I was about to post a question about it when I found your note. I've checked the service manual, aksed Iris, and search the Lib list archives, but can't find an answer. My 100 won't power on from the battery which sees to be dead, thought it had been powering the system fine the other day. It does boot with the AC adapter connected. But for some reason the LED for the battery suddenly started blinking twice quickly, staying on for a few seconds, then blinking twice again, and continuing that way. This pattern persists wither or not the system is booted. Unless there's a simple solution, I'm afraid either either the battery or charging circuit has gone bad. I'm wondering if this might be connected to having O/Ced the system to 266, and all of the WinXP crashes the system has been subjected to. Any thoughts on this would be much appreciated. Matt From: Raymond [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi all! Looks like my trusty L100 has decided that it doesn't want to play nice anymore :-( I plug the power supply and battery in and, if the laptop is turned on, the charging light comes on and the power icon shows charging but the battery never makes it beyond about 58%. Unplug external power and the battery starts discharging. I get about 1h20m or so out of it which is about right for a half charge given the age of the battery. However, things get weirder when the laptop is turned off. With the laptop plugged in, initially the power light goes green and the battery light goes orange (as normal). However, after a while the battery light turns off altogether (it SHOULD go green when the battery is charged) ... If I take the battery pack out and plug it back in again, the orange charge light comes back on for a while before going out altogether again. All this started quite suddenly ... it was all working OK then I ran the battery all the way down on a flight from Rome to Tokyo (on an Alitalia 767 of all things ... don't get me started ...). These problems started the next time I plugged it in (actually thats not quite true, the first time I plugged it in, instead of the battery light coming on, the power light flashed orange indicating a power problem) ... Anyone else seen such symptoms or have any ideas? *sigh* I wish I found out this thing was having problems before I left Tokyo (the next time I plugged it in after the flight was in Australia) ... I could have gotten a nice replacement when I went to Akihabara! - Raymond P.S. Yes, I'm back!

I know XP saves to a file on the root of C when it hibernates, seen that happen before.

You definately do not need to use the DC adapter for low-power USB 1.1 devices. I have no idea what speed I get as I do not actually own any USB2 peripherals. A while back I did a bit of research on various kinds of transfer rates, and came up with this list of theoretical rates depending on a systems components: * Ultra DMA ATA/33 hard disk drive 264Mbps (33MB/s) * Ultra DMA ATA/66 hard disk drive 528Mbps (66MB/s) * Ultra DMA ATA/100 hard disk drive 800Mbps (100MB/s) * USB 1.1, supporting 127 devices up to 12 Mbps (1.5MB/s) * USB 2.0, supporting 127 devices up to 480Mbps (60MB/s) * Firewire IEEE-1394, supporting 63 devices up to 400Mbps (50MB/s) So if anyone knows the limitations of bus speeds for the different Libs, maybe we can determine if, say a Lib o/c to 266MHz would be able to perform transfers faster with a USB 2.0 interface over USB 1.1. I would guess the Libs use ATA/33 HDDs, but Ultra DMA? I don't know enough about HDD specs.

OK this has minimal libretto content but I'm getting desperate and you lot seem pretty smart ... so here goes. I've been caught not once, not twice but 4 times by the infamous IBM DeskStar 75GXP bug. I had 2 30 gig drives die on me, sent them away, almost 3 months later I got 2 45 gig 75GXP drives back from IBM which have now, barely 3 months on, died of the same cause (indicated 3 or 4 loud rasping sounds followed by silence then a few more times then the computer locking solid when accessing certain parts of the hard drive). No kidding. That's why there is a class action law suit against IBM on 75GXP. And also why IBM now decided to get out of hard disk business. Until now, I've had almost perfect faith in IBM hard drives but this has shaken my faith to its foundations. What are you people's recommendations regarding IDE drives from other manufacturers that are dependable and relatively quick, based on your experiences? I'm looking for recommendations for 7200RPM ATA100 or better hard drives in the 40-60GB range. I'd also be interested in experiences with companies that give pretty good warranty service (ie. it doesn't take them 3 months to replace a pair of hard drives!). I still have two IBM disks on my two desktops. One is the first generation 7200 rpm DeskStar 10GB. Still running strong after about 4 years and a new 60GXP. Some say 60GXP does not share the problem with 75GXP. Some say otherwise. Keep my fingers crossed on this one. I've a Maxtor 20GB 7200 rpm disk died couple months ago after installed it for only 2 years. Its warranty service is pretty good. I just went to Maxtor's web site, put in the serial no and fill out a form and get a replacement in weeks. So, it leaves only two brands, Seagate and Western Digital which I haven't used them for years. ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ - Archives ---TO UNSUBSCRIBE--- Reply to any of the list messages.

Looks like I am safe, but to be sure I think, I will have to fill up both partitions, hibernate, and run scandisk. I still have doubts about the crash of the old L100. I had the largest possible first partition with Win98 and second partition with XP. After hibernation XP was dead. But shouldn't the hibernation data be written in the end of the first partition, not in the beginning of the second one? Or may be my first partition was a little smaller and second one started a little earlier? Sounds like you misunderstand how Lib BIOS hibernation works. It writes data to a specific location (specifically a specific cylinder number) in the disk no matter how the disk is partitioned. When create a partition that includes that location, the BIOS hibernation will overwrite that partition data. ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ - Archives ---TO UNSUBSCRIBE--- Reply to any of the list messages.

I found that my unit (with the original 4.3G HD and 64mb memory) was up and running in 1:25 seconds and shut down in 15 seconds! I have only had the L110 for a few weeks and am familiar with the Win2K OS from using it on my desktop but I don't see a lot of difference in its speed and facility on the Libretto. Someone mentioned some sites where one can find info about trimming the Win2K OS (and I would like to know more about this) but I can't imagine that it would work that much more efficiently in doing so? Why would 64mb's of memory work with Win2K more effectively in a L110 than a L100 - the smaller HD shouldn't have much of an influence at least for booting up - or does it? Shutdown time heavily depends on what kind of software or driver installed. And also L110 is running at 233MHz while a stock L100 is running at 166MHz. ** 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.

You end up with dozens of little icons in the system tray on the right end of the status bar that suck the life out of the system resources. Nope. The thing I mentioned are services that usually does not display anything and you need to use Service Control Panel to disable them. Also, there must be a place in W2000 where the system resources are displayed immediately following a boot to the desktop. IN W98, you can right click My Computer, and go to the Performance tab. Much easier than Win98. Just right click on task bar bring up the Task Manager. It shows all the information there. 100 times more useful than anyhting you can find in Win98. Win98 also suffers from the 64 KB limit on system GDI resource and USER resource (64KB for GDI and 64KB for USER in Win98. Win95 only have 64KB total for both USER and GDI). A buggy software can easily cause these resource to leak and when all the 64KB are used up, system crashed without warning. WinNT/2000 does not have these limitations. As a result, there is no way in NT/2000 to check how much GDI and USER resource is used or how much is free. ** 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.

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. 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.

Machine, doesn't matter. Battery, continous charging of systems is not recommended. Better to let it sit hibernated to disk, suspended to RAM (will use energy) or simply off overnight unless you need a full charge at the beginning of the day. The Libretto batteries and charging system isn't as smart as the latest designs, unfortunatly. Also, continously charging and dischargin within a narrow range will reduce battery lifepsans vs. full discharges and recharges. I beg the differ. Libretto batteries are the same type of battery used in most new laptops. It's Li-ion cell. One thing that separates Li-ion battery with other rechargeable battery is that Li-ion battery does not suffer either over-charge (built-in circuit to prevent that) or memory effect.

Leave it on AC so the Li-ion battery get fully charged all the time. If you don't, the battery will lose its charge in a week. A full recharge eats one of its limited recharge cycles (500 to 1000). (2) There are 2-3 pinkish-colored vertical pixel columns on the left edge of the screen. Is this a permanent fault of the screen (the machine is 4 years old), or something can be done with it? I've one vertical columns changing color if I press on it. The LCD connector at the edge might have worn out. I don't think it worth the risk to open up the LCD screen to fix it. (3) The machine _sometimes_ locks up when coming back from hibernation. The screen remains black with the cursor blinking in the left upper quarter of the screen. The only way to come out of this is to push the reset button. This only happens sometimes, with no obvious reason. Is there any experience with this? (I realize from recent posts that suspend/hibernate is a less-than-obvious feature of the Librettos.) This happens to me most of the time when restore from hibernation in Win98. I since moved to Win2k and use standby all the time. And it never fails on me. (4) My machine has BIOS 7.30, and I downloaded the 8.10 version. Is it worthwhile to replace it? Anything particular to watch out when doing a BIOS update? Can I save/restore the previous one in case something fails? Can it be done safely on a fully installed machine, or better on a virgin one? You will need a 720k floppy disk and boot from floppy to do the BIOS upgrade. You can't upgrade from hard disk. And if you're not intended to install Win2000, you don't really need the new BIOS. Everytime you upgrade any BIOS, you run the risk of failure and trash the whole computer useless. Of course the risk is very small but it is still possible. It doesn't matter it's a new or fully loaded one. (5) Is there an Email address where Toshiba service engineers would answer tech questions? (Guarantee is over.)

I'm having a few headaches regarding hot docking of the L100 to and from the advanced port replicator. I found that I MUST warm or cold dock the libby but I MUST hot or cold undock it. To dock the L100 I need to either shut it down or suspend or hibernate first, then dock, then resume otherwise it doesn't detect the APR (but it squeals at me if I remove it). Power connects though so I'm sure its docked right as far as hardware goes. To undock, I need to either shut down or go startundock, let it do its job (which apparently also turns off the APR as the 'eject your computer now' screen just flashes up then goes away) then undock. Curiously, after this operation it recons it has 3 PCMCIA slots (normaly when docked it recons it has 4 and when powered up from undocked state it recons it has 2). If I suspend/hibernate before undocking, undock then resume, the computer never makes it out of suspend/hibernation and requires a hard reset. Is this consistent with anyone else's observations? Anyone managed to do a proper hot-dock or warm-undock operation with this laptop?

Yes, jpeg is an image compression method and .jpg is the extension commonly given to the jpeg compressed files. The decompress of the jpeg file only happens with the help of JPeg capable programs like browser and photo editing software. You do not execute the jpeg file because you can't. However, it is possible for someone to rename an executable file into something like vir.jpg or vir.bmp. And in normal cause, this will not cause any problem in Windows as Windows will check file extension and load the photo editing software to load the file and display some error message since it is not a jpeg file. However, in the native Windows API calls, you can let Windows execute any file regardless the file extension as long as the format of the file is that of the windows executable file (or called PE format). This can only be done through 3rd party software, however. Maybe your IRC software have this feature to execute those files if instructed. ** 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.

Where exactly do I set the partitions to leave room for hibernation? Use your lib to create the primary parition using DOS and FDISK. It will create a maximum partition around 8GB. Do not use Win2k to create the primary parition or partition it outside of Lib. Leave 100 to 200 MB after the primary partition and you can create the second parition on rest of the disk. I use Win2000's disk manager to create a partition of 200MB after the primary partition and leave it unformatted. Then I create another partition that takes the rest of the disk space and format it. Also, is there a way under Win2000 to merge the two resulting partitions into a single drive? Yes, you can use Win2000's disk manager to mount any volume(partition) into another volume's empty folder.

I'm trying to use this printer with my Libretto 1100, which only does USB, to take advantage of the Smart Card reader (and the fact that it's the 1100 that has all my photo software on it). I'll continue pursuing with Olympus, of course, but I suspect there are more experts out here. With the default settings for the printer driver and the USB-to-parallel cable driver, I get no indication that the printer is receiving any data from the computer. Next, I've tried modifying the driver settings for the cable to disable bidirectional communications, and to really really long transmission timeouts. After this change, I do get activity from the printer -- the printing light blinks really optimistically, and it sounds like the printing process starts (the paper starts its printing process, but no ink is deposited). Then after a couple of minutes I get an error indicating that the printer is out of paper. Fascinating, captain, since I've just reloaded all the paper. Now, I'm about at the point of running the printer to my L110 which has native parallel capabilities, and doing something annoying like using IrDA to transfer pictures between the machines -- but if anyone has any ideas about this, I'd be much obliged.

I used Drive Copy to copy the original Win98 'image' and then copied this to the new HDD (which was FDISKed and FORMATted on the Lib110CT) so the hibernation partition is the the correct place. Because I FDISKed on the 110 the HDD is only seen as 8.4GB. However, XP sees the rest.Although this is the case I don't know what to do with the rest of the unallocated space as the Lib BIOS will have put the hibernation partition at the end of the 8.4 (this does not show as any space on XP computer management window).

That is very true. Sometimes up to 10 times slower. That's why I never use any AV software. I simply use eudora, and don't open unexpected attachments. When you don't run the MS virus autoinstaller mail clients, life gets a lot simpler. According to today's roundup, I've got some 1700+ attached files probably half are viruses. One of these days, I'll get around to deleting them, but it's hardly worth the effort. It doesn't matter what email client you use. The only advantage you get from non-Outlook email client is that if you did get infected you won't help virus to spread to others provided you properly disabled the OL/OE to send emails. It always comes down to the user who clicks to open the attachment. So far, there aren't any email virus that will automatically infect you when you simply read the mail without open the attachment. Why people keep opening the attachment w/o caution is beyond me.

I was looking at some SmartMedia to PC card adapters but they cost an arm and a leg ... or are CF cards a lot closer to PCMICA (and hence their adapters would be a lot cheaper)? CD cards have the almost exact same pin layout as PCMCIA. The only difference is physical size. So a CF/PC card adapter contains nothing but wires that connect two connectors. SmartMedia and other flash memory cards do not have this interface logic built in. The adapter needs to have its own circuit to support the PCMCIA interface. That's why these adapters are much more expensive. I was just looking at getting an Olympus C-200 Zoom digital camera (I think its called the C-450 in the US) but the downside is that the only ways to get images out of it is either through USB or SmartMedia, neither of which is an easy proposition for the Libby. True unless you got a L100/110. For that matter, how much slower IS serial compared to USB as far as digital cameras go? Anyone got any figures for time taken? It's 115kbps vs 12mbps. It is VERY SLOW.

Very good driver support in general, and very few issues. Much improved reliability. Now for the down side - I have two problems remaining. First is that it won't automatically shut it self down. I upgraded BIOS to 8.1 and made sure that I had installed the Toshiba Power Extensions from the Toshiba site, but it still hangs at the screen saying It is now safe to turn off your computer. I know it's APM BIOS, but how do I make it shut off? You have to update the BIOS before install the Win2K so that it will install as ACPI computer rather than standard computer. There is a hack that you can go to device manager and click the item under Computer and update its driver to Advanced Configuration and Power Interface PC which will basically re-install your win2k to use ACPI. Second, is there a Win2K driver available for the PCMCIA floppy drive? If so, I couldn't find it on Toshiba's site or by letting Win2K detect it... not a big deal since nobody uses floppies these days, but just thought I would check... Libretto Win2K floppy driver is built in Win2k. It should auto detect it. Make sure you installed Win2K SP2. ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://libretto.basiclink.com/archive - Archives http://www.picante.com/~gtaylor/portable/faq.html - FAQ ---UNSUBSCRIBE--- mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=cmd:unsubscribe UNSUBSCRIBE DIGEST-- Use above but add DIGEST to the subject line... **

I bought a new standard 1200 mAH battery for the L100 last year to compliment the used enhanced battery I had. I am careful to cycle the batteries regularly to keep them from going weak. Well, A month ago I noticed the standard battery would not take a charge. Either the orange light would stay on forever or it would go green immediately ( done ). Either way the Libretto had no life. OK, maybe a bad battery. My old standard battery that came with my original Japanese L100 did that for me two years ago. Last week my trusty used enhanced battery did pretty much the same thing, except the orange light would wink out twice every few seconds. On-off-on-off-Onnn if the battery was plugged in while the A/C is also plugged in. My second battery recently did the same thing to me (standard battery bought two years ago). Does the group feel I have a bad charger in the computer or 2 battery failures? The life of your batteries has come to end. I bought a new enhanced battery two weeks ago for $130 and it works. I guess battery dies in one or two years (based on usuage) no matter how many batteries you have in hand to rotate. I do have an external charger I just got, as soon as I find it I will try that to charge it. No need to try. Just buy a new battery. Thanks Pres Waterman W2PW c/o Patchogue Motors, Inc.

Ramirez [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: BIOS version for Win 2000 This is a question for those who 110CT users who have upgraded to Win 2000... On the Toshiba website, there is a Flash BIOS upgrade version 8.0 which is said to support Win 2000, and on the download page for this item, under Applicable Models, both the 100CT and 110CT are listed. However, in the Readme.txt file which comes with this download, only the 100CT is referred to. So what's the story here...does the 110CT need this BIOS upgrade to run Win 2000 or not? Yes. Better yet, get the latest version of 8.10 listed on Toshiba's site. L100 and L110 are identical except for the CPU speed. ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://libretto.basiclink.com/archive - Archives http://www.picante.com/~gtaylor/portable/faq.html - FAQ ---UNSUBSCRIBE--- mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=cmd:unsubscribe UNSUBSCRIBE DIGEST-- Use above but add DIGEST to the subject line... **
