The screen blanks - though the light doesn't go away - and the blooms as the charge on the LCD cells decays. Nasty, and I'm not sure what it's doing to the screen. What I'd like to do is arrange things so that the screen light turns off and the screen is muted to black before that happens...is that feasible? Feel free to take it offline if there's no linux interest here!

Re: Help.. 70ct w/winME runs scandisk after every reboot???
Date: Thu, 25 Jan 2001 11:01:47 -0500 From: "Lawrence Young" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Help.. 70ct w/winME runs scandisk after every reboot??? The reason for the ScanDisk running at startup is that you have a bad shutdown. Disable the ScanDisk does not solve any thing. Sooner or later, your disk will get corrupted because of the improper shutdown. Windows has a Write-back file cache mechanism. When OS or application want to write something to your disk, it does not write to the disk directly. Instead, it writes to the memory cache and will write back to disk after certain time (30 seconds?) to speed up the disk performance. In many times, a bad shutdown does not cause any problem but some time it does. When it happens, in most case, you have a corrupted FAT table and Scandisk will try to recover it with the backup FAT table and fix the mis-linked clusters. Without doing this house keeping, you're risking losing new data you stored into the system sooner or later. You should try to identify the true reason why the machine does not shutdown properly. - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: "Libretto" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, January 25, 2001 10:49 AM Subject: Re: Help.. 70ct w/winME runs scandisk after every reboot???

Date: Thu, 25 Jan 2001 21:34:56 - From: "Matthew Hanson" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Help.. 70ct w/winME runs scandisk after every reboot??? Anthony, Good to hear you managed to work this out. I went into my W98's msconfig, and found the same setting for "Disable Scandisk after bad shutdown". That box was already checked, I guess because I'd manually set the value in my msdos.sys file. BUT REMEMBER! This is not really a fix for your problem, because now, ScanDisk will NEVER run after a crash. ScanDisk NEEDS to be run after most crashes in order to straighten out a lot of operating system problems that will just build up and make your system run worse and worse with time. If you never find out how to get your system to run ScanDisk automatically and correctly ONLY after a crash, and not every time you reboot remember to run ScanDisk manually after every crash. I put an icon for ScanDisk right on my desktop (right click the desktop, choose "New" and then choose "Shortcut" from the next menu and browse to C:\Windows\Scandskw.exe. The filename in ME might be slightly different). After rebooting from a crash, it's convenient to have the icon right there.
