Maybe that's what's up with mine, since I am pretty sure it's lost the
CMOS settings. I took the cover off today, astonishingly clean and new
inside, but couldn't find the battery. The HD is 100 megs, which is
pretty unusual from what I've seen.
Couple more questions: There is the PS which takes a regular power
cable and pops out with the push of a button. There is another outlet,
much like a transformer outlet, which came with a cord. Was this for
the external floppy?
As far as the PS is concerned, I'm wondering if it got fried somehow
with being plugged into the outlet but not in the laptop. Strange
setup, really. You could hold the PS in your hand, plug it into the
wall and then into the laptop. Can't believe that in the field it
would be that easy to fry it, though.
All in all it's a damn fine laptop, and this one looks as if it has
never been used. It is spotless! Thanks for the info, crew. If anyone
can add anything, feel free.
