Re: 20gb drive noises
Date: Mon, 14 May 2001 21:51:31 -0700 From: jason bates [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: 20gb drive noises yes, my 20 gig toshiba HD makes quick scratchy noises too. Its movements must be 5X more precise than a 4gig, assuming the same # of platters. It may be spinning faster as well. I kind of like the noises. Wish I had done win98 SE instead of 98 version 1, what a pain. I now have the 98SE full install but we all know it won't let me use the full version to update unless I go through renaming and removing key files. F_microsoft. How many millions of people are they screwing over to get them to shell out another $100 for the 98SE update disk? Certainly they COULD have allowed the full SE version to update version 1. $200 for OS and $500 for Office? Maybe that's why the economy is stalling, Microsoft has all the money. I've started to use StarOffice (FREE at Sun's site, and impressive. Saves and opens .DOC and .XLS formats, and very similar to office) and plan on trying out a dual boot with Linux.

Re: 256 color programs
Date: Sun, 15 Apr 2001 10:30:01 -0700 From: "jason bates" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: 256 color programs photoshop and other programs won't run because my libretto is not displaying 256 colors. When I go to the control panel for display settings, it says 16 colors 640X480 pixels. So I change it to 256 colors, restart, and on startup I get a warning that "there is a problem with your display settings...they don't work with your hardware." So it resets to 16 colors. The same happens with the "high color 16 bit" mode. When I go to the adorable libretto site, it says that all the displays are 16 colors. What is the key to press on startup to enter BIOS?
