I just don't get it - how can C: and D: and E: see the whole 8GB, 1GB, and 20GB respectively??? No Win'2K, no fancy BIOS- enhancing software, absolutely nothing... I'm *guessing* here, but didn't you previously partition the drive in the sizes you mention? Indeed I did, Neil! - with Win'2K If that's the case, I'd suspect that windows sees the partition info and calculates sizes accordingly. If the directory info is at the front of the disc, as it would be if you've just rebuilt everything, then it will be able to read that without problems and probably some, or even all, of the files. It might even be able to write new files,(95 wouldn't) but I'd be very careful about using it without testing. Sounds to me like you could be right on the mark there... I've noticed FDISK report a FAT16 partition as FAT12, and likewise report absolutely full partitions as 1% or simply % - both in the 8MB+ area DIR works; I suspect that COPY has problems (I wasn't testing for that specifically when I noticed something strange, so I can't be more conclusive). --- I've spent the entire day (and then some) on this and while my understanding is far from complete, I am very confident that the bit I'm about to relate is definitely correct. I appreciate I'm re-inventing the wheel and verifying what was known all along, so please don't read on beyond this point unless you're either very bored or very skeptical ;-) If you've got a single big partition on your Libretto (ie the BIOS hibernate area around 8MB is unreserved) then ***YOUR DATA IS AT RISK***. I've painstakingly verified this for myself (using somewhat crude techniques and learning as I go), hands on at my own Libretto 110, and as far as I'm concerned this is the absolute bottom line. The problem will arise if/as/when your Libretto decides to hibernate without intervention from Windows - for example, I've seen this happen when there has been some problem booting; if your Libretto decides it's too hot; and so on. Let's call it a spontaneous BIOS hibernation - it's something that can still occur while running Win'2K, even though Win'2K itself has an alternative hibernation policy. You can't disable the spontaneous BIOS hibernation functionality, and it will trash your data if you've got one partition spanning the sector in question - despite the fact that everything worked OK for however long prior to encountering the problem. Basically, you're sitting on a ticking bomb... I made an initial partition as big as the Libretto could see (7.77GB - 8,348,737,536 bytes) and then experimented with other partitions following on from that. Basically you get 7MB increments; 70MB is definitely too small, and the next one up - (78.2MB - 82,073,600 bytes) is the smallest available option that will do the job (presuming 64MB memory). I suspect the Libretto hibernates from the furthest point it can see and writes backwards, towards the beginning of the drive, if that makes sense - so if you don't reserve enough space, the area that get trashed is some way into the following partition. I've followed my 78.2MB partition with a small (7.81MB - 8,196,096 bytes - smallest you can have / has to be FAT16) partition and filled it with .JPGs so that there are zero bytes free. Now, when I boot from cold straight to a DOS prompt and hibernate, the 78.2MB partition suffers heavy data loss, and everything in the 7.81MB partition immediately after that is fine. I've tested this, and similar variations, repeatedly - and yes, my brain still hurts! _ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://libretto.basiclink.com/archive - Archives http://www.picante.com/~gtaylor/portable/faq.html - FAQ ---TO UNSUBSCRIBE--- Reply to any of the list messages.

Re: my brain hurts [LIB]
Date: Sat, 09 Mar 2002 21:00:35 + From: Fubar Libretto [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: my brain hurts [LIB] Actually (major speculation mode) it occurs to me that as w98 only uses the bios at initialisation, that is might be quite happy once things have booted. Anyone got a big disk to experiment? That would be me ;-) OK, here's what I did:- - Libretto 110, 4.3GB HDD, Win'98, no other software involved - external HDD caddy with PCcard connection - 30GB Fujitsu HDD - 3 partitions, all FDISK'd in L110 as follows:- - 1 - 7.77GB FAT32 - FDISK'd from DOS with Win'98 boot diskette - 2 - 78.2MB FAT32 - FDISK'd with Win'2K - 3 - remainder (20+ GB) FAT32 - FDISK'd with Win'2K 7.77GB = 8,348,737,536 bytes 78.2MB = 82,073,600 bytes The Libretto running Win'98 / Windows Explorer showed all three partitions on the external HDD(!!!) straight away when the PCcard was inserted. I copied 3GB of data (39,792 files, 2,888 folders) from the (internal) 4.3GB HDD to the first (sub-8GB) partition on the (external) 30GB HDD - no problems. Then, on the external 30GB drive - still using Win'98 / Windows Explorer - I copied the same 3GB of data from the first (sub-8GB) partition to the third (last 20GB) partition - but this time a handful of files were rejected as uncopyable - bad links / bad files names. A short while after this was completed, while playing around and looking for signs of anything being amiss, all three partitions of the external HDD disappeared from Windows Explorer and could not be persuaded to return no matter what. Trust me, I tried everything. Finally I removed the 4.3GB HDD from the Libretto, replaced it with the 30GB HDD and ran Win'2K - a check of the copied files threw up a further handful of errors on the third (last 20GB) partition. No problems were found with the external caddy setup when the 4.3GB HDD was subsequently installed and plugged into the PCcard slot of the Win'2K powered Libretto.

Trust me, I tried everything. Umm ... this sorta surprises me a bit ... have you tried the same trick (copying files around) when the HDD is in the libby? Yes - no problems. Someone correct me if I'm wrong but this sounds more like a problem with your PCMCIA drive caddy (perhaps a power problem?) as opposed to a file system problem ... the communications between your libby and the external drive controller getting messed up somehow such that the libby thinks one thing and the drive controller thinks another. Well I guess anything is possible. But as I said - I tried everything (removing and replacing each component; installing the PCcard before booting, after booting; checking the status of the PCcard and HDD drivers; etc etc etc) and none of the partitions on the 30GB HDD could be persuaded to come back. The moment I swapped the drives over, ie put the 30GB HDD back in the Libretto and the 4.3GB HDD in the caddy, everything (caddy and both drives) worked perfectly (except of course for the file errors later found on the over-8GB partition copied to using Win'98). _ Chat with friends online, try MSN Messenger: http://messenger.msn.com ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://libretto.basiclink.com/archive - Archives http://www.picante.com/~gtaylor/portable/faq.html - FAQ ---TO UNSUBSCRIBE--- Reply to any of the list messages.

It's not a good idea to rename it after installation. You will lose a lot of functionalities.

It's not a good idea to rename it after installation. You will lose a lot of functionalities. I don't understand this - what functionality would be lost, and why? A lot of shared system components are located in this folder. These components are usually registered in the registry. Unless you have tools to fix all those registry locations that point to this folder, you will have problems sooner or late. Those are the (registry etc) changes the various web pages discuss. Components like OE, IE, ODBC drivers and OLEDB drivers used by various applications are located here. Usually you won't notice any problem immediately. But eventually you'll. This is the primary reason why Microsoft insists you to install dual boot Windows OS in two different partitions because otherwise components for different OSs will override each other in Program Files folder. I learnt it hard way. I'm trying to get a handle on the issues... but I've no experience with dual-booting (then again I've no intention of having anything on this HDD other than Win'2K).

It's not a good idea to rename it after installation. You will lose a lot of functionalities. I don't understand this - what functionality would be lost, and why? Umm ... if you're only going to boot 1 OS then why do you need to rename program files? Win2k doesn't need to be in the first partition you know ... even if you remove whatever was there. Well, I can't see the advantage in having a directory name with a space in it - seems plain daft to me, and as there were occasions with Win'98 when I'd wished it wasn't there, I figure now is the time to do something about it. Another reason is... From: Michael Miller [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mine was to keep the OS separate from the applications, so I created another Programs folder on a separate partition, into which I install all the programs that give me a choice of where to install. This would seem to address the issues you've mentioned. So Michael - you actually have two? ie you didn't move/rename the original Program Files folder? From: David VanHorn [EMAIL PROTECTED] That's what I do as well. Windows, drivers, and system utils go in C, programs in D, and data in E. That way, I only back up E, everything else is re- installable, and the OS stuff is clearly delimited. If I loose D, I'm still up and running.

BIOS hibernate on big HDD [LIB]
Date: Sat, 09 Mar 2002 03:44:57 + From: Fubar Libretto [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: BIOS hibernate on big HDD [LIB] Where did my hibernate go??? I just ran a test and didn't get the expected result!!! Any suggestions? Here's what I did:- I've FDISK'd my 30GB HDD to the maximum size possible in my Libretto L110 - 7.79GB (FAT 32) Then I installed Win'2K, and added a second partition - 102MB (FAT 32) And then a third partition for the remainder - 20.5GB (FAT 32) I filled up the 102MB partition right to the brim with MP3's, then powered down completely, powered up to a DOS prompt (ie *not* to Windows) and then used the on/off switch to instigate a suspend-to-disk (hibernation). So this is supposed to be a BIOS hibernate... The hibernate animation appeared on screen accompanied by beeps, then the Libretto powered down. I powered on again, and the un-hibernate animation did its thing. So both hibernate and un-hibernate appeared to complete perfectly, and there were no error messages.

Big HDD + Win'2k - BIOS, formatting, IDE adapter, etc [LIB]
Date: Mon, 11 Feb 2002 12:51:29 + From: Fubar Libretto [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Big HDD + Win'2k - BIOS, formatting, IDE adapter, etc [LIB] At long last, I'm doing the deed - just picked up a new 30GB Fujitsu MHN2300AT in Kuala Lumpur to replace the OE 4.3GB HDD in my L110CT :-) My plan is:- - duplicate data content of existing drive to Internet Cafe LAN drive * update BIOS see Q2 below - remove existing HDD from Libretto - install new HDD in Libretto * boot from Win'98 recovery floppy see Q3 below * format entire bios-visible HDD (ie first 8.~GB) see Q3 below - remove new drive from Libretto * install new drive in Internet Cafe PC see Q4 below - copy entire Win'2K CD to new HDD see Q5 below - re-install new HDD in Libretto - run Win'2K installation from the new HDD - move copy of data content of old drive from LAN to new HDD Then, having retreated from the Internet cafe, delve into Win'2K to reserve the hibernation space at 8.~GB (starting from where the original in Libretto format left off - IIRC 71MB for Win'2K / 64MB RAM?) and then configure the HDD space over 8.~GB. I'm anticipating I'll eventually divide the sub 8.~ space into 3, and the over-8.~ space in two. It's a standard L110CT with 64MB memory, everything will be English language, and I'm hoping I'll have no problems as a result of my current dependance on mains power (my hi-cap battery is dead; the CMOS battery is AOK). Q1 - FAQ Has anyone written up a step-by-step guide to doing the Big HDD + Win'2K thing? Q2 - BIOS etc What's the latest on L110CT BIOS - I've been off-list for a while and I'm not up to date. Some time ago I downloaded (but have not installed) a copy of 7100tv81.exe (Ver:8.10 - Size:611,773 bytes - Posted:08/06/01 - Released:07/31/01) I have to update the BIOS first, right? You have to update the BIOS before install the Win2K so that it will install as ACPI computer rather than standard computer. And I'm right to take it that the BIOS is always backwards-compatible - ie I can upgrade the BIOS and I'll still be able to boot from either drive (4.3GB+Win'98 and 30GB+Win'2K respectively)? What other stuff should I be downloading before I begin - does the Win'2K CD suffice for the Libretto 110, or do I need to download Libretto-specific Win'2K stuff from Toshiba? Q3 - formatting I have the OE Libretto FDD and a Win'98 'recovery' boot diskette with COMMAND.COM, FDISK.EXE, etc on it - is that suitable for formatting the first 8.~ GB of the new HDD? It's got to be four or five years since I last did this - I vaguely recall FORMAT C: /S (and FORMAT C: /U /S??? - but I can't remember what U does?) - is that right? And then FDISK? It's all a blur... ;-) I've no previous Win'2K experience, and the file system issues are something of a grey area to me right now. Anything I need to watch out for, especially in respect of wanting this to become a Win'2K boot drive? Q4 - IDE adapter I've bought an adapter to plug the new HDD into a desktop. The drive has a long block of pins, plus four more pins offset at one end. The adapter matches up to the pins on the long block; the other four pins are for power, right? I recall it being mentioned at some point in the past that care was needed to make sure the laptop HDD - adapter - IDE cable connection is made correctly (not inverted?); indeed, the adapter I have will fit the new drive either way up - can someone jog my memory on the method for getting this right? Everything on the adapter is numbered, but not the pins on the HDD (plus of course I won't get to see the internals of the Internet Cafe machine prior to the moment of truth). Q5 - Win'2K I've seen it suggested that only the contents of the i386 directory need copying across? I've made a note to ensure I've got show all files enabled... And to launch the Win'2K installation, I just run winnt.exe...? Win'2K service packs - as per the BIOS question, I appreciate this info will be available elsewhere if I go search for it - but if anyone already has the necessary at their fingertips and can tell me what the score is, I'd really appreciate it - cheers!

If you look at the power supply that comes with the Libretto you see a surprisingly precise 15.000v coming out. Even 16v makes the orange light flash. It is finicky about overvoltage. So then surely running it directly from car lighter plug isnt going to cause it too many problems if it is looking out for the correct voltage?

Re: Libretto L1?
Date: Thu, 17 May 2001 20:50:06 +0900 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Libretto L1? I think one of the reasons there is not much discussion about the L1 on this list is that it would be hard to truly classify the L1 as a Libretto, size-wise. Yes, NoPictureBook may be a better name than Libretto. I think the use of the name Libretto sends a signal that Toshiba will not release a smaller Libretto for a while. I also like to have a computer as small as possible. On the other hand I find it difficult to ask for a smaller display with the same price. The display accounts for the large part of the price. When the first Libretto came out TFT was much more expensive. It appears that Libretto is growing as the TFT price drops. I like the size of the L1 display and keyboard. What bothers me is the unused real estate under both of them. PictureBook has less of the unused real estate, even with the camera on top of the screen. I also like that on the PictureBook mouse buttons are usable when the lid is closed. Minor details. I wish that the long life battery was more like in the Portege models, a thin block under the bottom. And a multi purpose drive bay built into either the long life battery block, or into a separate port replicator block. It's more like a regular notebook. You view this as a negative. More people may view this as a positive. The L1 size may prove to be more popular with a wider audience, because it is a smaller version of a regular notebook, with fewer restriction on use. This is about the smallest size for the vertical resolution of 600 pixels. The display on VAIO GT1 is a bit too small for the resolution it supports. I works OK for photos but the text is hard to read. Today Toshiba can probably make a machine equivalent to the original Libretto with the size of the larger Palm organizers. I wish they would. I would like to run Linux or Windows 95/98 on the Sony CLIE 700/710 look alike, with a flip cover over the display and an optional USB keyboard. Why do they not do it? How much should they sell it for? CLIE is about $500, I think. How many people would buy? /ken Original Message Subject: Libretto L1?

Thats what I thought at the time, but they say Li-Ion on the box, and the battery, and have the same part number as Sony spec for their minidisc player. They were clearing out old stock from the shop, so I guess they might have been on the shelf for a while. Do Li-Ion's hae a long shelf life? I thought the lib packs had 6 cells in them, two (strings of 3) in parallel. Maybe the standard is 1 string and the hi-capacity is 2 strings for the extra capacity. Yeah, from the size of the standard pack, it looks like they thought they might get two rows inside it, but when they got the actual batteries delivered, they wouldnt fit so they made two types? Well, it looks that way when you open it... =O) The mah rating is the measure of capacity but some battery chemistries don't allow a large load (Lib vs. Minidisc) and the life was greatly reduced. If the cells you tried were 1200mah then they should have lasted 60 to 90 minutes (assumption from list). Something was wrong, not charged, batts bad and wouldn't charge == cheap price, not 1200mah - only 2-300mah. Thanks again for the info. If I gae them a little charge (they wouldnt charge for long) they the machine would boot up. It did seem that is the current drain on them was over 1A (at boot up) then they would die, but worked OK during normal use. When I get around to it, Im going to charge them up in the minidisc player and see how they go before trying a second time.

I'm going to find a cheaper pack with enough capacity to replace the cells in a standard pack (new) that I have. http://www.alpinesports.org/~libretto/ I tried this with Minidisc batteries, cost me £5 ($8) for the three needed. The hard part is finding cheap cells but are available in packs for obsolete no-demand laptops. I'll post my results after testing. The ratings for the batteries would match up OK, but it didnt work for very long. I'd love to know why as I was always under the impression that the mAh rating was the deciding factor, and if this matches the original Libretto battery, then it should work.

As a side, does anyone know WHY Toshiba went to the new 'proprietary' connector? It sure is a REAL pain. The commonly available 'barrel' connector on the 50/70 made it a lot easier to get generic power supplies or hook up and external battery to them. I rang Toshiba support in the UK, and got hold of a connector which is used with the Targus Toshiba car power convertor. Didnt cost me a penny. They dont include them in the pack, but make you ring Toshiba support to get one instead. 2 days later, a huge jiffy bag appeared in the post with a tiny connector inside. Those little motherboard jumpers fit quite nicely inside of it.

100 Battery Cells - Can they be replaced ?
Date: Wed, 28 Feb 2001 09:27:18 + From: "a libretto" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: 100 Battery Cells - Can they be replaced ? My second battery for my 100 has just died. This is over the space of 3-4 months. Replacement battery was second hand so had been previously charged. 2 questions on this 1. Could I been doing anything wrong in terms of charging - leaving it plugged in over night or whatever for this to be happening ? or is it simply that I have reached the maximum number of recharges which I understand is 500 ? 2. I have taken the battery apart and there are 3 cells manufacured by Panasonic each giving off approx. 3.7v, in total 10.8v. Does anyone have any experiene in replacing these cells ? Do you have to use Lithium Ion ? Pardon my complete ignorance of things electrical but would I destroy the Libretto if I replace the cells with ones which give 12v output - 3.7v appear to be difficult to obtain ? What if I were to get a combination which gives less than 10.8v e.g. 9v - will the machine work ?

Re: other OS's
Date: Wed, 18 Oct 2000 05:04:22 GMT From: "Fubar Libretto" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: other OS's I don't see how they can run 'too fast' as long as the drive behaves according to the EIDE interface specs, which it should or else! eg. if the Libretto runs at a 16MB/sec. EIDE interface speed, then the HD will recognize that it can't go the UDMA 33/66/100 modes, and should simply run itself at the slower interface speed w/o any problems. If, however, for some reason those new HDs can't run at the slower interface speed (ie. they took out backwards EIDE compatibility), then I'd hide under a rock and buy an IBM instead. The IBM is actually 10 SPD cheaper here in Singapore (IBM: 550 SPD, Toshiba: 560 SPD) so that's the one I was going to get as it has a bigger buffer than the Toshiba and everything else seems to be the same. However, I'm looking at... http://www.storage.ibm.com/hardsoft/diskdrdl/travel/tr20gn.htm ...and UDMA is mentioned a lot whereas EIDE is not mentioned once, and "Interface transfer rate (MB/sec)" is quoted as:- - 66.6 Ultra-DMA mode 4 - 16.6 PIO mode Does that mean it's not Libretto compatible?

Re: 100CT problems, lots of!
Date: Mon, 2 Oct 2000 23:36:44 +0100 From: "Libretto List" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: 100CT problems, lots of! Do check whether your infrared port is activated or not. If it is ... then that's the reason. I always disabled mine by default and enabled it only when I want to use it with my 7110. Well, the report that hibernation would not work in 98 seems to be superceded when you install the BIOS update. I updated to 8 and installed Win98SE and it works fine, even with the Infrared working, which does quite well under 98 with the 780fir driver. Ahh yes! I forgot to mention that I did flash my BIOS to ver. 8 too. But I still disabled the IrDA port to be on the safe side. Well, I have the latest BIOS, tried running Win98 (not SE) and I got exactly the problems that Toshiba mentioned. I may well try again if (when) I get a bigger hard drive for it.

I dont know as I didnt get one =O( No, mini port does not contain any circuitary. It's simply wires for those ports. Does anyone have a wiring diagram for the docking connector on the 100? and a source for a socket to fit it? Since I used a USB card, I never use my mini port anymore (unless you need to connect to external monitor). Dont fancy selling it do you? =O) And I don't think I ever need an enhanced docking station because all it addes is two USB ports which I already have for cheaper, I like the addition of the extra PCMCIA slots on the 100 dock. nice and handy. aside from all the problems reported by the users of enhanced docking station. what kind of things?

Re: Boot+run Win2K from PC-card drive?
Date: Mon, 25 Sep 2000 04:24:18 GMT From: "Fubar Libretto" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Boot+run Win2K from PC-card drive? Suppose I get a friend in the west to procure a Toshiba MK2001MPL 2Gb PC-card drive, copy the contents of a Win2K CD onto it, and ship it to me - could I boot from my recovery diskette, do a Win2K installation from the files on the PC-card drive, and thereafter persuade the Libretto to boot from the PC-card drive Very unlikely. The Libretto expects a floppy on the PC card. How could you tell it otherwise? Thanks, Pres; that makes sense... Could I boot from the recovery diskette, do the Win2K install (to the PC-card, from the files on the PC-card), and thereafter boot from a floppy and *then* run Win2K from the PC-card drive? I presume I'd need to create a floppy which will allow the Libretto to boot and see the PC-card drive from an A: prompt? OTOH why do you want a Libretto with a non-functioning drive? It's a temporary fix - I figure I can use the PC-card as my portable data back-up device in the future. Have your friend get a replacement drive, f-disk it in a Libretto to get the hibernation partition, format and sys: it to make it bootable, and copy the contents of the WIN2k into c:\disks\win2k Alternatively if you can't get a Libretto to f-disk it in, reserve at the end enough for hibernation. David Chein can advise on this. I can organise the latter, but am reluctant as it's still under warranty and I'll invalidate the warranty when I break the seals, which will be bad news if it turns out that the problem is not with the HD, but with the controller (I'm presuming the controller is on the motherboard?) If the drive works in the Libretto you can install the drive and the OS. If I do attempt this, I guess the new 20Gb IBM drive is the one to go for - has anyone reading this actually done this upgrade on a 110? How do I physically get to the HD? Is is via the keyboard (ie from the top), or by removing the bottom half of the case (ie from underneath)? If the HDD controller is fried, sell it for the value of the display. Hoping I can avoid that one way or another - it's only a few months old! Problem is, I bought it in Hong Kong and it looks like I'd have to return there to get it sorted. Can anyone think of any way of determining where the problem is - the drive, or the controller - without breaking the seals? _ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.

Sorry for the delay on the latest update. As far as I know the searchable archive is not longer around. If anyone knows where it has gone let me know and I will once again add it to he footer. Actually, it's a bigger problem than that. Smashing =O) The ol' searchable archives apparently run off some Unix box that's still/was linked from my web site (below) is now inactive/dead/gone. Apparently, G.Taylor (?) who had maintained it isn't anymore. I tried the site, but he seems to have gone and bought a Viao, well, I was gonna do that, but its not as cute as my Lib. Now, in order to make the archives searchable once more, someone has to host the archives, How much space are we talking about here? Maybe a free web site has CGI search capabilities, but I haven't had a chance yet to look for one that does that'll handle the size of the archives, and allow some custom scripting to archive new ones. I should be able to sort something temporary, and hopefully a more full time solution in the near future. If anyone happens to be friendlier with an ISP, please step in at any time.. =O) The ol' archives simply archived each email posting as a unique number counting up from 1 as individual 'unix mail' files, so luckily, it's quite simply to throw back onto any unix/linux box. Something on the order of over 20K messages... OK, so if we say this message is 8Kb, then we are talking about around 160Mb. Ouch! years onto CD so everyone can buy a copy for reference. This CD currently includes lots of stuff that is gone from the web, from Japanese magazines unavailable elsewhere, all the downloads, drivers, etc. The one thing I would love to be able to do is read Japanese, there seems to be loads of info on some of the Japanese sites, but Ive no idea if it is useful or not?!? Again, sadly, my account doesn't come with 650MB of storage space ;) so there won't be an online version of the entire CD when it's finished. It's too bad I'm in no-man's-land over here -- the local companies say I'm out of DSL and Cable Modem reach -- otherwise, I'd just setup my own local server at home. This is what Im planning for the near future, assuming I can get the boss to fund it =O) so I should be able to spare a gog or two on it for my own purposes.

I believe it is called tosir95.exe but if you really really need to know I can look it up tonight. Id love it if youd be able to find it and pass the link on to me, I looked at tosh's site and couldnt find it in the search at all. OK. It is IRPCI95.exe for the PCI-based L100 series for Win95 Here is the readme: SNIPPED So you would have to install that first, and then install the MSIR2.0 software, or am I getting confused =O) Did you just grab that from Toshiba's site then, cos I still cant find the damn thing! =O) I have even played an MPEG video ( poorly ) over an infrared connection. I take it that playback of a DivX movie is out of the question on a 166MHz processor? What if I clocked it to 266MHz? Has anyone tried one of the Margi MPEG2 DVD decoder cards on a lib? I have used the Margi DVD card with a CNF Card-port DVD player successfully on a stock L100. Not perfect but usually OK. Some skips in the audio. Worth noting. I remember reading somewhere about a Sony CD-ROm and SCSI PCMCIA card which was a great size for the lib, and of course it doubled up as a portable CD player. Does anyone know of anything like this for DVD drives? I know that you can get small ones, but all the ones that I have seen are a single device on the interface. It would be great to be able to hook up a Zip drive to it as well when Im at home. On another note, I tried to play back a DivX movie on my lib last night. Had to put the MP3 audio quality down to minimum, and the movie did skip a lot, but I think that if I clock it to 266MHz it might be able to cope without the skipping. So... Has anyone clocked their 100CT this high, and what is their experiences of using it at this speed? Is there time limit before it will crash / lock up / whateveer due to the heat, or can you get away with it? I tend to use it on the enhanced dock a lot, and the 3COM Megahertz modem card come heat up a log cabin in the rocky's! =O) Well, the problem is it is sharing COM1. As the instructions state you select an unused port like COM3 to look for the infrared device, then MSIR20 attaches to that COM3 and makes a COM4 available to the applications. Right oh. Ive changed the COM port on the dock to be assigned as COM2 so I hopefully wont have any problems when I try to install the Infra Red AGAIN! =O) Just need to get the Toshiba file now.
