HELP NEEDED with thosiba satellite L750-L16

emoore1223

Hi, I need help. I had a problem with my laptop which led to me having to reinstall windows 7 off a USB.
But when I reinstalled I got the message saying that the system was unable to find a Ethernet controller or network controller, this means I can't access the internet.
Can anyone suggest a easy way to fix this, I'm no computer genius, so was wondering if this was even fixable????

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!
I'm afraid that I've completly messed up my laptop,

Thanks in advance for all coments, thanks

You will need access to another computer and also a USB key, you need to download the drivers to a USB stick and install them on the laptop.

Go To:
http://www.toshiba.ie/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=IE

Select
Notebooks
Satellite
Satellite L Series
Satellite L750
The short Model number should be on a label at the bottom of the laptop.
Select Windows 7 32 or 64 bit depending on what you have installed.

You will be able to get the LAN drivers there.

The wireless driver you can get from this page but it depends on the type of card (this may also be on a label on the bottom, sometimes you have a label with the wireless brand written on it)

https://aps.toshiba-tro.de/wlan/?page=downloads

If you are unsure you could download the 4 drivers for the 4 different brands and try them 1 at a time.

The chances are you need to install more drivers than just the network cards to get the laptop running properly.

Right click on My Computer and click properties, on the left hand side click on Device Manager, you will see a list of devices that need drivers with a yellow exclamation next to each.

Double Click on each one, click on the details tab and select "Hardware IDs" Each device has a Vendor and Device ID, post the list here and I will tell you which ones to download. (this can also be used to find the brand of Wireless card using this site: http://pcidatabase.com/)
