Toshiba Satellite A215-S5818 XP drivers here!

ukmex · Jan 21, 2008, 11:25 PM

After six hours of hunting on the net I finally managed to get together all the drivers necessary to run a Toshiba Satellite A215-S5818 perfectly on XP, Toshiba only have the Vista ones on their site. So you don't have the same boring experience I've packed them up and you can download them all from my site at the following link:

http://www.tucanet.com/toshiba/TOSH-...DRIVERS_XP.ZIP

The drivers will remain there as long as there aren't too many downloads as bandwidth costs me $$$.

Day by day a XP driver install on a new computer becomes a harder experience

Please disregard this post, I misunderstood how to use ukmex file.

Peace

It's still better than when you had to manually write the auto and config ,to install a sound card. Just love them mile long autoexec.s......

The modtool does it for you. That part is pretty simple now.

The zip isn't a scam go get a life!

It's free and not password protected. Don't believe me, download it!

The modtool is for video, it doesn't fetch you all the drivers needed for a full working install on a Toshiba Satellite A215-S5818 with XP installed.

I'm just trying to help people and you are being a 100% imbecile period!

Charming response.

I didnt say the modtool fetched anything, I said I used it.

And I did download your exe and it did ask me to register and pay to register.

So... breath deep... relax....

If I made a mistake (which I dont think I did) then so be it.

See ya

OK guys, calm down, I'm sure it's a misunderstanding.

There seems to be a registration requirement to use the extractor, so I can understand where ddam is coming from. I'm hoping for an explaination to that. The EXE file does appear to open fine with WinRAR, so the drivers can be accessed that way.

ddam · Jan 30, 2008, 08:14 PM

Cool, if I misunderstood how to use it, I apologize.

Take care

ddam · Jan 30, 2008, 08:19 PM

Ok, I could open it with winrar too.

I got this working with alot less drivers than that just so ya know.

The only thing I dont have worked out yet is the sm bus controller. No big deal yet.

The smbus driver usually comes in the ATI motherboard set: AMD GAME! Drivers and Utilities

Just choose custom install and it should let you untick everything but smbus driver... (i think)

ddam · Jan 30, 2008, 08:35 PM

Cool, Ill give that a shot.

Thanks

I've now changed exe to a zip but the exe did open fine for me when I tested it locally before the upload.

The way to answer is not to call someone a "scammer" but to state you have problems opening the file and I would have checked it out and corrected any problems with the file.

No luck for me on that one. This one has been the toughest to find.

I tried the drivers at drop.io listed in another post because the specs were similar, but no luck there either. Hmmm

Peace
