Hi, The screen on my Vivante SE seems to have died. Recently it started flickering a lot. It has been flickering for a long time now, though mostly just for...
I did have a couple of wires break out of one of the video connectors plugged into the motherboard in mine, which was the cause of some, though maybe not all...
Hello Brooks, Thanks for the reply. Glad to hear you're able to keep your Transmondes going. I determined that the problem is not a loose connector. So it's ...
Does anyone know what's needed to connect my Vivante SE to a TV? I noticed that there's a "TV Out" socket on the left side, but I'm not sure what sort of...
If I remember correctly, it's probably an S-Video out cable. Some TVs and VCRs have S-Video in jacks. Mine does not, so I have a mess of cables that does...
Hi everyone, Since my Vivante's LCD screen died, I bought a 17" CRT monitor to plug into it. Unfortunately, the images on the CRT are fuzzy. What I've found...
Hey folks, My Vivante SE came with 64 MB of memory and I want to put more into it. If possible, I just want to put in an additional stick of RAM and not waste...
Phil, Just take it to CompUSA or Best Buy and tell them to fill it up. It's cheap enough and they will be able to figure it out. I don't have my TM any more ...
... The Vivante SE I'm typing on has 256Mb, and the manual says "up to a total of 256MB SDRAM" (note the word "total") for two slots. 144 pin 3.3V SODIMM...
... It's cheap ... any more ... Hi Tom, Thanks for the suggestion. I think you mean 192 MB, not 192 KB. That's probably what I am going to upgrade to. That...
... Hi Brooks, Thanks for the reply. I don't have my manual handy, so I couldn't look it up to double check. In that case I'm just going to buy a 128 MB...
... Do you think putting a 256 MB SODIMM in one slot and leaving the other one empty would work? I was looking at prices of the different sizes, and a 256 MB...
... I asked a friend about this. He has built a number of computers and is a programmer by profession. According to him the answer is YES. Since the memory...
... Just thought I'd post a follow-up. It looks like using a single 256 MB SODIMM should work, but only if you get the right kind. Which is apparently the...
Anyone use your Transmonde to burn CDs or DVDs? I've been told that the CPUs in these notebooks are probably too slow for burning DVDs. I'm guessing that...
... Never tried DVD's, but I used to burn CD's all the time, using a PCMCIA SCSI card and an external SCSI HP CD writer. I think I would burn at 4x (the...
... Hi Dan, Thanks for the reply, and sorry for my tardy response. I will soon be buying an external DVD burner, so we'll know the answer before long. It'll...
I just upgraded my Vivante SE to 256 MB. I wish I had done it a couple of years ago. A lot of people recommend Crucial for memory, but I think their RAM is ...
Since my Vivante SE battery is down to about 2/3 to 1/2 the capacity it once had, I've been thinking of getting an external battery pack or two to extend my...
I have a Vivante XL P266 for sale. it has been a great laptop for years, but it is time to upgrade. As usual, I've had to change the CMOS battery from time...
I've used Windows XP on my Vivante SE for a few years, at 133 MHz with a 12 Gig hard drive. It does well. But at that speed it's a bit slow for today's...
Hi Dave, Thanks for the reply. That's interesting. I never would've guessed that WinXP would run on a 133 MHz processor. The reason I asked about Windows XP...
Hi Phil, OOPS! I made a typo. The speed is 233, not 133, Pentium II, 256 MB. Sorry for the confusion. Dave Phil Calvert <pcalvert@...> wrote: Hi...
