I've forgotten a number of times, and you may have to take the computer apart if you forget. Other than that, just slide it in there after removing the door.

You might be able to get an 000 posidriv/philips screwdriver. Don't get cheapy sets though - you'll strip the screws if you're not careful. On the 50/70, the disc is on the left of the case. Just undo the two screws on the right hand side base and remove the little flap. The disc pulls out using the attached handle. Swap that to the new disc - it has to be the right way up so expect two goes :) Make sure the new disk is no fatter than the old. On a 50/70, if it is, you can remove the back completely and remove the small blue spacers stuck to it before putting the new disc in. Failure to do this can crack the PCB in the memory area.

110 enhanced port replicator problem
Date: Tue, 27 Mar 2001 02:26:37 -0500 (EST) From: Dan Lanciani [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: 110 enhanced port replicator problem I'm having a funny problem with an enhanced port replicator that I just bought. I exchanged it once, but the new one does the same thing. However, a slightly older one that I have access to works fine. Often when I attempt to power on the Libretto in the dock the power light comes on but the disk light does not, and the system just sits there for as long as I have cared to wait. It doesn't even put up the Toshiba screen (which normally comes after one or two blinks of the disk light.) The reset button has no effect unless I first power down the dock. With power removed from the dock, the reset button causes the system to display the Toshiba screen (without the picture of the dock) and come up. The reset button itself also often provokes the hang if the dock is powered on. The problem seems to come in several levels of intensity. At first I though it might be heat related, but sometimes it works hot and fails when cool. When the system is being most cooperative several power cycles will work, but a reset will often hang. When it is being less cooperative only one in several power cycles will work without hanging and every reset will hang unless the power to the dock is off. Sometimes the Toshiba screen with dock picture is corrupt with extra red pixels here and there, and "Starting Windows 98" comes up as "arting Windows 98." Usually once DOS or Windows is running everything seems to be fine, but sometimes the Windows screen becomes corrupt and Windows hangs (even here powering down the dock seems to unhang Windows, though it crashes soon thereafter). The two new docks that display these problems have serial numbers beginning with X8. The older one that works perfectly no matter how many times I reset it, power-cycle it, or leave it running for hours has a serial number beginning with 98. The Libretto by itself never shows any such problems. I have tried updating the Libretto BIOS to several versions including 8.00, but it has not helped. Has anyone seen anything like this? Could the newer docks be somehow slightly incompatible with an "older" 110? (It can't be much older as neither the computer nor the dock was made for too long.) I don't know to what extent the computer's internal bus is extruded out through the expansion connector, but it almost feels like a bus timing issue. I vaguely remember something that suggested that the dock has some non-volatile configuration memory. The note talked about changing a dock's identification number so Windows could associate two different hardware configurations with two different docks. Unfortunately, I can't find this note anymore. If there is non-volatile memory, perhaps it is somehow misconfigured?
