My 760ed has recently, the last three mornings, been difficult to get
started. It powers up to the thinkpad screen but that is it. I hear
a single strangled squack from the speaker and then nothing else
happens it just hangs. This morning it took about 20 min to get the
thing started.
I have removed and replugged all of the bay componnets i.e. drives,
battery and such, with no change. It does not even get to the floppy
so my emergency startup disk doesn't work.
I recently updated to Office 97, which made me delete several prgrams
(not enough disk space) in order to install it. I do not know if
this could effect the start-up?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Sandy Hines
