Now that I have rhe new laptop, and I changed its OS over to Pro from Home Premium, I'm having trouble finding device drivers.
I called into Toshiba to get help getting started, since I couldn't find any of my network drivers on my own, since apparently 64-bit is pickier about generic drivers. Having installed the proper LAN driver, I began searching for the rest of my missing files. All Device Manager did was grab the first driver it could find to get the devices working, but not anything that properly worked. It grabbed a driver for video that outright says it's generic, and it thinks it's the best driver to use... Even though the monitor is capable of 1600x900, the driver only allows me to select 1024x768 or 800x600. It also can't even seem to find one of my chipset controllers, called the SM Controller (I think that's what it is, I'm going from memory since I'm at work and exhausted from getting practically no sleep because I stayed up to try to fix it myself). It's under Network Devices in Device Manager, in case that helps. tl;dr Is there a freeware app out there that will find my proper drivers? Device Manager is a retarded piece of shit. |
