Hi,
Recently, there was a big sale event from Mainland China called "Solo's shopping day, 11.11(11st of Nov)"
I bought mini PC at bargain price (USD430 or so 35% off)
But it has been delivered as barebone PC.
I installed memory and connect 2.5in hard drive.
There are many issues like driver file info.
So, I installed windows 7 professional x64 then checked system->property->device manager->unknown network device->property->details tab->hardware ID

I got : Ven10EC DEV8168 for Ethernet (RealTek) and Ven 14e4 DEV4365 for Wifi (Broadcom)

So, I googled it one by one. then found following working drivers.
Wifi one is a little bit tricky. I needed to install BCM43132a0 windows 7 driver first. (from hp.com, named sp66402.exe)
Then installed Dell 1704 wireless card driver (Wifi + BT)(Network_Driver_6J4VN_WN_WIFI6.20.55.51_A02.exe).
Next, I went to Device manager and find unknown network device and open property - driver tab then 'I have a disk' option and assigned it to c:\Program files\BroadCom\Drivers manually and set it 2x2 801.11 b/g/n wifi adaptor. and it warned that it may not working correctly but, it worked.

Went to Intel.com and got intel chipset driver and intel graphic driver for Intel HD graphics 620.

With intel chipset driver, other mainboard related unknown device are cleared.

Basically, manufacture provides windows 10 driver file but somehow its driver file is packaged as Chinese tool.

Anyway, thanks to Dell, HP, Intel and Realtek, I finally can use this mini PC well.
