Those were the same programs I had with the card (and are virus-free, as can be obtained directly from Psion's site). However, I finally found what was wrong, so just in case that somebody has the same problem I'll say what it was: it's just that Windows95 didn't install the TCP/IP protocol together with the phone network access' (sorry, I'm translating from Spanish, it's the language I use on my L30), so I went to 'control panelnetwork' and installed it. And it worked! Now I'm writing this using my L30 with a new 6GB HDD (much faster than the other).

L30
Date: Fri, 08 Jun 2001 18:04:31 +0100 From: Miguel S.R. [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: L30 Thanks, Neil for the information, and Anthony for your offer. I have tried to contact Morgan Computers, but they didn't reply my email yet. However, Anthony, please let me know how the repair of your L30 goes, as I'd be interested in purchasing your memory module, and maybe some other bits. By the way, it has taken me so long to reply because since I upgraded my hard drive, some days ago, I haven't been able to make my PCMCIA modem work -now I'm writing this from another computer. The modem is a PSION-DACOM V34 GOLD CARD. I have been searching for help on Toshiba's and Psion's sites, but nothing of what they indicate makes it work. The thing is, I had the same problem in the beginning, when the card was first installed, but after a lot of tries, it finally worked, and after trying the same things, the result is that it connects to the isp, but then it's disconnected, and an error message of the type of 'you were disconnected, please check your configuration' appears, so I must have missed something. Any idea? Could it be possible to copy something from the old drive onto the new one to make the modem work?

a couple of problems with an L30
Date: Fri, 25 Aug 2000 13:37:02 -0400 (EDT) From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: a couple of problems with an L30 Hi there, It´s nice to read your mails again, after a (long) while. Some things never seem to change, and as it happened before, I need your help. The first problem I have is this: after taking the L30 to a Toshiba official repair centre, they deleted everything on its hard disk, therefore I had to install again W95 (I used the Spanish version, as it's the one I have), and after doing this, some of the keys didn't work. I though that it was not so strange for some of them, because the keyboard is a Korean one (I don't know much about Korean, but it isn't Japanese, its letters don't look like the Japanese ones I've seen on the web). There are some others which should work, but they don't: the windows key, and the "menu" key (the one which has the same effect as clicking on something with the right button of a mouse -the lower one of the libretto). Does anybody know what I should do to make them work? Maybe there is a special driver for this type of keyboard, but I can't find it anywhere! The second problem I have is that the serial port of the replicator doesn't work, and I don't know if it's a problem of the port itself, or on the contrary, it has something to do with a wrong installation (or the lack) of something. The strange thing is that the L30 finds it (the serial port) and automatically installs the drivers, but after this, I can't use the modem I have (it works correctly, as it's the one I'm using now with another computer, but it's not detected), nor a mouse (again, it isn't detected). The parallel port seems to work fine. I don't even know how to check what kind of problem it has, as I'm the only person I know who has a Libretto. Any suggestion? Thanks in advance.

Date: Fri, 25 Aug 2000 18:21:38 GMT From: "neil barnes" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: a couple of problems with an L30 Miguel, I can't answer your keyboard problem: but AFAIK the com1 port itself is on the motherboard - the level conversion to RS232 levels is handled in a couple of chips in the expansion port - so if the machine sees the port it's likely it's the expansion unit that's dead. Anyone know if it's the same expansion unit as the 60/60/70? PN CAB0346A ? In which case, I have a spare here in the UK...

Re: Problem with L30
Date: Mon, 22 May 2000 13:24:12 -0700 From: TechnoDragon [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Problem with L30 Someone suggested "zipping" the WIN95 diskette set onto about 40 diskettes? Sounds like a lot of trouble to me. Do you have a parallel Iomega ZIP drive or know anyone that has one? The WIN 98 files will fit on two ZIP disks and the DOS drivers for the ZIP drive are available on the IOMEGA website. This is the way I do it when I re-format my Libby. That would be me. I did also mention using a parallel port zip drive in my email, and recommended finding someone with one so that it could be borrowed. I also mentioned that the floppy method could be done with only two floppies (one .cab at a time), albeit longer. After all, not everyone has access to a floppy drive, and many people want to set up their libretto with what they have, and not have to go out and buy stuff. The floppy method, as I described earlier, only requires a libretto floppy drive. And most libretto users have that, not a whole lot have no floppy drive. Whenever I setup a system, I like to create a second partition (using partition manager and partition resizer to prevent everything else on the system from getting nuked) and put everything on the win95 / win98 folder of my windows cd there so that if my drive get's foobared, I just type in "format c: /q /s" then "d:\setup". Makes reinstallation a snap. :) | the ·TechnoDragon· | | [EMAIL PROTECTED]| | http://www.blarg.net/~tdragon/ | ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://libretto.basiclink.com/archive - Archives http://www.picante.com/~gtaylor/portable/faq.html - FAQ ---UNSUBSCRIBE--- mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=cmd:unsubscribe UNSUBSCRIBE DIGEST-- Use above but add DIGEST to the subject line... **
