    It appears that samsungpc.com is no longer maintained.

    You can try searching the Samsung global download site but, while I can see a P29 and a P40, the P30 is hiding from me. Is there a longer model number? Alternatively, the P30 may be the business version of one of the other Samsung models with a similar number (eg Q30, R30 or X30) so it may be worthwhile looking for those models.

    The Samsung P30 is the predecessor of the "legendary" Samsung P35, than came the Samsung P40.

    I had a Samsung P35 for a long time that was identical with the P30 in most parts (video card was different and older Centrino Chpset / CPU were used). I recommend using the driver from the hardware vendors (Chipset, ...). The most difficuilt part will be the video board I guess.

    Unfortunately I do not have an website still having the oroginal drivers too.
