It's listed under W95 drivers for the L50 and L70. I wonder if these files ARE at the Tosh USA website, but lost because of the new dropdown menu filefind method they've set up. >http://www.amherst.co.uk/libfiles.htm Yes... I found this file: L7095ct.zip - there that has all the same Toshiba Utilities too. >http://www.vobis.de/bbs/firmen/toshiba/libre/ > >This last site's W95 L50/L70 files are all dated 04.08.98. And yes... the file 57utl95.exe is there too. I wonder if it's just me... but I sure can't find these files on the US Toshiba site. >I didn't realize that Toshiba had started to discontinue the older drivers. >Their Europe sight simply goes to a blank page now when you click on "Old >Drivers". That's interesting. But the first site you list above seems to me a Toshiba Germany website, isn't it? It's harfd to tell as it seem to me an all-Euro language site. >Are you using the W98 Power Saver? have you gotten any Lib drivers to >work? Yeah... I got all of those old w95 and W98 drivers working fine, as they've been working on other HDDs I've had. But this Xircom modem, AND a 3COM modem I tested and sent back, both shut the system down during boot if they're inserted. Strangely it only happens on my 70CT, and not my older 50CT, which seems to have no problems with the Xircom. I wonder if there's any vague chance it may have something to do with the combo modems' drivers, and the MMX CPU that the 70 has and not the 50, as Neil pointed out was the problem with the Mandrake installation. I'm really just fishing here. But it's easy enough to pop the modem out before shutting the system down, and the power saving features of that old driver are a must for battery power saving. So I'll probably install the old driver and live with it.
