- There should be something wrong with my 3 full page message that final-
- ly the middle portion disappeared. Many students here complained about this
- problem that might be caused by some bugs in the OS (after logging in from SUN
- system).
-
- Let me tell you my problem again. I bought my Toshiba laptop three
- years ago. It is a T1600 model with 12 MHz 80286 CPU. I want to upgrade the
- CPU to 386SX or higher so I can run OS2 and many memory menagement utilities.
- I call many companies about their upgrade boards but all of them are not
- compatible with this model. Although, some of them work really well with many
- 286 laptops e.g. some models of Compaq and Toshiba(T3200).
-
- These products are not compatible with Toshiba T1600;
- -Intel Snap-in boards
- -Kingston SX Now boards
- -AOX Stax boards
- -AST boards
- -Cumulus boards
- etc.
- These boards are really small (e.g. credit card size). All of them can directly
- plug in 286 socket(emulate 286 BUS) and can use the existing RAM & 287 on the
- main board. I will call many more vendors that I 've just found them from the
- lastest PC & electronic magazines including Tech Direct, Sota Tech and Orchid
- Tech., etc.
-
- If someone can help me about the upgrading, have some suggestions, or
- just want to tell me somethings, please let me know (phone, fax, TELNET or
- letter).
-
- Thanks
