Thread: From windows 7 to XP

Hi,

I have placed my Toshibas750 from Win7 to XP and today I am holding Adapter trouble with myWiFi. It is saying driver not setup. I have downloaded and setupevery driver from Toshiba but it did not work. Please assist me.

You can download your drivers here, but if the computer sent with Windows 7 there are likely not any drivers for XP

There is a driver for XP with Toshiba website and I have setup it. It does not look to go via the complete installation set-up when I click it it merely look to stop. When I installed IntelPro/wireless it says there is no driver for the adapter.

When you save a driver from a website, and you click it, it should Unzip a file to a place on your C: drive. C:\Drivers. Bring note of this location. Merely go to Start Menu or Run and enter devimgmt.msc and then enter. In the Device Manager any devices with yellow marks need drivers setup. Underneath Network Adapters, right click the Wireless adapter and select Update Driver. Nowadays browse it to the location where the driver downloaded to. and highlight the .inf file to setup the driver.

I did unzip the files and did all the procedures above but it would not encounter it. An Indian tech support guy told me that though Toshiba have XP drivers on their website they do not guarantee that it will work.(?) Is there any tricks or other ways of doing it?

Is there yellow beside of anything in the device manager?????

Like called for :

PCI\VEN_168C&DEV_0030&SUBSYS_650311AD&REV_01
PCI\VEN_168C&DEV_0030&SUBSYS_650311AD
PCI\VEN_168C&DEV_0030&CC_028000
PCI\VEN_168C&DEV_0030&CC_0280

those are the driver detail underneath Hardware ID

Which Windows XP service pack are you applying??? I ask because presently just Windows SP3 has support from Microsoft and other vendors. Thus if it is XP Sp2 the drivers might not work. Add as you have already heard, technology does not feel back. If the machine arrived on Windows 7 then there is the possibility that it would not work exactly on lower versions of Windows as machines are optimized for a sure OS. Examine the sticker on the PC, it will tell you "DESIGNED FOR ."

Considerable I merely reinstalled windows 7 using my own disk and I am having the same trouble. No network controller driver..

Have you setup the Chipset drivers? You should be able to install the most drivers from the manufacturer website. The wireless driver can be detected.
