Yes, when Windows updates the system time it will also change the clock in BIOS. Interesting, I thought windows didn't have access to the BIOS in such a way. I did uncheck the NNTP server, so I'll remove all power and see what happens. The cmos battery has voltage of 3.40volts or so at the moment.

Do the clocks in Windows and the BIOS show the same time? I thought I answered that question in the first post but maybe I was unclear. Yes, they both show the same time. If windows was set to a NNTP server, then could windows somehow set the BIOS time too? I am wondering though, if one was to leav...

I have noticed this a few times. When I remove the battery as well as the AC adapter for a few days, then try to start the T23, windows shows the clock 3 hours behind. I checked the Bios, and it also is 3 hours behind. Suspecting that it was the CMOS battery, I took that out and checked the voltage ...

Doh, I thought that 4306 was shorthand for 94306. Sorry.

Its Item no 370108772933 on ebay.

There are two cables coming from the computer, one named "main" and the other one "aux". Then there is a bigger blue plastic connector that goes in also. However, with the 4306 on ebay, it says in the auction description that the card only has one antenna connector. Will that still work? Do I connec...

I have searched the forums and the consensus is that if one need to upgrade their wi-fi network card, then these are the choices: Intel 2200BG, Intel 2915 ABG Broadcom 4306 (b/g), Broadcom 4309 (a/b/g). I have looked on ebay, and came away confused. The Intel 2200BG is there, but many auctions speci...

I turned on the windows zero config, but that doesn't help. The Belkin driver works, but its the same version as the gateway, hence no wpa. The xdrivers doesn't work either, gives a similar error as some of the other ones have given when I launch setup: --------------------------- Setup Error ------...

Cool, good to hear. As a FYI for anyone else that stumbles to this thread, the Broadcom chipset on my first post is incompatible with the T23 IF you want to use WPA/WPA2. I only got a gateway driver (version 3.x) to work, and that provided only wep security. All the others from HP or, Broadcom eithe...

I guess any of these might work: bcmwl5.sys Link ------------- ------------------------------------------------------- 3.20.23.0 http://nicolas.bonifas.free.fr/inspiron/bcmwl5.sys http://www.fujitsupc.com/downloads/Wireless_Broadcom_802.11g_WPA_V3.20.23.0_XP_2K.exe http://files.codykrieger.com/mn720...

I tried a few from HP (including the one above), some of them go through the install but they don't detect the card. I tried to point to the driver folder through windows as well, but the card names do not appear in the dialog box that comes after you have selected the folder in "Have Disk". I think...

Not sure which driver to try. Someone mentioned to use a gateway driver, which worked but doesn't support WPA.

Found a Dell mini-PCI adapter and am trying to install it. So far, I haven't had much luck. There are drivers for it on the net, but some give errors like "software not compatible with hardware". I did get one really old driver to work, but its back from '02 which doesn't support WPA. Here is the mo...

PM sent, thanks.

I obtained a T23 and am trying to reinstall Win2K on it. It has a COA in the back, but I am not sure if its OEM or regular retail 2K. It says "Windows 2000 Professional 1-2 CPU IBM Corporation Product Key: xxx, no mention of OEM. 09N1795 < Not sure what that is. X08-73013 <this is on the left side o...
