Hi:
I just picked up an older style laptop that I need some hlp on. It is
a Toshiba T2200SX laptop. It is a 386 I believe, 3.5" floppy drive,
80 something meg hard drive, black and white LCD VGA display running
Windows 3.1. Here's what I am looking for, or at least some advice on
where to direct this help request to.
1) I need a battery for this unit. I have the power supply, but the
battery with it won't charge. The battery I have is made by Toshiba
and is model # PA2404U. Please let me know if you have one of these
or know where I could find one!
Cord,
Your chances of finding another battery are slim. Even if you find one
it will be old and probably won't last long. My suggestion is to take it
to one of the battery places that rebuild batteries and have them replace
the cells in your old battery. There is a place in Sanford, Florida that I
have used a lot and that I'm very happy with. Their name is TNR, I don't
have their phone number handy but you can get it from directory info. They
use good quality batteries so their batteries will usually last a lot
longer than the original ones since the OEMs usually use the cheapest junk
they can find.
