    I have an A25 S207 that seems pretty slow for a P4 2.8. It use it for music Dj'ing and Karaoke hosting and it seems to really labor and sputter.

    I have upgraded RAM to 1gig.
    I have put in a new 5400rpm harddrive
    I did not have the original install disks so when I got the new harddrive I did a clean XP pro install, then went to the Toshiba site and tried to update all the files...

    Does anyone have a recommended set of files that I would need to make sure the motherboard drivers are correct? I also would like to make sure that the IDE bus software is correct.

    Maybe there is some propriety software on the original install for this motherboard that I am missing? I have tried to search for the original CD's to no avail, does anyone have them still?

    Thanks for your expertise, I know much more about desktops than notebooks.
