Hello subscribers, I have a previously owned 755CD (Pentium) supplied to me through my job, and I'm wondering if anyone has experienced quirks like these: NT 4.0 was impossible to install. It became clear to me that IBM's NT3.51 drivers wouldn't cut it. Because of an apparent inability to have the floppy and CD running simultaneously, I had to load the NT files onto the HD and run NT from the existing FAT partition. I am running Windows 95 under duress until IBM can catch up. My old Y-cable which routes a full-size keyboard and PS/2 mouse into a single mouse port is often undetected by Windows 95, resulting in a "no mouse attached" message, because I''ve also disabled the TrackPoint. Win95 usually detects the mouse through the Y if I mouse around frantically before the desktop appears. This is pretty much my biggest pet peeve for now. I installed an additional 16MB SIMM, which confused the CPU for a few startups. All I could think to do was switch the chips around a couple times. This seemed to make it work, so I didn't ask any questions. I would really appreciate it if someone could answer some of these questions: Is FaxWorks Voice the only package that allows the 755CD to be used as a speakerphone? Does an external Floppy drive exist for the TP755? Is Iomega considering a Zip drive designed to fit in the internal floppy bay? Is there a CPU upgrade available for the 755CD to take it past 75MHz? Just the typical stuff... Thanks, Fred Sobotka
