Presario 1525US & 802.11b multiport by SSeaW
My wireless connection is all setup and running like a charm right now. But I have one concern. The fan seems to NEVER shut off! Is this normal? If the fan is constantly running when I'm connected via a wireless connection, isn't it draining my battery faster?

Presario 1650 laptop - floppy drive by [email protected]
The floppy drive on my 1650 laptop would do nothing but make a grinding noise. Thinking I could run without a floppy I removed the cable from the zif connector and fired it up. It stopped the noise but it also shut down the cd-rom drive. Are these two somehow interconnected? Im wondering if I might...

Presario 17XL3 Drivers by Herb Stein
Anyone out there have Windows 2000 drivers for the Presario 17XL3 internal card? I believe it's a NIC/modem combo but Compaq doesn't list any drivers on its web site. This an old laptop that originally came with Windows 98 as far as I know. -- Herb Stein
