Back to where this thread started... My original post was:

:Poking around my L100, I found this registry key referenced under Problem 
:Devices in System Information:   HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\enum\ACPI\*TOS6200\0 
:with 
:the notation :"Driver Not Installed"

:Ever since I installed W98se, I've had the big yellow question mark in 
Device 
:Manager, labeled "Other Device" with no additional detail.  I assume it is 
:related to the Problem Device.  I did a Google search on the registry entry 
:and came up with a post on Xin Yeng's site, 
:http://www.fixup.net/talk/archive/200202/00000744.htm where there's a 
:reference to this Tosh driver: z6kacp2.exe, titled Toshiba ACPI Common 
:Modules for Windows 98SE, 2000 (v3.00.07;02-01-2002; 1.4M).

:I've downloaded it and will probably try installing it, but hoped to get 
some 
:input from list members first.  Has anyone seen this problem and/or 
installed 
:this ACPI patch?  Thanks.

I ran the Tosh utility, and the big yellow ? is gone from Device Manager!  
And msconfig shows No Problem Devices!  A tentative hoorah!

Now the howevers:  after the last reboot of this utility's install, there was 
a new icon on the taskbar, next to the hairy lightbulb.  Hovering the mouse 
over it gave the message "Stop SD Card" which I tried to do, but was denied.  
So ran msconfig>startup and found 2 new lines: 000StTHK and ThorKEY.  After 
unchecking those and rebooting, the mystery icon is gone, and so far 
everything *seems* to be OK.

I have a fresh image waiting to be restored, just in case things go sideways.
