Hi - This is a pointing device error when the TrackPoint II is enabled. To fix, try these steps in order until it works (from IBM's Hardware Maint. Manual) - 1. Reseat the keyboard Track Point II cable at the interposer card (what it plugs in to). 2. Replace the keyboard if this doesn't work. 3. Replace the external mouse (if you are using one). 4. Replace the system board. As for when you remove whatever and then this doesn't happen, well - I have no idea what that means, nor does the Maint. Manual say anything about it. I imagine another work around might be turning off the TP-II and using a mouse. Billy Y.. > I have had trouble in getting a TP750 to boot.
