Unfortunately, the Toshiba Satelite A135-S2246 was never designed to run XP, only Vista. Which is why you can't find any drivers for XP. The nearest you can get is to find a laptop running XP SP2 that is using the same LAN (ethernet controller) and WLAN (wireless ethernet controller), and see if they will work.

Here are the drivers I found for XP (please check which one's you are trying to install):

Atheros WiFi card driver:
http://www.wireless-driver.com/download/atheros/2007-7-23/Atheros-ar5bxb6-AR5424-mini-PCI-E-Wireless-Card-Driver-Download.htm

Intel WiFi card driver:
http://downloadcenter.intel.com/default.aspx
You will need to search for the card that you have.

LAN (ethernet controller):
http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=6&PFid=6&Level=5&Conn=4&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false#1
You can pick third or fourth from top depending on your preference.

Please remember that Toshiba, Microsoft, Atheros, Realtek, Intel and especially myself accept no responsibilty for what may, or may not happen when installing drivers not specifically designed for your system. All that said, I hope it works for you.

Downgrade Vista Home Basic to Xp SP2

first,you have to know who manufactured those hardware liek for example a vga card, if its nvidia then you should check their site and look for the appropriate driver now if you can't figure out what are their brand, you caninstall them through automatic searching just go to device manager and right click on the icon that needs to be installed then search automatically if still doesn't worked out, open your cpu and check the hardware in that way, you can easily distinguish who manufactured that hardware

Toshiba Satellite A135-S2246 xp drivers

I have the same laptop and searched the web for XP drivers. From what I found, the ones you are looking for are these:

Atheros client - ta6wlanutilax.exe 10,380 kB.
Controls - sa1058tctrlx.exe 1,506 kB.
NIC - PCI_Install_5663_20070216 (folder) 17.7 MB.
Sound - audio 3-driver_audio_realtek_25234a.exe 24,949 kB.
Wireless - Atheros_5_0_0_107 (folder) 10.1 MB.

At least you have some file names to search for. When I found this info, I was thinking of switching to XP, as you are, but I increased the RAM to 2GB and Vista works fine for me now. Especially if you turn of User Access Control, which fixes Vista's annoying pop-ups problem. (Control Panel, Windows Security Center, Other Security Settings.)
