Date: Thu, 27 Oct 2005 23:57:44 +0300 From: John Niemi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: 100CT RAM swap, overheating, PS/2 port? Hi, I'm having small problems with my 100CT. Sometimes the Windows 98SE control panel shows the Libretto to have 32.0 Mb RAM, sometimes 64.0 Mb. I think the additional memory chip is loose, or at least that's what I'd like to check out first? Where is it located and what is the easiest way to get there? Also, conserning memory, I'd like to upgrade to 96 (or more!) Mb, can someone tell me where to get 64Mb (or larger!) chips that fit my Libretto? I'm having pretty sluggish performance in Win98SE after installing the latest version of Opera, F-secure and Microsoft anti-spyware beta. By the way, I have 98lite installed already. Anyway, I thought the extra memory might help here? Next question, the Libretto is getting pretty hot from the bottom casing. Has anyone ever measured the temperature ranges these things should usually work fine with... like put a thermometer in a PCMCIA slot and see how much the inside temps usually are? I have also a 700mhz IBM X21 laptop and the Libretto is HOT compared to the IBM. And I haven't yet even overclocked the Libby. Is there any way to cool down the unit effectively? I am willing to open it up and do some fabrication if needed because... ...I'd also like to know how to wire up a PS/2 port directly from the motherboard. I saw this info on the internet a year ago, but can't find it anymore, and now my friend has good experience with soldering and a decent miniature soldeting iron so I'd like him to solder custom made wiring for a (custom made) PS/2 port straight onto the motherboard. Only thing is that I'd need to know whether it can be done, and what are the pins etc. where I need to solder the PS/2 wires to? That's all for now. Thanks in advance! -John
