My wife is in need of a portable computer with wireless so I was trying to
press one of the old OB800CTs into service.  I thought I had put in an old
OB HDD but it turned out to be a 20GB one from an old Portege 3020CT.  Win98
is on the disc so after some churning it booted, much to my surprise.  But
so far the PCMCIA ports don't work and it freezes when I attach the OB
CDROM.  Any ideas how I can get the OB drivers on without starting from
scratch?  Somewhere I have an old Avatar Shark parallel port drive and an
old Zip drive but haven't tried them yet.  Maybe load files from the
parallel port?  Thanks for any info,  Scott Stewart
