[LIB] W2000 drivers gone from Philip's website, or never there?
Date: Wed, 05 Oct 2005 06:49:15 + From: "Matthew Hanson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: W2000 drivers gone from Philip's website, or never there? From: "Matthew Hanson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Special EPR drivers for a 110 running W2000? I don't remember having to install anything like that. I thought W2000 already had them. But my short lived experience ended at the end of last years. So my memory is fuzzy. That's Philip's expertise. But I see no mention of EPR drivers on his site: http://home.hccnet.nl/pr.nienhuis/Windows.html Matter of fact, I don't see any mention of the W2000 drivers for the Lib 110 on that URL in this note that I thought I found on Philips website last year: - Windows 2000. Some files that you will need to install windows 2000 ( win2k ) on a libretto 100 (or 100ct) or 110 (and its variations.) tosacp2k.exe tosutil2k.exe w2kpwrx1.exe Strangely only one of these files are available from the Toshiba web site, while all three were written and published by Toshiba! Note: When all three are installed you are able to stop win2k from slowing the processor. ( cpu power management as the battery drops ) Also it restores the bios config to control panel, and allows configuration of the brightness of the display. Note on infrared: If you want to use an infrared mobile phone (like my nokia 8310e) via irda, you will need to go to add new hardware and find infrared serial port, this will install a new device for connecting via serial. - I'm confused now as to just where I found that note and related drivers. Maybe Philip sent me there in an off-list email back when. Philip? Still, I find no mention of W2000 drivers anywhere for the 100/110 EPR.

Date: Wed, 05 Oct 2005 06:01:08 + From: "Matthew Hanson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: RE: [LIB] Just got a 50ct From: greg ehrendreich <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I just got a 50ct from my sister. Stock, no upgrades. Pretty cool. But it comes sans floppy, sans cradle, (but it does have the headphone adapter...). With working (though kinda short life-span) battery and AC adapter. My landlord has a 110, with a cradle, but also no floppy. The cradle is not backwards compatible, of course. anyhow, I pretty much have two generations of these guys to play with, if I really knew what to do with them. Anyhow here's where I've (barely) gotten so far with the 50: I can't get it to install the drivers for my Belkin 802.11b card (f5d6020 ver.2), or run a hell of a lot of anything actually. I think the 95 install is whacked and there really isn't any way to fix it, far as I can tell. Just tells me that I'm missing .dll's every time I try to do anything. Check to make sure that's not a cardbus Belkin card. The 50 only supports a 16 bit bus, and cardbus requires the 32 bit bus of the 100/110 models. Check my recent post on this very subject, a recommended Belkin card, and how to identify a cardbus PC card: http://www.mail-archive.com/libretto@basiclink.com/msg15742.html BTW: You'll have a lot fewer problems with drivers if you install W98SE on your system, as it comes out of the box with many that support hardware of that 'later early' vintage of such equipment. I'd like to just install linux onto it, but all the instructions I can seem to find online use a boot floppy. There's quite a few people knowledgeable about Linux for Libbys on the list. I'm not one. Maybe someone else can chime in here. I have the following assets to work with: 3com megahertz (3ccfe574bt) lan pc card and dongle CF I/II adapter and about a gig of CF cards Any suggestions for what the best way to go about attacking this sucker? Can I install an OS off of a CF card? Some DSL-derivative maybe? I don't think the very limited Lib BIOS will permit booting off anything but the FDD and HDD. Alternative question: If I were to spend any money at all, should I? Can I buy a floppy for it somewhere? Would that help? Does it matter? You can get FDDs on EBay for $15 and less these days. They do come in handy when you can't boot off of a HDD. I don't use mine much these days, but it's been the only way I've managed to fix a number of problems in the past several years.

You have to have the power adapter connected to the EPR to enable USB. I use a USB2 PC card for a much faster transfer rate when copying large multimedia files.

Yup. And I've found that the older style cap on the 50/70 models work better on the 100/110 models too for some reason. The 100/110 caps I've seen are more 'rubbery', esp. on the front surface, whereas the 50/70 seem firmer, and have a rough, textured surface. With the paper disks, the mouse works a lot better. Though I find I occasionally have to lift the mouse and rotate it a bit to reseat it for some reason.

Soimetimes it behaves as yours does carval. But more often it just starts executing right-click menu items as I drag it around the desktop. I >thought< it's been conflicting with the Yahama sound drivers, as I never had the problem with my TDK PC sound card. But recently I've had the problem with both sound drivers, and without them. My copy of W98SE is a year old, and I've been having a number of other problems, some that result in the system freezing.
