Hi. In article <8cdc9i$rcr$1@news101.telia.com> , "Poul Voss-Knude" <poul.v-k@teliamail.dk> writes >My Dynabook is a J-3100sx041p Of course this is not T-Series. So you cannot use tsetup. Unfortunately J3100SX sries BIOS has hard coded Hard disk related data. This means you have to use special hard disk for these PC. This BIOS code limits ths size of Hard disk up to 60MB. And it check special patterns written in the hard disk. In some reasons, if you lose the patterns, BIOS report NO-Hard disk error. I'm pretty sure the note pc is a piece of junk. I strongly recomend to give up any efforts on it. This is good for a floppy ( 2.1 MSDOS ), you are luckey. Otherwise it becomes a typing tutour nothing more. --- Shinji KONO @ Information Engineering, University of the Ryukyus $B2OLn??<#(B @ $BN05eBg3X9)3XIt>pJs9)3X2J(B
