hey y'all,

my friend recently reinstalled her laptop with Windows XP SP2. However, when I tried to help her install the driver, her laptop can't figure which is which.

I tried to tell her to install the driver provided by Toshiba for the LAN adapter on "Ethernet Controller", however Windows keeps rejecting the .INF.

If anyone has a solution, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
xboxrulz

It seems you have not used the recovery CD that comes with the Toshiba laptops.

You need to install the drivers that comes along with the laptop. If you don't have the driver CD you can download it online from the following site:

Basically the problem is that the OS is not recognising the hardware. It is most probably the DMI driver which helps in recognising the board and chipsets. You may download the DMI driver from the following site:

If this does not work than probably try downloading the Intel chipset software utility from the following link

Also update the BIOS and try other system drivers available for tecra S2.

All the best.
