    Hi everyone. This is my first post so bear with me if I goof. I recently purchased a Toshiba Satellite A100 series this Spring and gave it to my daughter when hers went on the fritz. But she decided to reformat and reinstall XP after having problems and of course, she didn't know about drivers so I have to find them on the net and download them, burn them to a CD and bring them to her when she's available. She lives an hour away so I told her I would do this for her.

    Now to the facts.

    When looking in device manager, the following have yellow question marks beside them:

    Ethernet controller
    Mass storage *something or other*
    PCI device
    SM Bus controller
    Video contgroller
    Video Controller VGA compatible


    Now I have searched on the Toshiba site for the drivers but it doesn't seem to recognize my model. I asked my daughter on the phone and here is the information she gave me.

    Genuine Intel CPU
    [email protected] Ghz
    795 mhz
    I know it has a mg of ram in it

    Toshiba Satelitte A100-Ta6 system unit
    Model PSAA8C-TA602C

    I sure hope this is enough for someone to help me find the original drivers. She is on cable for her internet and the tech from the cable company told her that her computer doesn't seem to recognize the the video card or something like that or her ethernet card.

    Pleaaaaaaaaaase help me fix this mess because I only can do so much from here. If I can find the drivers, I can burn them to CD and reinstall them to her computer. I do it with my desktop by myself so I should be able to do it on hers as well.

    Thank you for reading. :)
