I'm trying to find some, but so far I am not able to.  I'll keep looking though.

 

One other thing.  How technically proficient are you with working on computers?  We might be able to find drivers from the chipset manufacturers, but some of the Toshiba Specific Utilities might not be available.  That could make the system run at less than optimal condition.  As much as it pains me to say this as I know how much better and easier XP runs overall (as long as one has all of the drivers and utilities), you would probably be better off going back to the Default Vista Installation that this laptop came with.

This should work for the Graphics Driver.

 

One of these should work for the Audio.  I'm not 100% certain which you need but I would start with the High Def driver in the middle.

 

 

 

Not sure which Bluetooth or WiFi chipset you have so I can't point you to one for those.

 

I can't find the base Mobile Intel® 943GML Express Chipset motherboard driver. 

 

I really think that returning to the originally installed Operating System is you best choice.

The above link will give you the up to date graphics, Chipset, and Intel Matrix Storage drivers for the 943GML. The rest I'll look a bit more.
