Like tht i have to think of upgrading it already since its faster. Any word of advice or notes that i should watch out before i do the upgrade? I have never done bios upgrade before actually so naturally a bit worried.

Hello guys, I'm trying to help a friend of mine to search for Toshiba Satellite M200-A412 XP Drivers. I'm not quite sure, but anyone can confirm with me if this website (which found from the 1st post through Teledynamics website): http://www.pc.toshiba-asia.com/support/downloads/ has all the XP Drivers which needed for Toshiba Satellite M200-A412? Any error or problem occur during the Windows XP installation? Thanks in advance

Oh, that's the good news for XP Drivers part but isn't really good for the external floppy thingy  ... actually my fren is now studying in UK and most of his project applications having compatibility problem with Vista  ... do the BIOS hav the option to boot from external drive so maybe he could install the SATA driver from USB Flash Drive or USB HDD?
