Windows 10: How do I install drivers while installing windows 10 on an old Toshiba Satellite?

I have a toshiba satellite C870D that had a corrupt HD. I've replaced the HD, and now im trying to install windows 10 from a DVD, but it is requiring some drivers before the install will go ahead. I dont think windows 10 drivers exist for this machine. Am I out of luck?

OK, so it's not browser-specific, but it seems to happen only when you are downloading. That suggests it's related to your Wi-Fi driver, as it was for this thread....

According to Toshiba support you may have either Realtec or Atheros wireless. Which do you have? The latest drivers they list for your model are Win 8.1 for both types. If you put your serial number in here it should tell you the specific type appropriate for your machine.

You may be able to use the Win 8.1 drivers.

You may have had had a driver update recently, it may be that rolling back to the previous driver will help.

My Toshiba L750-16L has Atheros Wi-Fi and works perfectly with the Microsoft-supplied driver.
