Is it a PC or a laptop? Do you have working wireless on it?

it is a laptop (HP pavillion g6), and it is not recognizing any kind of internet connection.

Ewww a Pavilion g6! I am using one right now and don't think very much of it.
You should find all the drivers you need in a directory called swsetup provided it hasn't been deleted. If it has then you will need to get the drivers from the HP website.

I have no idea. HP use "g6" as a name for over 25 variations on the same laptop with different hardware for several different countries. You will have to have a look at the label under the battery for it's exact model number then figure out what country is was purchased in then go to the correct region on the HP website to find the drivers.
