Drivers for the Qosmio X770-107??

I went to Toshiba's site but the drivers are not all right, for example, they have both a WLAN Intel Driver and Atheros Intel Driver, but my Notebook only has the Atheros chipset.

So if I specified my rightm odel and submodel, why am I getting these incompatible drivers of other notebooks?

Futhermore, when I installed the Toshiba Value Added Package from Toshiba's website, my function keys stopped working I cant turn up the brightness up or down or any other function

Please help me get the right drivers for my notebook.

On a side note, did anyone notice that before installing the nVIDIA Driver the screen was brighter?

Even at full brightness now it looks pretty dull to me I could've sworn it was brighter before I install the nVIDIA Driver

I isntalled the latest nVIDIA Driver v301.42

Please help

Thanks

 

Did you do a clean install of your OS? Just trying to figure out why your installing the drivers....

Also, make sure your downloading from the UK site and not the US site: Laptop Driver Downloads:


For the screen brightness problem, make sure your power profiles are set appropriately [not on eco mode]; check under battery/power settings.


Good luck and keep us posted with any updates

 

Thanks for the quick response.

Yes I did a clean install as I wanted to install Windows on my Kingston KC100 SATAIII SSD to along side with the Momentus XT to store data

I dont even have the Eco utility installed yet

I'm surprised noone made a clean instal guide as it is the case here usually

Would you recommend I download the latest Intel drivers like Chipset and IRST or is it better to stick to the official ones from Toshiba?

Thanks

 

oh, and can you please comment on what you think is the brightness issue?

 

I would stick with Toshiba drivers, as they were specifically bundled to work with your hardware. As for the wireless, when I checked the UK Wireless Lan Driver, it only has 1 driver listed.

For the brightness, try installing the Toshiba version of the nvidia driver first, then installing the driver directly from nvidia afterwards [maybe the Toshiba drivers has some extra tweeks].

 

Strange, I installed Value Added Package v1.5.15

The moment I uninstalled it the buttons work again

They used to work as soon as I formatted my system anyway

weird, I thought it should've been the opposite that they wont work unless the value added package was installed.

I did ensure not to install it through Windows Updates as well

 

BTW, do you bother installing these:

Toshiba Hardware Setup

Network Registration ID Tool

HDD-SSD Alert Utility

?????

 

This link explains all the Toshiba software. I personally have all Toshiba software installed on my laptop, so I am unsure which ones can be skipped:
