Re: Win XP drivers for Satellite C660 needed

cheers toshiba community,
first off this notebook is my first contact with toshiba. browsing the site/forum is a pain!
Reminds me of browsing via isdn times...
As you might guess i dont like win 7 very much,maybe because i dont understand why it is that uncomfortable and needs to garbage the hd that much.
Its stable and working but doesnt satisfy me when it comes to customization and transparency.
So im about to replace it with win xp (or archlinux).
Before starting having the needed drivers is essential and that's where im stuck right now.
One could hope the xp internal drivers will budge or make sure the needed packages are already there. definitely i prefer the 2nd.
Link: [toshiba download center search|http://www.pictureupload.de/originals/pictures/100112101116_Treiber_herunterladen_-_Toshiba.png] came up with 4 results, *only network drivers are officially available for win xp*...
graphics driver aint a problem.
*the question is where to get the others?* webcam, audio, touchpad, etc
*will xp standard drivers offer basic functionality?*
*or is there a basic 'source' on this forum im not aware of?*
*or maybe theres a toshiba app dealing with that problem?*
*or even worse doesnt toshiba provide builds for xp?*
i wont believe toshiba forces to use win7.
Any infos/sources would be helpful and are greatly appreciated!
Any complaints on prefering xp over win7 are off topic and subjective.
Btw it seems to be a important needed info: recovery medias were created

Hi
I visited the Toshiba European driver page and was able to find the Win XP drivers for the Satellite C660 as you can see on the screenshot.

Unfortunately its not a driver package so you will need to download the single drivers step by step

Need Win XP Drivers for Satellite A100 bought in Malaysia

Hi All,
I bought this A100 (PSAAKL-00E002) in Malaysia. Below are the specs
* Intel Pentium Dual-Core Processor T2060
(1.73GHz, 1MB L2 Cache, 533MHz FSB)
* Genuine Windows Vista Home Basic
* 512MB DDR2 SDRAM
* 80GB Serial-ATA HDD
* DVD SuperMulti Double Layer Drive (DVDRW/RAM)
* 15.4" WXGA TFT display
* ATI Radeon Xpress 200M, up to 128MB shared VRAM
* Integrated Wireless 802.11b/g
* 56Kbps Modem
* 10/100Mbps Ethernet
and upgrade to 1GB Mb RAM currently.
I occasionally get BSOD in Vista Basic. Not that frequent but occasionally BSOD. I felt the new Vista is kinda sensitive to any drivers changes. Eg. screnario: I bought a new mouse, plug it and it will start installing the itself. After installing the mouse drivers, i went to control panel->mouse to change some settings.... well.... BSOD... :(
So i decided to downgrade to Win XP Pro instead. I manage to get everything installed except the graphics card drivers: ATI Radeon Xpress 200M.
I tried to download from all the Toshiba website but none of them is working. I even tried to download from ATI website itself. Everytime i try to install the drivers it prompts me, missing "INF".
For VISTA here is the list of drivers and application that need to be installed
Sun Java 2 Runtime Environment
ATI UMA Chipset Software and Display Driver
Realtek ALC861 Audio Driver
Synaptics TouchPad Driver
Realtek Wired LAN Driver
ENE1410 Cardbus driver
TOSHIBA Software Modem
Atheros 802.WireLess Lan Driver
Toshiba Extended Tiles for Windows Mobility Center
TOSHIBA Value Added Package
TOSHIBA Hardware Setup
TOSHIBA Supervisor Password
TOSHIBA Assist
TOSHIBA ConfigFree
CD/DVD Acoustic Silencer
I manage to install all the mention above in XP except for "ATI UMA Chipset Software and Display Driver"
Now I'm not sure that the missing "inf" is referring to the chipset or display driver
Anyone have any idea where i can download a compatible graphic drivers for Win XP PRO?

yupe..i'm facing the same problem. it is not BSOD but it is freeze and halted. You can try to remove one additional ram. It will work fine in single 512MB RAM. I tried single 1GB ram, it will halt in vista too. i had post the message, but i can't found the message anymore in my history message now. someone is reply me but my post is missing now?? :(. help!
I think it will be a known issue in future.:0

Need Win XP drivers for Satellite A100 (PSAA2)

Dear all!
I had an troyan horse program, so I have formated by Portion Magic.
I have installed 2 new Windows (Recovery cd-rom for XP is corrupted) on "C" and "D" , but there are some problems now:
the following things are listed with an "?" in the device manager: 1.
Ethernet-Controller
Sm Bus Controller
USB Universal Host Controller
pci device (PCI Bus 7, device 6, function 3)
videocontroller (VGA-compatible)
2. I checked the system by Everest, but it can not recognize that device (marks as [NoDB]).
3. I can not install driver for that devices from Toshiba site....Windows does not see, does not recognize drivers for Ethernet-Controller . Absolutely.
I know that procedure, but that driver could be installed by any way!!!
4. Especially important. I can not connect internet. Connection light is green, connection looks like to be OK, but I can not download any information from internet, I can not open any site!
Satellite A100 (PSAA2), Windows XP. SP1
My situation is partly like http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=143532&#143532
(Technical Spike), but I can not find specific Canada drivers!!(((
Help me, please!

Hi!
Please have a look on the Toshiba Canada website. Its pretty easy to download all drivers:
http://www.toshiba.ca => Support => Mobile Computing => Drivers and utilities
Then you can search for your model.
Im a little bit confused because in question 3 you said that you cant install the Toshiba drivers and at the end you said that you cant find the Canada drivers
Please download and install all drivers and then problems are solved because without driver you are not able to go in the internet.
Bye

Need Win 98 drivers for Satellite 1670

Good morning, I need Satellite 1670cds - Win98 drivers but I can't find them.
I've also read a previous topic with same ask, but i find a great number of information with no link to theese drivers.
Can someone post the link to theese drivers please?
Thanks in advance.

Hi
I checked the Toshiba European driver page but there are only some Win 98 SE drivers.
However, to find these drivers you have to go to the Toshiba European driver page and there you have to choose
*Archive -> Satellite -> Satellite 16xx -> Satellite 1670 -> PS167E -> Win 98 SE*

Win 7 32-64 bit drivers for Satellite A300D-17G PSAKCE

hello, everybody!
I've read previous topics regarding win 7 drivers for A300, though I'd like to consult on my own problem. I've got A300D.
Toshiba drivers page offers very limited list of drivers for Satellite A300D-17G PSAKCE.
http://ru.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=RU
Why?
Where shall I get the rest?
No matter for 32 or 64 bit. I'll be happy with any of them.
Thanx in advance!

Everything depands on drivers what you really need...
You should check the device manager.
If there are some unknown devices then use the workaround in the HowTo in order to find such driver.
To be honest there are no many different devices.
WLan, Bluetooth, touchpad are not notebooks specific
Wlan driver can be downloaded from here:
http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/wlan/
Also Toshiba tools like VAP (value added package) Flash Card support utility and similar can be installed on different notebook models
So I dont think that this is little extreme

I need drivers for Satellite S2450-401

I need all drivers for satellite S2450-401 since i've misplaced the driver CD.
The model is not available on the website. Can someone tell me where can i find them?
Please post the apt link.

Hello
I presume your notebook is an European notebook model and you must not search the drivers on Canadian site. Just go to http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com 'Support & Downloads. For older notebook models (like yours) you should as product type choose Archive.
That's all!
Bye and good luck!

L520: are there any Win 8 drivers for Ericsson 5521gw WWAN card?

I can't find any Win 8 drivers for my L520. There is a driver listed on the Win 8 beta page, but L520 is not mentioned there.
Is the 5521gw card working on Win 8 x64? Do I need the beta driver or do we have to install the Win 7 version?

How to find drivers for Satellite L755

I made full format for my laptop Satellite L755-169.
Now I can't find the valid drivers, like display for example
What shall I do?

Well, if you have some unknown devices in the device manager, I would recommend searching for device id and vendor id to get more details about the device.
Then you could search in google for the driver.
Here is a nice HowTO:
http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/ann.jspa?annID=78
But generally speaking all Win 7 drivers for your model are placed on the Toshiba European driver page. So if you know the unknown device, it should not be a problem to get the driver.

Re: Dual Band PCI Card for Satellite C660

Hello, please can someone suggest any dual band PCI card for Satellite C660
thanks

>Dose it mean this forum if not supported by Toshiba?
Buddy, its a user to user community
Regarding the miniPCI WLan card:
Such part upgrade is not officially supported and therefore details about compatible cards are not available.
But from my knowledge many different notebook series have been equipped with different WLan card from Realtek, Intel and Atheros.
Probably such cards would be compatible even if they are not listed officially as supported part.

No Win 8.1 drivers for Satellite L750-129

Hey,
I have a Toshiba Satellite L750-129 PSK30E and due to the need to format the machine and some other conditions I have installed Windows 8.1 on my system.
Also I managed to install a chipset driver, nVidia video driver and some other drivers. But a problem appears when I try to find/install an audio driver. I have a Conexant system and on Windows 7 its drivers worked fine (those found on the Toshiba website). I did not seem to find ANY Windows 8/8.1 drivers for my laptop anyhow (Toshiba doesn't even bother making them?!) but some Win 7 ones still seemed to work except for the audio one.
So, long question short: how can I get my hands on a driver that would support my laptop's needs?

Satellite L750-129 (PSK30E-00F008RU)
Downloads here.
That model is not supported for Windows 8.

Cannot find Win 8.1 drivers for Satellite C50-A-1DV

Hi.
I re-installed windows 8.1 from a disk I have, but I'm having driver problems, namely finding certain driver support on the Toshiba website.
It seem that my laptop isn't listed, or I can't find it in the support section for drivers.
The drivers I'm looking for namely are the motherboard drivers.
I already tried a driver site but my laptop was taking a good few minutes to power off after shutdown so I doubt those were correct. I'll try intel chipset device software and see if that gives me the correct ones.
Rest of drivers I can get simple enough through device manager, but not the chipset drivers, and probably usb 3.0 too.
On a side note, I noticed I don't need to type in the key, which I wrote down using belarc, I assume it's saved to the BIOS and windows auto detects it correct?

Hello
According notebook specification your notebook was delivered with preinstalled Windows 8.1 64bit so what you should do is to reinstall original recovery image that contains all necessary drivers.
When you say you have installed Win 8.1 from the disc, what does it mean exactly?
Have you installed your own OS version or original Win8.1 version from created recovery disc?
Anyway, al Win8.1 64bit drivers you can download from Toshiba download page - http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp
There you can find all drivers for your Satellite C50-A-1DV with part number PSCG6E.

Need drivers for Satellite M115-s3094

Hi,
I have a Satellite M115-s3094, I had problems with my OS which was Windows XP MCE but I could not fix it. So I got fed up and loaded in windows XP Professional, but a lot of my drivers have gone.
The drivers I require are for Ethernet controller, network controller, PCI device, flash memory, SM bus controller, USB controller, video controller....plus I have no sound. It is an Intel centrino duo...as you can see I am missing a lot of drivers.
Could anyone tell me how can I find out what kind of drivers I need and where do I get them from? Would Win XP SP2 installation help to install any of these drivers?
Any help at all would be very much appreciated...
Thanks to all..

I have the same problem. I just need the drivers for the Ethernet controller and PCI device. I assume that the PCI device is the wireless card.
I have tried all of the drivers on the Toshiba website, but none seem to work.
Please help us out.
