Hi guys, I'm new to this list, so first of all greetings to everyone from Hungary. I recently bought a 4-years-old Libretto 110 CT (first one in my life). I installed WinME and the downloadable stuff from Toshiba, and everything looks/works fine so far. I'd like to ask a few (presumably simple) questions: (1) What is better for the Libretto in terms of machine/battery life span when it is not used and shut down (e. g. overnight): if I leave the AC connected (two LEDS lighting), or if I isolate it from all current (no LED lights)? (2) There are 2-3 pinkish-colored vertical pixel columns on the left edge of the screen. Is this a permanent fault of the screen (the machine is 4 years old), or something can be done with it? (3) The machine _sometimes_ locks up when coming back from hibernation. The screen remains black with the cursor blinking in the left upper quarter of the screen. The only way to come out of this is to push the reset button. This only happens sometimes, with no obvious reason. Is there any experience with this? (I realize from recent posts that suspend/hibernate is a "less-than-obvious" feature of the Librettos.) (4) My machine has BIOS 7.30, and I downloaded the 8.10 version. Is it worthwhile to replace it? Anything particular to watch out when doing a BIOS update? Can I save/restore the previous one in case something fails? Can it be done safely on a fully installed machine, or better on a virgin one? (5) Is there an Email address where Toshiba service engineers would answer tech questions? (Guarantee is over.) Last words: I'm not a native English speaker, and one of my favorite expressions is the "hairy lightbulb" - I adore it like the Libretto! :-) Thanks and cheers, Zoltan -- Zoltan Gyorgypal, PhD - http://zolea.com - mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ************************************************************** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://libretto.basiclink.com/archive - Archives http://www.picante.com/~gtaylor/portable/faq.html - FAQ -------TO UNSUBSCRIBE------- Reply to any of the list messages.
