Re: [ql-users] QPC Keyboard
I presume there are only 2 ways of changing the kbd; either I set in Configuration QPC2 page, the "CODE de Pays" as 1 or 33 or 44 etc. and I set QBD_TABLE in my boot as the same chosen number. I do not know of any other way of affecting the keyboard. My keyboard is in English, i.e.the Keys are in English. I have tried 1 and 33 and 44 even 49 as mentioned above and do not get success.

[ql-users] QPC Keyboard
Hi Experts When I use QPC2v312 via XP my keyboard is jumbled. e.g.x>y and z>x and much more, so using BASIC etc. is a bore. My setup is as follows: All is in French (XP etc.) The Language and Keyboard in XP is Français(Suisse). The actual KB is Dell with some accent keys at right of P and L. The words on the KB are in English. I have tried changing the kb language in XP to Anglais(Etats-Unis), that is English(USA), and also English(UK), then running QPC but the kb result is still jumbled. This problem has always existed with older QPCs and probable with Windows 98. Is there a way of modifying the keyboard within QPC so kb works properly? In otherwords is there a kb driver for QPC which would help. If not, why not (hee hee!) Cheers, Ian Pizer, 49 ch.

[ql-users] Idea
Hi I like to use my old PC which has only 3Gb hard disk and 333Mhz. But the lack of HD memory often gives limits. I decided to fit an external HD (40Gb) via USB. Now most programs reside in the new HD and run from it and I have oudles of spare space for years. It runs at nearly the same rate as a modern laptop. External HDs get cheaper and are quite small. Mine is a LACIE. Cheers, Ian Pizer, 49 ch. Machery, 1292 Chambesy, Switzerland e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tel. 41227581410 ___ QL-Users Mailing List
[ql-users] Printers
Hi I think about getting a new printer. My EPSON Color 880 has done great service and used the famous ESC/P2 for QDOS, but seems to be worn out as it makes unclear copies with undesired background lines despite automatic cleaning etc. Finding a suitable printer to satisfy both QL(QPC) and PC is both a bother and restrictive so I wondered if text from, say, Text87 (probably QUILL also) can be printed via PC. So I did as follows - from Text87 do F3, Export to a win1 file. Go to QD and load the exported file. Make the text into a BLOCK and send the block to SCRAP. Now go to PC and pick up the text by PASTEING to a text program from which you can print to non QL prnter. Sounds a bit complex but Yes it works. Now I can go to a local shop and choose from dozens of possible printers. That will take ages. Any suggestions about which colour printer to choose? Regards, Ian Pizer, 49 ch.

Thanks for the advice. After much searching Roxio tells me that all necessary drivers are already in XP but my Easy CD Creator must be updated so it can handle the CD drives. Well I am half way there, Yamaha now works. The yellow marks on the drive in Property System/Material have now disappeared. But Toshiba is reluctant. I can live with only one CD drive.

Hi Users I try to use my old Desktop PC which had W98 but now has XP. It runs pretty nicely for QPC and it recognises that I have 2 CD Drives: Yamaha CRW2100E and Toshiba CD-ROM XM-6102B but indicates there are no drivers. I do not have any CDs containing drivers and cannot find on internet suitable drivers. Should I just assume that these drivers are not recouperable? Regards, Ian Pizer, 49 ch.
