Newsgroups: comp.sys.zenith,comp.sys.zenith.z100 Subject: HELP with old ZWL-183-93 laptop Organization: Eastman Kodak I have a few questions regarding an older zenith laptop (ZWL-183-93). My 3.5" hard-drive is dead. does anyone know where I can get another one (for free)? If I can't get another HD, I do have a second 3.5" floppy drive. (2 floppy drives are better than one floppy and one dead HD) I have opened the laptop up, I can see where the floppy drive is plugged in, but it dosent look like there is a second cable connection (plug) to install a second floppy instead of the hard disk. Is it possible to install a second floppy instead of hard drive in the ZWL-183-93? When I turn the ZWL-183-93 on the low battery light comes on and it `beeps` periodically. This happens even when the AC adapter is plugged in. I even let the AC adapter juice the battery pack over night. In the morning the same thing happens even though the system can run off the battery for quite some time. Is something broken? -Bob Fagioli Please respond with Email to rcf@bisco.kodak.com or fagioli@bisco.kodak.com if that bounces back. Thank you in advance.
