Please i am hoping somone can help me!!! In the next two weeks ill be traveling for work and Its imperative our laptops work. I had to wipe this morning due to system crash and I have re-installed windows xp pro sp2. Its a Toshiba A215 - S7437 . Currently Im sitting with below in device manager as missing:

Ethernet Controller
PCI Device
RL8187B_WLAN_Adapter
Sm Bus Controller
Video Controller

This machine originally had vista on it so there is zero support for it ALTHOUGH I converted it for him about 8 months ago and I was able to get it all up and running .. unfortunately we have no disk.

ALL I need help on is getting the internet connection on it up. I can find the audio and video. I Assume I need the Ethernet controller so I can set a line into it and it will read it. I really need to get this up and have been sitting here for THREE HOURS already... I keep finding things on line that show " Rapid share " but every time I get 90 % of the way done then it says " Cannot read server source " Please if you have time point me in the right direction... I figured you may know other places to look or can look at it from a hardware angle and see what driver I may need and I can find it on ANOTHER Toshiba model. You can also email me @ Shaun.Knapp@hotmail.com

Thank you!!

Shaun

Shaun,
I found this (linked below) link from Toshiba's website directly. According to the website, the drivers are for both winXP and Vista.

Model Content Page

just be sure to narrow down your results to say "driver" or any other option you may need from there.
