Q: How to reinstall all Windows 7 drivers?

Hello,

today I accidentally deleted all the drivers from my Windows 7 Professional x64bit. I installed it few months ago with BootCamp and all went good. Unfortunately, now I deleted all the drivers and I don't know how to reinstall them because neither my mouse or my keyboard work.
So, I already tried to use BootCamp Assistant to put all the drivers on a USB pen again, but once I opened Windows 7, nothing happened.
I hope I've been clear, otherwise please let me notice it. I'm not mother tongue and I'm sorry for any possible mistake I made.
Thank you very much, waiting impatiently for a reply,

Matteo.

iMac, OS X Mavericks (10.9.5), 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo

Perfect, thank you very much. But, one last question: how do I install them on Win if my mouse and keyboard won't work? Also, I have to put these drivers on USB pen, I guess, haven't I?

I'm sure that I've got the appropriate version for my Mac because it previously worked but accidentally I deleted all the drivers.The thing is that I actually have all the drivers, but I don't know how to install them because I ain't able to use my mouse and keyboard.
That's my real question: since they don't work, how can I install those drivers?
Thank you again, everybody, I'm really appreciating your help.

Windows Safe Mode allows you address such driver issues. Can you load the drivers in Windows Safe Mode?

Well, I think that to enter in Windows safe mode I have to press F8 on my keyboard while it's loading the Windows os but I can't use my keyboard at all.
Is there any other way to enter in safe mode without using keyboard?

1. Is this a wired keyboard?
2. Before the Windows installed drivers are loaded, Safe mode loads generic drivers to allow external devices to function. If you keyboard does not work before Windows has started loading, you may have other issues. Please try safe mode.
3. You may need to run the following two procedures to make it work during the Startup phase.
Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC) on your Mac - Apple Support

Unfortunately I haven't got any wired keyboard and I already tried to press F8 with my wireless keyboard and it didn't work.
Do you suggest me to try one of these procedures?
Thank you very much for your patience.

Try the SMC reset first. If you used a USB installer to initially install Windows. It also has the ability to Repair Windows, if you boot from it. Since you have SP1, you should build an installer with that version.

Well, I tried SMC reset and it worked. Now I'm able to access the windows safe mode, but even in this mode, neither my mouse nor my keyboard work.
now I'm in the black screen where I can choose between different ways to start Windows, again. Maybe there's another way instead of the safe mode?

In Safe Mode, the wireless (Bluetooth) drivers may not be loaded. Does your iMac have a built-in Optical drive?

Does you Mac have a built-in SuperDrive? What year/model is your iMac? You can use the a W7 SP1 DVD to boot from and run the Repair from the DVD.
