I'm looking to buy a new laptop, preferably a smaller one, either 15" or smaller. It needs to be able to hold it's own as a gaming laptop but have decent battery life. I'm currently looking at the M1210 and am looking to spend no more then 3300. Does anyone have any suggestion for others I should look at? Brand and model number would be nice, thanks!

A neighbor's son came over with this laptop & wanted to know if I could get the USB port working.

Checked Device Manager & there is NO listing of USB, so I did a Find New Hardware & it found nothing.

Checked Toshiba's website for info and\or drivers, nothing was mentioned about USB support\driver...

I did download & install EVERY update available for the laptop, but still no USB is listed & the USB port doesn't recognize anything I plug into it

I also did a "Add New Hardware Manually" & selected "Infrared" then selected "built-in laptop device" then I selected "Toshiba" & Windows loaded the software.

NOTE: This laptop has Infrared & USB port on one module that plugs INTO the motherboard.

Anyway, I rebooted & got a popup message "PCI Universal Serial Port found, click next to install driver" Which I did but it did NOT find a driver. I tried EVERY Folder & EVERY SubDirectory but still "No driver found"

Now the Infrared shows as working but STILL NO USB PORT!

How does that funktion?
Shall some operating system be installed on exernal HDD (in case that primary disk on notebook already has Win XP?
Is it as simple, when external HDD has USB 2.0, as connecting any other device such as photo, camera, phone, USB stick/mp3 player? Or is there some differences or difficulties?

Thanks for help! ;)
