595679 2007-09-27 11:05:00 Reinstalling XP Pro to this Toshiba Notebook Tecra A3X Model No: PTA3XA-00w002. Downloaded all the drivers from Toshiba Australia but encountered 2 problems when installing the drivers:

1. Installation halted half-way when installing the Display driver

2. Can't find the LAN driver from Toshiba Australia.

Any suggestions?

Thanks, Speedy. Display driver is working now but the LAN driver doesn't work.

Also, found that although the Audio driver installed OK and the speaker icon in the system tray is there but there is no sound output.

595682 2007-09-27 12:45:00 The Toshiba Europe site seems to actually be the sane place for laptops. They also have a forum too. Note the A3X is different from the A3... gibler (49)
595683 2007-09-27 12:55:00 Got the sound working now- there is a switch to turn it on!

But can't get the LAN going.:badpc:

Thanks, Matius. I managed to restore the OS from the HDD's recovery partition. Initially, I couldn't perform the recovery process because the HDD has been partitioned into C: & D:. The recovery process went smoothly when the D: partition is removed!

The same site Matius posted.

Select notebook, Tecra, Tecra A series, A3X, and the OS.

Thats if you've got the A3X as well

I just happen to be rebuilding a Tecra A3x too and I am really appreciating these post's -- very helpful.

Although there seems to be one driver I cant find

Intel 82801FBM LPC Interface Controller

The intel chipset id utilty says it's a

Chipset Component

I/O Controller: Intel82801FBM I/O controller hub (ICH6M)

and it is showing in the device manager as an unknown device

I have been all night at the Intel site and installed chipset id util and intel INF update that I THINK is the correct one but still no joy


Thanks in advance for any suggestions :help: :badpc: :dogeye:
