040503 - Configured c15 to replace c12.  There were problems setting up the
040504 - disk partitions.  Microsoft initially tried and failed to solve the
040505 - problems.  Contacted Fujitsu technical support.  They registered the
040506 - new computer, but could not solve the problem. ref SDS 0 G16N  Took
040507 - the system to Fry's Service Department, and one of the their
040508 - technicians solved the problem immediately. ref SDS 0 KB7M  Took
040509 - another day to complete configuration getting all the software
040510 - installed and optimizing the OS.  Could not connect the mouse and
040511 - keyboard, eventually had to buy a new mouse with a USB connection, and
040512 - have still not solved the keyboard problem. ref SDS 0 Q45K

040904 - screen 17" and superior visual experience.  It is more than twice as
040905 - fast updating the SDS data base compared to C12, which is a 600 MHz

040929 - C15 has big advantages for a notebook computer replacing C12 (see
040930 - report in another record that the battery and screen are failing,
040931 - ref SDS 19 TP8O), for working while traveling, and for flexibility
040932 - doing homework, say watching television, or on the back porch, using
040933 - wireless networking; support for ergonomic with USB converter to PS2
040934 - keyboard greatly enhances usefulness for intelligence support,
040935 - specified in NWO. ref OF 1 LW5I  Weight disadvantage is thereby offset

060506 - Problem encountered on this setup op was the BIOS lost assignment of
060507 - "auto" for primary hard disk, and reset the assignment as "none." This
060508 - caused days of problems because the CD recognized the hard disk, and
060509 - so executed initial phase 1 setup to partition the disk and copy
060510 - files, but phase 2 setup failed that required the BIOS to read the
060511 - hard disk and boot the computer into the initial Windows XP OS for
060512 - configuration.  Wound up having to take the computer back to Fry's and
060513 - the service department solved the problem by resetting the BIOS.

110819 - reading the CD again to start phase I of setup again.  If the CD is

120639 -  ..
120640 - Dan checked the BIOS.
120642 -  ..
120643 - He found that the Primary Master hard disk was set to "None."  Dan
120644 - explained this prevented the drive from seeing the OS on reboot after
120645 - phase 1 of OS setup, and so it defaulted back to the CD, or reported
120646 - No OS present, per above. ref SDS 0 GE7H
120648 -  ..
120649 - Dan changed the setting from "none" to "Auto,"
120651 -  ..
120652 - He feels that changing the hard dirve from a single to multiple
120653 - partitions caused the BIOS to lose the setting.

120673 - After the system boot successfully to configure the computer for use,
120674 - and after Dan installed the Fujitsu peripherals CD, per above, Dan
120675 - setup an initial configuration without assigning a user name; this
120676 - makes the administrator the User Name.

120679 - As a result, there is no log on and password op.

120682 - This took about 2 hours.  He did not charge for the service.
120684 -  ..
120685 - During performance of the work, Dan mentioned success and benefits he
120686 - has experienced using a Netgear wireless router.  After c15 was
120687 - configured to use WXP, Dan asked me to follow him to the computer
120688 - sales department.  He showed the Netgear Rangemax Wireless Router
120689 - listed at $129.99.  Dan recommended consideration of this equipment to
120690 - apply built-in capabilities on c15 for wireless connectivity to the

830410 - We have 598K RAM, with both dosx.exe and redir.exe in low memory,
830411 - even though autoexec.nt configures these applications to load high.
830413 -  ..
830414 - The problem is that the DOS system program for XP on c15 takes 196592
830415 - bytes of memory.  On c14 this is only 180208, which is 16K less than
830416 - on c15.  This additional 16K for the DOS system file on c15 prevents
830417 - DOSX from loading high, and so must load low, and this reduces RAm for
830418 - program operations in low memory.

830430 - Not sure where redir is used, but dosx.exe is primarily used for
830431 - installing applications that still apply DOS commands.  As a result,
830432 - once a system is configured, there is no need for DOSX for long
