Terrific. Toshiba web site lists two drivers
Toshiba driver dated 2001` - but Windows says its no better than the one already
installed
Cisco driver and a bunch of other stuff. Its a Toshiab LAN mini-PCI card so should
I install the CISCO stuff?
Rhetorical question really. I had a go but XP didn't want to know.
The existing driver says its an Aegere driver so I uninstall that try to install
the Toshiba driver in its place but the New Hardware wizard does not give me a chance
to specify the location of the driver.
Anyway, eventually I track it down and the currently installed driver is the same
(date time, filesize, name) as the one downloaded from the Toshiba website.
So where do I go from here?
