I don't think >the modem is CardBus, but it COULD be. Will I hurt anything by trying it? >I don't want to damage the motherboard or anything. It does fit, by the way. The PCMCIA slots on the laptop are NOT cardbus. Easy way to tell ... if the top of the connector end has a gold colored strip with a row of 8 'bumps' on it, it's Cardbus. Also, if you look at the connector end, both Cardbus and 16 bit cards have 2 ledges on the left and 1 on the right however the height of the right hand ledge on a 16 bit card is the same width as that on the left whilst on Cardbus its twice as high. Thats why you can't fit a Cardbus card into a 16 bit slot. For instance: 16 bit: _________ _____ |__ o o / / o o | __| o o / / o o |__ |________/ /________| <--- Same height on both sides. Cardbus: _____.___ __.__ <--- Bumps on the top of the connector. |__ o o / / o o |__ __| o o / / o o | |________/ /________| <--- Double height on the right. >3. How do I adjust the screen brightness? The only screen brightness adjustments are through software (the 'hairy lightbulb' that appears when you install the Toshiba power management tools for instance). See the archives for other discussions about alternative programs (eg. under Linux).
