ASUS only offers drivers for Windows 7, not XP
http://support.asus.com/Download.aspx?SLanguage=en&m=K53E&p=3&s=252

 

Obviously, and this is the exact reason why i started this thread.
Supposedly drivers still can be found by device IDs that i have provided.

 

I will look for some of the drivers but you can also get info on driver location at PCIdatabase.com

 

Hi my friend , welcome to MG's :major

follow this : download all drivers with IE save them to C:\Users\gerer\Downloads - afterwards you must navigate to installation path - install the first driver , when the process is completed reboot your machine - repeat this movement in each installation !! :wave

I came across these drivers. Hopefully they will work. Some are supposedly compatible with XP. They show Windows 7 in the file name of some but I looked at one and XP was in the zip file. You may want to look further into it. This is the best I could come up with.

Chipset: Should take care of the SMBus:

Ethernet: INF file (Update through Device Manager)
Atheros 8151 xp-l1c-1.0.0.45-whql.zip

Wireless Network Controller: INF file (update through Device Manager)
Atheros AR5B95 Wireless LAN 802.11 a/b/g/n Controller xp3264-9.2.0.104-whql.zip

PCI Simple Communications Controller: Should work for XP.

Huge thanks ! Everything was installed properly except:

There seems to be a critical error when driver tries to install itself. At first i tried to install this one (Bluetooth_Atheros_Quanta_Win7_64_Z740120.zip) but there was an error and then a tried to update the driver through Device Manager, and blue screen appeard. Also Windows didnt want to start after that, so i removed the driver in Safe Mode. Currently, this device is marked always in yellow and doesn't work. I tried to install these drivers too:

Bluetooth_Atheros_6.04.004.1_XPx86_A.zip
Bluetooth_Atheros_6.4.5.14_XPx86_A.zip
Bluetooth_Atheros_7.2.0.60_XPx86_A.zip

device is detected but driver can't be installed (critical error).
Is there a way to clean the system from Bluetooth drivers completely ?

Also, a different question. Should i update the driver for SATA AHCI Controller ?

Intel(R) Mobile Express Chipset SATA AHCI Controller
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1C03&SUBSYS_11471043&REV_05
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1C03&SUBSYS_11471043
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1C03&CC_010601
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1C03&CC_0106

current driver date: 2010-11-06
current driver ver: 10.1.0.1008

but there seems to be few new ones available on intel site:

http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=20768&lang=eng

Should i install any of those drivers ?

 

I think your bluetooth driver crapped out because it was a Window7 64bit driver and you are looking for XP 32bit. I will continue to look. Maybe falconattack will find something also.

You can try updating the SATA driver. If it does not work you can always roll back or do a system restore.

Edit: you may want to hold off on the SATA driver. XP does not have native SATA drivers. If you did not slipstream them into the install disk, you might bluescreen after install. When you go into BIOS, is the controller set to something like IDE mode. If your Device Manager already shows a SATA AHCI device then updating the drivers will not be a problem.

Edit: if the above does not work you can try any of the ACER x86 drivers here.

I've decided to disable bluetooth completely in BIOS. SATA driver works fine. Now i have a question about wireless utility that can replace windows embedded configuration for wifi. Is there anything you can recommend me ? The WLAN card i have is atheros ar9002wb. Thanks.

 

I am not sure if this utility will work for your chip as it is fairly new. Have you tried manually setting up the adapter in Windows.

See this thread. I believe the last post is how to use on a non-toshiba laptop. Basically keep extracting until you have a folder called 'XpUtl'. Then run the setup in that folder.

 

I am very happy to have come across this thread as I have k53E and wanted to run under windows XP. Anyway recommended drivers have worked well other than the wireless nic driver.
In my case the built in nic seems to be intel centrino n 100 and the driver, which can be downloaded from intel, Wireless_14.3.1_Dx32.exe. It is also necessary to set sata to IDE (not ahci) in the bios before installing windows xp, which I have installed to separate partition. It's good when things finally work.
Many thanks

 

Hi friend!

I just bought this notebook 1 week ago and this time I can't install a wXP 32bit or 64bit on this... All the time I receive diferent blue screen when I try to install.
Could you please tell How you got it? At lest tell me Which Windows are you using?



Thanks in advance,
