The PCMCIA slots didn't work because you have to use the PC Card wizard to set them up after the initial install (protects you if you had real-mode drivers running before.) The sound didn't work because Win95 doesn't have native drivers for it. I don't know why the COM port didn't work. I know mine is listed in the hardware list, but I've not actually tried using it to see if it works (just assumed that it would). > 2) I installed the Audio Features from the Audio Features Diskette v 1.31 > > It didn't work at first, so I editted SYSTEM.INI and put the following in > [386enh] section: > > device=tpaudvxd.386 > > All the other sections in SYSTEM.INI were set up OK, and all the files were > copied to the right place. Just the [386enh] section was wrong. Yep.

To use the Win95 Western Digital driver at any resolution higher than 640x480x16, the VESA.EXE driver from the Video Features disk must be loaded in config.sys. I'm assuming that the 750 and the 750Ce have the same video specs (I'm pretty sure they do.) Wesley Dunaway
