I am currently trying to convert my Toshiba Satellite A100 from Vista to Xp Pro. Any help that can be sent to me in regards to driver locations on the web would be very much appreciated. I have some of them but can't seem to find the right chipset driver, ati display driver for an intel celeron platform. Thanks for your time and consideration, Paul G.

I tried configuring the alsa mixer and it didn't work. I also tried installing the new drivers, also didn't work (I think I kindda missed up there), I even tried upgrading it to Ubuntu 7.10 and still doesn't work. The sound works fine on suse10.2 and 10.3, but the wifi adapter doesnt connect to all networks on 10.3. You have a solution for that? Thanks in advance.

It allows one to lauch the wireless lan as well as connectivity doctor, summit etc.. When you say access point, are you referring to the home computer that I connect through for example?

It sounds like you may be referring to the windows utility. I think this may have more to do with your access point. Try rebooting it to see if it helps, normally access points are set to auto channel selection, this should force it to pick a cleaner channel to use. Hi Stephen,

When I use the Wireless access it connects for 5-10mins but then cuts off automatically. So if I'm loading something, it will be cut off and I have to lauch the satellite again-connect etc. How can I combat this? Hi,

Try the fix on this post: http://www.apeman.org/2007/04/28/147/ Cheers, Chris Hi Devlin -
