I remember playing Settlers 2 hot seat split screen with two mice on the same PC 😁
Nice notebook. I'm amazed the CCFL light is still good.
Yes, it's clear and full of contrasts.
I hace a t2130ct with the same screen and it's as good as this one !
Nice laptops. I have a 300 or 320 cds (yes, horrible screen). Very compatible VGA and sound, good keyboard, PS2 port with y cable support stated by the manufacturer.
Hi guys,
I have a problem with my tandy 3000NL. It seems to be related to the CMOS battery but I thought it could work with a dead battery.
Am I wrong ?
The problem is that I can't run the setup program due to a fatal error at the start :
"ERRORS FOUND -
CONFIGURATION ERROR BAD MEMORY SIZE MISCOMPAREDISK C: FAILED INITIALIZATION
ADDRESS 20 WRITE 5A VERIFY 5B
FATAL ERROR - CMOS RAM WRITE ERROR - SETUP ABORTED"
This other error occurs some times too :
"ERRORS FOUND -
CONFIGURATION RECORD BAD
ADDRESS 20 WRITE 5A VERIFY 5B
FATAL ERROR - CMOS RAM WRITE ERROR - SETUP ABORTED"
I've also noticed that my time is recorded even when I disconnect the CMOS battery but not the date...
Any idea ?
My main goal is to configure my hard drive...
No one ?
There's a lot of boards that ether refuse to post or don't function properly with a dead CMOS battery. I'd start by changing the battery and go from there. If it's a soldered on barrel battery make sure it hasn't leaked and I'd remove it regardless and replace it
Ok, thank you for your answer.
The exact model is discontinued. Do you know a substitute ? The specs are 3.65V and 1.6Ah. Is this model a Good one :

I can take the wires of the original battery.
As long as the voltages are the same you'll be just fine. Definitely swap the original connector over to make life simpler.
It's hard to find 3.65V. Is 3.6V ok ?
Yup that will be sufficient.
TY 😊
Your welcome. Let us know how it goes.
Hi guys,
Unfortunatly, I still have the same issue after the battery change.. Any idea ?
A Tandy PC is always nice to have for those 80s games.
Hi guys,
Does anybody know how much an IBM Aptiva would normally sell for?
I can't seem to find much about their price anywhere else
Thanks in advance!
It depends which model
Im not sure how to find out about the model but the sticker on the inside says
2144-914 (SL-H)
486DX2-66MHz
8MB/540MB
S/N:55-1C01D
Not sure if that is helpful or not
Thanks again!
Here are some pictures of it. How much is it worth?

The value is going to vary by how far away the person is from you getting it. Shipping of a compete system like this can get quite expensive. I can see each part selling for around ~100 each, but then shipping starts to add on the price. It'd be easy for a person to be in ~$300 before they know it. That's starting to get up there in price for a system. However, these systems especially if in good shape will sell because a lot of adults grew up with these. 😀
Just clean it up and offer nice clear photos. If you're shipping, please wrap it well and pad it sufficiently inside the box. Double-boxing is good!
