Re: ATI Radeon X1200 and CAD softwares (56K Warning!)
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 |

Hello,
it would easier to search for the drivers by their Hardware ID string, which is found in device manager, in the device's property windows, under the "Details" tab and selecting "Hardware IDs" in the drop down menu The string should look something like: PCI\VEN_xxxx&DEV_xxxx&SUBSYS_xxxxxxxx Try doing a google search for the "VEN_xxxx&DEV_xxxx" to find the drivers Off hand, i think the wifi driver for the RL8187B_WLAN_Adapter can be found under RealTek's download site under WLAN ICs --> 802.11b/g single chip selection. The SM Bus controller will probably be the one from ATI, which you can find in one of their motherboard driver download pages; just installed the southbridge package for a X1200. Here you should also be able to download the X1200 Video driver as well for the Video Controller entry. The PCI Device is probably a dial-up modem, and you should be able to use toshiba's vista driver for that, and i'm afraid you'll have to google the VEN & DEV to find the ethernet controller driver for XP. Good luck, take care, -Randomness |
