    :scratch: I was wondering if anyone can help me.. :help: Does anyone have a VGA driver disc for a Toshiba Satellite A30...??

    I am desperate to get hold of one for my Grandsons laptop...!! If I could borrow I would of course return it ASAP..
    I have been looking on the Internet to download one but no luck.. The driver from another Toshiba doesn't work as we have tried that too..
    So any help will be most gratefully received.. Thank you from us both.. :thmb:

    It is the Tosh video & graphics drivers.. Hence it doesn't scroll smoothly, has no stand by & loads of other important bits.. The recovery discs & his drivers were sadly stolen along with it's bag luckily the lap top wasn't in it...!!:mad:

    :scratch: Hmm not tried that one roders, it seems to be impossible to find anything much out.. We have been told look here & there on the Internet, but there are never any there for that model so we have tried some others with no luck.. We have had to buy a new windows disc as well.. So if you feel you could trust me with the discs I promise I would try them & return them straight away.. Let me know & I will PM you my addi.. :thmb:

    John, that is very kind of you but it isn't that one either.. I have tried the Tosh Europe site & noluck as well as the one you recommended but no luck so far.. It is a Toshiba A30-921.. Mod PSA 33 99644-EN.. If that means anything to you.. It is so weird none of the recomended ones will install....!!!! Argh..!!!! :dh:

    :thumb: Cheers for your help John, will go & have a scour on Ebay then... Yes it is annoying they stole them along with the bag but some people cannot resist it.. It was at the local college by the way, but of course nothing turned up from it.. Ah well there we are.. :mad:

    No worries, glad I can help in some way, as plants and gardening aren't quite my strong point yet lol

    Guarantee that one of those drivers will work.
