I need some help with my xp

philman401 · 02-17-2009, 12:08 AM

Hello, I just replaced my windows vista with windows XP pro sp3. I'm trying to get drivers for my devices that are having some problems, mostly these:

Ethernet Controller
SM BUS Controller
BCM5701 Gigabit Ethermet

I'm not that computer savvy, and I'm trying to get the right drivers of the above listing.

if you need my laptop info:

OS: Windows XP Pro sp3
System Manufacturer: Toshiba
System Model: Satellite A215
Processor: AMD Turion(tm) 64 X2 Mobile Technology TL-56 (2 CPUs), ~1.8GHz

Or you can use this http://www.cpuid.com/pcwizard.php

Determine your motherboard make and model and see if there are drivers provided by the motherboard manufacturer on their website

Hi,
What is the exact make and model of this Toshiba A215 what? (As Receng56 posted).

I would not install just any driver package without knowing first what you have for hardware.

Hi,
The link Jarod posted should work for your drivers. It is a different model, but has the same Chipset driver:
