This is a shot in the dark but I'm hoping someone will be able to help. I've scored a Toshiba PA2717U Enhanced Port Replicator III on eBay for my Toshiba Satellite 4100XCDT. It broadly works but in Windows 98 SE it keeps saying "Windows was unable to determine your current hardware configuration. Select one from the list." It then gives me the option of selecting "Dock 1" or "Undocked". It didn't come with a driver disk but I'm guessing if I had the right software or utility installed it would pick it up automatically. Does anyone have the driver/disk image please? I've spent ages looking but have come up with nothing so far.

Secondarily, a scan of the manual for the dock and/or the laptop would be greatly appreciated.

Thirdly, I've not managed to get the spacer. It does work but doesn't quite sit right. I need the Toshiba PA2730U Enhanced Port Replicator III Spacer but am struggling to find one. If anyone knows of one in or shipping to the UK for sale, then I'd be willing to buy it.

Thank you

Michael

I just wanted to follow up and say that I'd found all the drivers for the laptop here:

and the Toshiba Mobile Extensions 3 (the older version/link for Windows 2000 but works on 98) here:

Still looking for the spacer and manuals if anyone can help please.

Edit 06/12/2020 so I don't bump this unneccessarily:
I found the spacer from a shop online in Germany. Got it shipped and it fitted perfectly.
