Hello

You can order original recovery disc for your model on https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx

If you want to use WXP install all necessary drivers, Toshiba tools and utilities from Toshiba driver download page. You can find it on the top of this page under “Top support sites”.

If you have more questions you are welcome.

Hey,

I think sound doesn’t work because you have no drivers installed therefore and also for SM bus controller you have to download the driver on Toshiba page.

http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > Support & Downloads > Download Drivers
Archive > Equium (Notebooks) > Equium L Series > Equium L40 > PSL41E

But you will see that there are no XP drivers available but what you can do is using the PSL49E model number that supports Windows XP. Usually there is no big difference between these models and the drivers should work on your system too.

For SM bus controller you have to install the chipset driver and for sound card the sound driver but latter requires Service Pack 3.
