Meanwhile, broke down and bought one of the Hitachi 60GB 7200 RPM drives and
installed it. Works great!
Only issue now relates to my partitioning new drive with PartitionMagic
before installing Win98SE. Put drive in external FireWire case and connected
it to my other laptop to partition.
What exactly did you do with the new HDD connected via a firewire case to your other notebook? You said you partitioned it.
* While partitioning, did you allow for the Lib BIOS hibernation space at the 8GB boundry on the new HDD?
* Did you load the Windows 98SE installatioin files onto the new drive via your other notebook, then put the new HDD in the Libretto and install the OS?
* Did you install drive overlay on the new HDD like EZ-Drive to enable extended Int13 BIOS calls?
While Windows/Apps are working OK, when I tried using DriveImage to make backup image to my new EXP CDRW-2400 drive, I get error message #626:
Now is this using the new 60GB HDD in the Libretto set up with W98SE as above or some other method, and imaging to your old HDD in the EXP CDRW-2400?
If so... goto: $#^%@
If not, are you trying to image a partition on your old HDD to the new HDD in the EXP CDRW-2400?
$#^%@< I'm not familiar with DriveImage. Does it work in DOS, Windows, or both? If you're working in DOS from your Libretto, your problem may be that your Libretto can't see HHDs larger than 8GB in DOS without drive overlay.
Your other notebook seems to be capable of seeing the entire 60GB of the new HDD. Have you tried putting the 60GB HDD in the firewire case connected to your other notebook, and running DriveImage from there?
