techsr Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 Hi all, We've got 10 new laptops for our school! Unfortunately they are all required to run XP, they come shipped with 7 and vendor support seems to be an all time low (Toshiba have nil drivers available). The manufacturers are a little hit and miss but I seem to have cracked it! All but one "Unknown Device" which I personally suspect is the webcam, teachers dont need webcams, so if it can't be done it can't be done! The one niggle I have is that on hibernate/standby the laptop itself appears to boot, but the screen doesn't come to life, so I'm guessing chipset? Is there anything software wise I can do in XP? Just that drivers seem as rare as rocking horse poo. And another theory is that this probably has a whole pot of worms waiting for me... To be brief; the laptop is a Toshiba C850-10W, I'll hopefully rack up some posts! Then I can link to the HwInfo I've made! Thanks, any help appreciated!!!
