    K, I am going to help you out a little, for the SATA drivers for the F6 option I used the same SATA drivers from this page:


    Here


    I was able to get my Toshiba Satillite U300 to load Windows XP.

    I hope this helps.

    If you are in the U.S., go to the Toshiba US site and download and print out the complete spec sheets on your Toshiba. Then go to this site..Toshiba UK....

    http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com

    Search through ALL the units there and find the one that exactly matches your machine. It will most likely have a similar name. Go through the support and download section for that unit and you will most likely find all the XP drivers for your unit plus installation instructions to install them.
