My old MV740 is probably showing it's age but I think the focus needs a little turn. There are three black presets built into the Line O/P Trx. These seem to be deliberatly gummed up. Does anyone know which is the focus? Any comments welcome Ted

Combatibility question by [email protected]
Would a replacement cd-rw/dvd-rom that works in Presario 1700 also fit a Presario 1500? I am selling the 1700 drive on ebay and a potential buyer was wondering if it would work with his 1500.
