Ive found an interesting and fruitful way of getting obscure drivers. Since I installed XP64 on my Toshiba, I've been finding it hard tracking down some drivers for it.
For the few drivers that eluded my search, I devised a simple solution.
Go into the device manager.
Right click on an unknown device.
Open the properties
Switch to the details tab
Open the panel to show the hardware ID
Copy and paste the ID's into Google along with your OS version.
Profit!!!
Most of the search results got me inside the INI file for the device drivers, from there you can try to move from different levels and find the drivers.
After you've downloaded and installed the drivers do a driver update just in case.
Note: Some devices had to be disabled then re-enabled before they would work.
