As a new ThinkPad 760 owner, I've landed up with a few questions I need
some help on. I have not yet called IBM on these (it is Friday evening and
assume Ill have to wait until Monday AM to talk to someone. Also, I like to
get some advanced info before I speak with the manufacturer)
First, sometimes while the machine is running, disk access will cause the
screen to slightly flicker. Enough to be noticed, but not enough to
interfere with the operation. But it is annoying...does this happen with
other TP's?
Second, the bottom gets extremely hot while using it. Again, is this
normal? It seems to be a large waste of energy (since it takes energy to
create heat, and there's a lot being created!!)
Does anyone know if IBM supplies a recovery CD to completely rebuild the
machine to get back to the original condition as when it was shipped? For
Win95 and/or WinNT?
And last, I'm using the TP with a Dock II station -- NT 4.0 can't detect
when the system is docked. Is that because something is wrong, or a lack of
plug-n-play support?
Thanks for ANY help!!
Steve
