Not able to install windows xp drivers on Toshiba Satellite L455D-S5976

[desirer]

I have been using Toshiba Satellite L455D-S5976 and it had came pre-installed with Windows 7 but then I was not that comfortable with the same and I have tried installing the XP sp3 on it, I have installed it successful but then some drivers are still missing, I am not able to find out the following drivers:

• Ethernet Controller
• Network Controller
• SM Bus Controller
• Video Controller

Is there anyone who can help??

I think that you might be quite lucky with the same I mean that was trying to install xp on the same but then after going through the setup I was getting a BSOD just after it used to say starting windows… I have tried using the compatibility mode rather than using AHCI but then the process was getting hangs in between, I don’t know if the issue is with the hdd or something else. Is there anyone who can help me out???

As far as I am aware the order of the installation matters, I will suggest you to install the below drivers first:

• Display Driver

• Processor driver

After that install the below Realtek LAN Driver and the Wireless Lan Driver:

• Realtek LAN Driver

• Wireless Lan Driver

You can get the other remaining drivers from the below link:

• Toshiba Laptop Driver Downloads

I think that you should better go in to the BIOS and then again change the setting to SATA rather than using the compatibility mode, if you have not tried out the same then just try it out and then let me know if it is helping.

I have tried switching the bios setting to the below modes by now but then they are not making any difference and I am still getting the same BSOD error:

• SATA
• AHCI
• Compatibility mode

I am really running out of ideas and I don’t know what to do, any further help for the same will be appreciated.
