Re: 20gb drive noises

2001-05-14 Thread jason bates

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.

Subject: 20gb drive noises

I finally got around to formatting and installing W98se on
my 20gb drive. The only driver I needed to upgrade was
the video.

After turning off the soundcard, I noticed that the drive
seems to make lots of noises every time I access something
on the drive, or do anything with the mouse. It is a Toshiba
drive.

It's seems like a quick scratching noise of some kind.

Does anyone else's Toshiba 20gb drive make weird
sounds when running programs or accessing stuff on it??

The 4.1gb drive is very quiet... so am wondering.

TIA,
Karen

256 color programs

Since librettos use 16 colors and programs like Photoshop, Encyclopedias, Maps, ect. 
REQUIRE 256 Colors, then is the only way to run these programs with an external 
monitor?

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?  I hope that I can change something 
in there

 I think you are confusing 15 *bit* color with 16 color - the TFT display
of
 a libretto is capable of displaying 64K colors, not 16.

Sounds like something in the bios wasn't right, but I have no idea why it 
might have been trahed by MS...maybe just 'one of those microsoft moments'!

I'll leave the copy of the bios on my site.

Neil,
I was the guy installing a 20 Gig HD on my 50CT and during a win98 install 
something happened that caused the computer to freeze after memory check.
The funny thing was that both HDs worked fine up untill that point.
I tried boot disks, which told me that there was no HD installed.
I tried updating the BIOS which didn't work the first attempt.
I tried grounding pins 8 and 9 on the HDs (both), which didn't work.
I even went back and UNoverclocked the unit which didn't work.

Finally I tried the BIOS again and this time it installed and afterwords 
the computer booted fine.  It is possible that the files were not extracted 
properly the first time.

Horray! Thanks for that link, Neil and the others for their help as well.
www.nbarnes.easynet.co.uk/Binaries/1014v650.exe
I am guessing that the win98 install shut down in the middle of a BIOS 
update, leaving a bad BIOS???
In hindsight it does make sence because the 50CT never was checking for the 
floppy drive-a BIOS function I presume?

Thanks again,
Jason

I think you need to put that on a 720k floppy and boot from that with f12

Not really the same problem.  My 810 runs just fine.  Heck, I've even (bad,

avail.  The 4.3 spins up as well btw...

  Hi
 
  I'm having what appears to be the same problem as Alex:
 
  I installed a 20 gig HD on my libretto 50 ct which worked fine for about 
one day while I installed win95 then win98.  I left the win 98 install at 
about 80% and when I came back it will initialize the memory and then stall 
for about 5 min.
 
  Using a boot disk, there was once a message that said something like 
"...because there is no hard drive installed."  The HD is getting power 
because it is spinning, and now THE OLD 800 mb HD does the exact same 
thing.
