Where can I Find Drivers for a 2004 Toshiba Laptop?
13 replies, posted
My mother got a Toshiba Satellite back around '04 or '05. For some reason, at least one thing has gone wrong with it every year since she got it; ranging from virus attacks to sudden random blue-screening. Rather than packing in the XP install disk so a Windows repair can be done, Toshiba packed in a recovery disk that re-formats the drive and reverts it to what it was like when we got it (including Norton and a bunch of Toshiba shit).
After the latest crash she finally got a new copy of XP, but now we don't have any drivers for the damn thing. Apparently it's an old enough laptop that Toshiba's website no longer has them up for download, and I've been searching Google for a valid site where I can get valid drivers. Can someone point me out to a legitimate website where I can get laptop drivers?

The links on that site lead to the now non-existent Toshiba download pages.
What kind of drivers do you need anyway?

Wi-Fi, display, pretty much anything specific to the laptop.
Drivers are here.

I've tried installing like 3 versions of the display drivers and I still can't bring the resolution up from 1024 x 768, what gives?
Use laptopvideo2go and get the newest drivers.
Those discs that came with the laptop are fine so what if you have to get rid of norten and the free internet trails and shit at least it works.

It's a bit annoying to lose everything on your computer when you could simply repair the OS if you had the disk.
Also, somehow I suspect that one of the programs that came with the laptop is to blame for the instability.
