Windows 10: AHCI Drivers on Windows XP Toshiba Satellite Pro 32 Bit

Hello. I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro 32 Bit with InsydeH20 BIOS. I have a USB with Windows XP 32-bit edition on it and whenever it gets to the “Setup is running Windows” it shows a BSOD. I don’t know what to do since changing it to Compatibility mode doesn’t work and when I select F6 to install the drivers, it makes a beeping noise. People say I should press F7, but it does nothing. I do not know the problem since the computer is perfectly fine and so is the USB. The installation midway through asks for a driver which there is one inside the USB but it says there are none. I’m trying to g

Windows 10 32/64 bit Drivers for Toshiba Satellite P100/P105 Users

I made an original post with my now ancient (10 year old) Satellite P105-S9722 back in 2009 & 2011 for Windows 7 64-bit drivers.Windows
7 Toshiba Post



I also made a post for Windows 8 & 8.1 drivers.
Windows 8 Toshiba Post



Now that I have newer systems, I have experimented loading Windows 8, then upgrading to Windows 10 in my P105-S9722 system. Wanted to share some observations and any issues I came across.



I have listed here some basic drivers you can use for your P100/P105 systems for Windows 10 and 32/64-bit to work. Many of these listed are from other users, but there may be some additional drivers many may not know about. I can't guarantee that
all of these will make your system work 100%, but hopefully this will make your upgrade just a little quicker & easier.



Before using these driver, I recommend you do a fresh install of Windows 10 32 or 64-bit regardless if you are using XP, Vista, 7, 8 or 8.1 32 or 64-bit systems.



Now I did upgrade my system during the free upgrade period from Windows 8.1. I do recommend using either a USB flash drive or DVD disk to do a fresh install of Windows 10.



After installing the Operating System (OS), immediately go to Programs and Features in Control Panel . Make sure to turn on the .NET Framework 3.5 (includes .NET 2.0 and 3.0). You will need this to install some of the Toshiba utilities.



Many of the native drivers for Windows 10 will automatically be installed. The wifi driver should work. I am using a Sparklan GN-WS30N 802.11n using Ralink RT2860 chipset that works in 10.



SOUND CARD: The biggest issue of Windows 7, 8 & 10 32/64-bit is that there is no sound. The old Audio 4.8.0.0 driver is the only driver that still works in Windows 10. There are much newer versions, but for some reason, the old driver
works the best.



1) Download the driver.

2) right click the file to extract it to a folder of the same name (do not double-click as the automatic installation will fail)

3) double-click on folder Audio4.8.0.0, then double-click again on subfolder Audio4.8.0.0 if present

4) double-click on folder BD1-BH1

5) double-click on folder VXP64

6) recommend to double-click on file BD16HAa.inf to check if your sound Hardware ID is listed under [Conexant.NTAMD64], should be HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_14F1&DEV_5047&SUBSYS_1179FF31

7) close BD16HAa.inf file if opened in step 6, then simply double-click Setup64.exe

8) restart system (although audio may work right away, always a good idea)



See Audio 4.8.8.0.zip Download is located on the Toshiba Support page:

SYNAPTIC TOUCHPAD: If your P100/P105 has a dual Synaptic touchpad like mine, the driver does work in Windows 10, BUT you still need the utility to make it work.

Download:
Toshiba Touchpad



Here's the thing with the Toshiba file, when you save it or run it, it unzips the folder into the TEMP folder. When you go to run it, the main setup will work. In case the autorun does not work, here's what you need to do:
1) Change you folder selection so you can show hidden folders & files
2) After unzipping the file, open
C:\Users\"YOURNAME"\AppData\Local\Temp\Synantec Touchpad.temp
3) Click on "Setup" icon to run the file. (This file worked just fine on my P105-S9722 machine)

PCMCIA/Express Card/SD (TI) CARD READER - This driver will allow the PCMCIA, Express Card & SD Readers work normally on Windows 10.


There is issue with the Texas Instruments PCIxx12 Integrated FlashMedia Controller. I did find a driver the does work:

Nvidia Video Card - After loading the OS, the maximum resolution on the native drivers is only 1024 X 768. In order to get the maximum resolution of 1440 X 900, a NVidia driver is required.

Download:
Nvidia GeForce Release 179

Once this is loaded, use Windows Updates to download the most recent drivers. Windows 10 can use the older Vista driver. It is a good idea to download the NVidia GeForce Experience so that newer drivers can be installed:

Nvidia GeForce Experience


If after the program is installed and you can't get the 1440 X 900 resolution, then you will need to manually install the driver.


1) Go to Control Panel, then select Device Manager
2) Select "Display Adapter"
3) If the NVIDIA GeForce Go 7900 GS driver is NOT displayed, then right click on the current driver,
4) Select "Update Driver Software"
5) Select Browse my computer for driver software to manually install driver.
6) Put in this address: C:\NVIDIA\WinVista64\179.48\IS\Display, then press "Browse..." button
7) Click OK when the "Display" folder is highlighted
8) Click "Next" button and wait for driver to load
9) If it does NOT work, repeat steps 3-8. If it does work, restart computer

Once restarted, screen should automatically go to 1440 X 900


Fingerprint Reader (Biometrics Devices) - The Upek driver only goes up to Windows 7, but Windows 10 does have a native driver through AuthenTec that does work. The Toshiba fingerprint utility will be needed in order to user the
fingerprint reader. The Toshiba Utility can be downloaded here:

Upek
Fingerprint Driver 5.8.0.4024


The utility should work with the native driver.

That's pretty much it for the basic drivers. I did not include LAN or Wireless Drivers.

Finally make sure the most recent Bios are installed v4.70:

There are attachments and links, but let me know if anyone is not able to download or use any of these links posted.

Current Issues & Observations: After I shut the computer down, when I open the screen, the computer automatically turn on. I haven't figured that out yet, but I'm sure I'll post a fix in the near future. The computer definitely boots much faster
compared to Windows 7 and I've upgraded the older spinner drive with a Sata III SSD Drive. Even with only 4GB of memory and the first generation Duo Core processor, P105-S9722 is still running well.


Just understand that Windows 10 does require some resources and updates are slow (even with SSD drive) due the old dual processor and RAM


As of November 2016, I am using Windows 10 Pro 64 bit version 1607. It's nice to know that even though the old P100/P105 systems do not support anything over Windows Vista, we can use the contemporary software on a system almost 10 years old.

Good luck.
