    Can someone tell me or better yet link me to the proper driver for the network controller on an X205-S9349 using x64? I've searched high and low and can't find it anywhere. (Of course the fact that I'm not 100% sure what I'm looking for might be a factor :( )

    It would probably be best to run Everest or a similar system scan solution to enumerate your components and let you know exactly which drivers to look for. I just went through the same process when looking for 64 bit drivers for an A305D-S6851 (which Toshiba said does not support 64 bit, even though it has a 64 bit processor). BTW, 64 bit Vista runs fine on it, but there were some problems with the Toshiba-supplied software. I found that most of the drivers originally supplied with the computer were dual 32/64 bit drivers, but some drivers that did not apply to my computer were included (most notably software vs Motorola modem drivers).
