Description

Change History

    Version 8.00 ???02-07-2000
    • A change was made to support Windows 2000.
    • A problem was corrected that when running Windows 98, with a SCSI card used in the PCMCIA slot, and the computer set to "Standby", the computer would hang when shut down.
    • Corrected a problem where having the "USB Legecy=Enabled" set in the BIOS, and entering some keys on a Japanese USB keyboard, was impossible.
    • Corrected a problem of installing a driver from the FDD. Installing a driver was impossible when a new device was detected during Windows 98 installation.
    • This version was re-packaged / re-posted on Feb 20, 2003.

    Version 7.50 ???08-19-1998

    • Corrected a problem where the machine didn't boot when turning it on after cold docking the machine with the Enhanced Port Replicator III.
    • Corrected a problem where the system would hang during a resume if the system was docked with an Enhanced Port Replicator III under WinNT5.0.
    • Corrected a problem where the system could intermittently hang when trying to exit HyperTerm under Win98.

    Version 6.30 ???08-13-1998

    • Corrected an issue which could cause the display to hang in the Corel Draw 5.0 application.

    Version 7.40 ???08-10-1998

    • Corrected to eliminate the problem where, under Windows 98, the display state would be left with only a blinking cursor after a Display auto-off event when the Toshiba Windows 98 Utilities are installed.
    • Corrected to pass the unreported memory test (HCT 7.6)

    Version 7.20 ???07-13-1998

    • Adds ACPI functionality for Windows 98

    Version 6.20 ???06-11-1998

    • Corrected a problem which, in Windows NT, prevented the Display Auto Off and HDD Off from working correctly.
    • Corrected a problem, which in Windows 98 (Bld1723.4 and greater), could cause system hangs after resume. This failure would occur after resuming a system which had been put into standby mode with the USB Legacy Enabled.
    • A modification has been made to allow the system to boot from a TEAC CD-ROM drive.

    Version 6.10 ???04-27-1990
