mirdassou@yahoo.com Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 hi guys. I need some help and advice I do have a toshiba TE2100 intel pentium 4, 1.6GHZ, 256MB of RAM. The configuration shows that there is a Built-in Wireless LAN (802.11b) but when ai look on the device manager list, cant seem to find it. Drivers like network card, video card etc are all installed using windows xp as the driver for the laptop was missing. the only driver that ai think hasnt been installed is the pci modem (as it appears yellow). What ai would like to know is if the driver is found on mai laptop or not. incase it isnt, ai will look fwd getting a pcmia card. Thanks guys.

®®® Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 Execute the attached file from this thread: http://forums.laptopvideo2go.com/index.php?showtopic=646 then reboot. After reboot open up device manager (click VIEW | Show Hidden Devices) and look for your WLAN card. Else run NERD and post the logfile: http://forums.laptopvideo2go.com/index.php?showtopic=756 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

®®® Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 There are 3 unknown devices which means these are existant , but have no driver installed aka Windows XP can't communicate with them. 1 is your Modem, thats correct. The other two are unknown. Likely that one of them is your missing WLAN card. Right Click the unknown devices, got to properties, then details, then write down the DEV_ID and SUBSYS_ID to identify the device. After these values are known the search for a driver can begin. Have you had a visit to the Toshiba Support site already? If not that would be my first try ( http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/su/su_sc_modSel.jsp ) Where did you bought the laptop? Toshiba US, Europe, Asia, Japan? Is there an Toshiba Africa/Kamerun website? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
