I basically needed to reinstall windows xp on my laptop (Toshiba m65 s809) and I installed Win XP Pro Sp2 on it and I immediately noticed that none of my drivers are installed! My video card/sound card, the resolution doesn't go up as high anymore, and my touch pad doesn't scroll down like it used to! I know that there is a different version of xp for laptops right? Is there a way for me to install xp CLEAN onto my laptop without having to buy something? Thanks for any help!

I know I'm a girl but I do know a thing or two about computers ok?! I just don't know AS much as some of you guys. But hey, I'm still learning! So don't laugh at me! =|

Have a look on the toshiba website and get the drivers you need there!!!!

Ack corrections...It's Toshiba M65 S9093! And one more thing! Sorry~ I backed up everything onto my external and once i moved everything (one folder)back onto my desktop, i opened up my c/program files, i had all these folders in there that was originally there before my installation and I don't know which folders to erase and which ones to keep.

How did you back them up, by just copying them manually or did you use any back up software????

I backed them up manually...is that bad?

ack...i restarted the comp and now my screen doesn't work!! =|

If you had used the file and settings transfer wizard it would have been a lot easier as it puts the files in the right place for you!!!! Too late for that now tho!!!!
