Just wanted to introduce myself. My lab. bought me a 755CDV to use for presentations and teaching. The use on an overhead is a very good feature (I find). It's a shame they discontinued it. Altohugh I sent off the registration forms in December to IBM (Switzerland), they never sent anything back to me. That's a bit of a problem as I have a number of difficulties with the machine and the help line (I presume) requires you to give them a registration number. I got rid of OS2 and installed win95, which works quite well. There's various small problems (most are documented in the various files wrt win95 on the IBM pc site). However, recently two things started mysteriously happening. First, when booting on win95 it keeps trying to access the A: drive, even when the CD-ROM is installed. The "My Computer" icon shows both A: and D: (the cdrom). I'm using the win95 default drivers for the cdrom (BTW). If I exit to DOS and return to win95 after, the cdrom is no longer visible. I've checked the various boot files and .ini files, but no mention is made to A: in any of them. More seriously, I can no longer access PCMCIA cards. The win95 PCMCIA wizard tells me that the slots are empty. I reinstalled the IBM PCMCIA drivers, and they tell me the same thing. The EZ test gives me an OK on PCMCIA1 (2 is greyed out). -Afzal Ballim
