Subject: 50 CT Batteries & external hard disc drive.
Dear list members,
My standard 50ct battery is a PA2497UR with the extended battery a PA2498UR.
I have noticed that various suppliers list the standard 70ct battery as a
PA2452UR. Will this fit a 50ct ? Until I noticed the different part number
for the 70ct battery I was under the impression that batteries for the
50/60/70 where all the same !
I have an external hard drive case for my old 810 mb hard drive. This works
very well and is a "Standard IDE/ESDI hard Disk Controller". Pure 'plug and
play' with no extra drivers required.
Is it possible to access this drive if I boot the libretto from the floppy
drive with a start up disc, then swop the floppy for the external drive ? I
guess what I am asking is where can I find the necessary DOS drivers for a
"Standard IDE/ESDI hard Disk Controller".
The reason I wish to try this, is to carry out a clean install of 98SE, with
the 98SE CD copied onto the external drive. I do not have access to an
external CD drive, only by direct cable connection to my work laptop CD
drive.
Thankyou,
Michael Heathcote
