Hey guys,
I thought Toshiba laptops were great until a friend asked me to upgrade his laptop from vista to Windows XP. Now Im stuck! THANKS TOSHIBA B_TCHES!!
I have a A200 PSAF0A and cannot find the drivers for:
Mass Storage controller
Modem Device on High Definition Audio Bus
Video Drivers
It would be much appreciated if someone could help me out with these drivers if there are any that is?

I use to import heaps of Toshis from Japan put English windows on them and load all the drivers, then change the jappo keyboards. I found the European Toshiba website the most comprehensive for drivers but mind you your lappy is probably a Filipino import being an Aussie model.
(And so ppl arnt the wiser!!)
FYI
TOSHIBA A-holes ARE NOT supporting Windows XP drivers for laptops that didn't come out with XP.. That is with a lot of the newer laptops that come pre-installed with Vista that you would like to revert it back to windows xp. So it's looking bad for XP enthusiasts. So xp is getting the flick.. LOVE Toshiba!
Which is quiet rude if you as me. (but don't ask coz Im pissed!) So what do you do? Buy a different brand of coz.. for now
hey gado
Thanks fofr you idea
I went around to a few different sites chasing my tail and finally got an answer, but am yet to find out if all works well.
btw if you have a Toshiba laptop with Vista and you hate it, click on the link below. There is a huge thread on these problems alone..
Same with HP, you need to search for older models with the same hardware and try and do your best. Once you get close you can use one of the Driver Genius or Driver Magic type apps to get the latest versions of drivers... although it isn't foolproof. See post 8 of for help
I did a lot of digging around and came up with at least most of the drivers you'll need if you have the european model of the A200. for the following:
LAN
Realtek Audio XP
Softmodem
SD Utilities
Wireless card driver
Bluetooth (if applicable)
Intel Chipset
Some helpful links on other drivers and download locations
Hope this helps. You'll need to unzip the archive.
there should be folder in c: called TOSAPINS and it has all drivers for video .. sounds .. LAN .. bluetooth etc etc
Trust thyself only, and another shall not betray thee.

Hi guys Thanks for all your help. I haven't replied since coz I told them to stick with vista. Less hassles and time was of the essence.
They like vista now. It was a bit slower but the bells and whistles paid off! It was a matter of adjusting which I guess was the biggest problem.
You pay through the arse for vista, it is a real battle to purchase a pc from harvey norman now without the vista curse.
You can not purchase one without an operating system from there either( tried to different shops, funny times).
I notice in the latest dell catalog that XP is available via Vista downgrade rights( bottom of all system specs) I wonder does this mean if you own Vista you can run any XP you want legally??
Vista CD's are good, for drink coasters or for the kids to play with.
What happens if I press alt + F4?
