    any sort of service to hunt down drivers automatically?


    I just did a clean install on my laptop and I am wondering if there is a quick and easy service to hunt down the necessary drivers i need, versus browsing the toshiba website for hours. I do have access to the internet on the computer because I have the wlan adapter driver installed.

    Thanks!

    The standard advice is to avoid driver update gizmos in general.

    Can you enter a model number or perhaps a serial number or tag number at Toshiba support site and get directed to all appropriate drivers quickly?

    Don't use automatic driver updaters. I learned that the hard way:)
    For these two (Graphics): Nvidia Geforce 9600 gt/ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5650
    You could try this :
    Nvidia : NVIDIA Driver Downloads - Automatically Detect NVIDIA Products *will need java to run*
    AMD: AMD Driver Autodetect
    Note that these may not work, since Toshiba is manufacturer. If so it will simply tell you, it cannot find the right drivers or the device.
