Hello everyone,
First of I wanted to thank @modem7 for the invaluable ressources he maintains on toshiba laptops (and I've got loads of those)
I've started reviving a toshiba T2000. It's a 80286 12Mhz laptop.
This repair is difficult because it involves recapping 3 boards (lcd, inverter, motherboard) and also the darn thing has multiple batteries in it; undocumented.
My questions
1) Does anyone have the setup utilities/floppy for a T2000. This seems to be a very specific floppy with utilities that say T2000 in the menues. Can't find them anywhere...
2) Does anyone know what type of battery is the "sub battery". It's a thin long yellow thingie, maybe 5 AAA cells glued together. Tech manual doesn't say.
3) Tech manual also speak about an "rtc battery". This ; I simply can't find anywhere. Where the heck is it ?
Thanks !
If I succeed, I'll probably have the last running T2000 on earth... If not i'll ragequit this hobby again
