Howdy All, I just joined the list and am the owner of a small (though my wife would dispute that) collection of computers. I collect both PC's and Macintoshes, and thoroughly enjoy all. One thing I seem to be getting a lot of lately are laptops. At last count, I have 9 of them, ranging from my beloved (and frequently used) Tandy Model 102 to my Toshiba Satellite 133. One of my latest acquisitions, though, I would like to get running urgently. My computers actually have to work, and do so all of the time! I acquired an NEC Multispeed HD. The main battery in it is gone (like to rebuild one, obviously), but the machine does run (incidently, the option for removing the LCD screen? That's great!). The problem is, I get a 1701 error on HD startup, and the ROM based programs can't be found. I think I may need to run a setup program, but it can't be accessed either. Does anyone out there know what might be the problem? Or, more to the point, does anyone have the files needed to get this gem running? Thanks, Robert PS -I also acquired, in the same batch, a Toshiba T1200XE with a dead backlight. Any idea where I might be able to find parts? RL
