desktop the lights on the adapter flash blue/orange/blue/orange, so it seems to be looking for the network but can't find it. I'm sending this from my laptop , and it's connected to the same network the adapter is looking for.
The wnda4100 is looking for the signal from a Netgear booster, which gets the signal wirelessly from a Nighthawk access point which is wired to a TP-LINK router, but the 4100 adapter can use that signal when it's connected to my laptop, so the problem seems to be with my desktop computer.
