Another thing I haven't had much problem with with either the 50 or 70... though it may be because of the programs I use and having nothing connected extrenally except a mouse on this 70. I never used an external one on the 50. For a while it wouldn't hibernate after all the MP3s stopped playing in MusicMatch... But I've gone away and forgotten the system playing MP3s, and have come back to have to press the power button and wake up from hibernation >>From: "Pres Waterman" There is a distinct difference between my 50US/50J >>and my 110US.

Indeed! >>From: "Pres Waterman" 3 The "Toshiba Power Saver Driver for Windows >>98"- what does it do? It is NOT the hairy lightbulb.

The "Power Saver" I have in my W98 setup IS the hairy lightbulb driver. Might you be referring here to what I have in W98 (and is part of all W98 installations I've seen) that's called "Power Management"? In there you can set several profiles defining different timeouts to set "System Standby", "Turn off monitor, and "Turn off hard disks". The order that all that is supposed to work in always baffled me. I've seen several systems (notebooks and desktop PCs) where none of this worked very well at all.
