Hey ppl, I just stumbled into a Sony PRD-155SB, ie the whole kit with the drive, soundbox, pcmcia card and cabling, including unopened documenation and installation disks. Any interest in the images from the disks? Disk 1 is "Sony - Installation Software Ver. 1.2". It has both DOS and Windows …

Cute stuff. Thanks for sharing! PS I thought it had something to do with X-com game, so maybe it's worth editing the thread name to be more relevant.

You sure that isn't just being caused by bad capacitors in the laptop and/or the AC adapter? I'm sure that in my case it was not the AC adapter, as I use it also with another laptop (A31p) and have no issues whasoever. As for the caps in the laptop, theoretically it's possible. Yet, BoD is a well …

I had exactly same problem with my A21p. It just shutted off while OS installation. I think this how the Blink of Death manisfests on early stages. I finally managed to install the OS, but It was like 5 years ago and I don't remember how exactly. I think I removed all extra devices like modem, …

You may want to try the original OS that it came with. There are recovery CDs for your model (some are in german IIRC). https://archive.org/details/LegacyThinkPadRecovery As for using it for gaming, Pentium 90 is fine for playing Doom and maybe Duke3d on low settings. Quake is not really playable.

When is a 386 not a 386 though, just occurred to me that 486SLC machines are more 386ey than 486ey. Now that might be more of a stretch though, finding premium screen with budgety CPU, though I know Zenith/Packard-Bell laptops had 486SLC to try for another bite of the cherry when 486 were wanted by …
