toshiba A210-11p xp drivers help

hello well i have the toshiba A210-11p laptop and im thinking of going to xp with it as it came with vista. im from uk and having trouble with drivers. i cant get them from toshiba uk so doeas anyone know of any drivers that work with this laptop please.

ive come across this site
http://www.notebook-drivers.com/notebook-drivers/s_239_1.shtml
wich has drivers for A210 but i donk knowwhat i should be installing ?

help would be greatly appreciated on the drivers please

 

I don't really see why you'd want to downgrade. It runs great on my A210-11P and I wouldn't choose to go back to XP; it feels a bit dated now I'm used to Vista. I recommend making sure Vista's upto date and removing any unnesecary startup programs to help free up resources.

I've got my RAM usage down to 28% at startup with around 50 processes. The updates to Vista have definately helped a lot too; there is less hard drive activity.

 

i gathered going back to xp it would run a lot faster to be honest ive only had it a month so not really got stuck into it .

any tips on any tweaks or startup tips. mine seems to take ages to start up .
the only things i have running in systray are webroot spy sweeper and nod 32 smart suite and network connectivity.
cheers

 

Check out all the drivers here:

There are 9 model numbers to the A210 - at least a couple of them are bound to match your configuration. Download your spec sheet from the Toshiba UK/US website and compare specs with the Canadian models, download the drivers which belong to the closest model (choose XP as your operating system).

There are plenty of ways to speed up your startup. Try CCleaner - a FREE and extremely effective program to eliminate those dragging programs which slow your laptop down. http://www.ccleaner.com/
Have a look at the list of startup programs - maybe longer than you think!

Use nlite to slipstream drivers and install a lean and mean version of XP. My laptop boots in 14 seconds now. I downgraded from appalling Vista as well.

Cheers

tiny thanks for your input but i cant try a reinstall till ii know for cert they will work .im no expert you see

 

What I did was: looked on toshiba site for Xp drivers, for some components they had some. For the rest I found out which model was the component and went to the producers site and took it.
