See http://www.xs4all.nl/~avics/Lib96MB.html how it can be done with a module from http://www.memoryx.net/ktt3010321.html You need some soldering skills and a little bit of case modding. Avi.

[LIB] OT: Help with disk setup on a Toshiba laptop
Date: Fri, 19 Jan 2007 14:45:37 - From: Chris Hogan [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: OT: Help with disk setup on a Toshiba laptop Hi all, This isn't a libretto question but I know the knowledge on this list about hard disks and operating systems is second to none so I'd be grateful if anyone could help on this. I have an old Toshiba T2150 (Pentium I think, 20MB Ram, 800Mb HD) which I've been using to play with a variety of different operating systems over the years, various flavours of Linux and BSD mostly. But I now want to get rid of it through my local freecycle group so I thought I'd put Win95 back on it, I don't like the idea of putting things on freecycle that are unusable. But although I can fdisk and format the hard drive and get it running under DOS, Win95 setup fails with the following message: Setup found a compressed volume or disk-cache utility on your computer. Quit setup and blah... If I force it to go further, it unpacks the initial setup files then fails with error SU-0013 which is basically saying that it can't find an MS-Dos partition to use. I have tried using various different combinations of DOS to fdisk and format the HD, from Dos 5.0 to Win98SE, including a Win95 boot floppy, all to no avail. I've also tried fdisk /MBR with each version, no change. I have booted it with the most basic dos configuration, i.e. no config.sys or autoexec.bat at all and setup files on the hard disk so there's no CD drivers in memory (actually the CD drive's broken now anyway ) I've tried the boot disks on the Toshiba site (I never had the original disks) and although they boot up, they only have basic Dos with CD drivers and tools to restore from CD (which I don't have and the drive is now broken... etc etc). There's no fdisk/format on them and if I boot from them and then use the fdisk/format programs from another Dos version then they won't run (because they say 'incorrect Dos version'). I have also used a disk utility to zero the contents of the hard drive, then fdisk/format, but again, no change. So I am forced to conclude that the problem isn't to do with anything that's being loaded into memory at startup, and isn't anything wrong with the one primary DOS partition I'm creating (FAT32, btw). That leaves either a hardware fault (unlikely, I feel) or something in the boot sector (or other area on the disk) that Windows 95 setup doesn't understand, and it's making it think the hard disk isn't partitioned correctly. Not surprising since it's had all sorts of boot loaders and enablers on it over the years. I have two questions: 1: Would the disk zeroing program (Maxtor Maxblast, if anyone's interested) include the boot sector, or in it's zeroing? 2: What the *@!%£* can I try next!! I have to admit that although I muck around with PC's a lot, the boot sector is one area where my knowledge is limited. Any thoughts gratefully welcomed. Chris

That leaves either a hardware fault (unlikely, I feel) or something in the boot sector (or other area on the disk) that Windows 95 setup doesn't understand, and it's making it think the hard disk isn't partitioned correctly. Not surprising since it's had all sorts of boot loaders and enablers on it over the years. I have two questions: 1: Would the disk zeroing program (Maxtor Maxblast, if anyone's interested) include the boot sector, or in it's zeroing? 2: What the *@!%£* can I try next!! I have to admit that although I muck around with PC's a lot, the boot sector is one area where my knowledge is limited. Any thoughts gratefully welcomed. Chris

I selected typical install not laptop/portable, I wanted a bunch of stuff that wasn't in laptop default components. When I was installing it looked like the laptop/portable option was just to save disk space not CPU memory? I'll have a play with it later. Think I saw some XP style task / memory manager (some Russian app?) online somewhere? might show what processes are using the memory up. You didn't mention anything about sound in DOS for Doom. Did that in fact work for you? Yes doom 2 worked fine without any sound driver, although I've had the sound die a couple of times mid game. I just copied the folder straight from backup of an old machine. Maybe it was because the sound config was already setup for my old machine and worked the same? Or doom 2 uses updated sound component? You're looking at those settings in the Toshiba 'Power Saving Properties'... right? Yes Is that with no apps running? I'm not quite sure what you've got System Monitor set to, but with 'Add Item Kernal Processor Usage (%)' set on my 70, and nothing running. I'm getting a green line that is maxed at 100%. It seems to stay there when I run apps too. I don't see a setting in SM specifically for idle CPU usage. Yes 'Add Item Kernal Processor Usage (%)', Just checked again still only 10% when idle (just a bumpy red line along the bottom on mine). 'Memory Manager-Allocated Memory' is 36.6MB, 'Swapfile in use' is 0 MB and 'unused physical memory' is 2.6MB ish. Strange that yours reads 100%, maybe some background app eating up spare CPU cycles. With nothing running, SM shows about 5Mb unused physical memory on my 70. I'll admit, I'm not sure what that represents. When I open Eudora, that drops to near zero. Starting Winamp, it stays at zero. But closing Winamp causes it to pop up to 3.7Mb. Then closing Eudora pushes it up to 8.8Mb. When computer runs out of physical memory it starts using the 'swapfile' (virtual memory on the hard drive) which is much slower. Looks like I may have some extra windows components eating up some memory, don't think they all show in crappy 98 task manager. How may colours do you run windows in, I'm currently using 16 bit in windows and 222K in bios.

Bizarre and arcane knowledge of DOS startup files and memory management. 4. DOS pcmcia socket services and knowledge of their use. Its too long-winded to go into here, however I will happily email my floppy disk contents, all you'd need to do then is replace my netcard drivers (Xircom 10M CE II PS) with yours, and tweak the config files. To my surprise, the disk I made for my old ThinkPad worked straight away in my Libretto (which I have back, hurrah, long story for another time perhaps), and a colleague's Portege, as long as the card was in the correct slot.
