Here's a possible manual if they fit the specifications (P MMX, NeoMagic 2MB, 64 MB EDO?):

If it matches, you may find drivers here, unfortunately in Japanese: https://download-drv.com/contents/drivers/del … titude_LT01.htm
Clicking on the blue text on the right side of each line takes you to a new page, where you'll find a link to the Dell website with the appropriate driver at the bottom of the line under the URL.

Googling latitude lt brings up this support page for the latitude lt. See if this has what you need.

I had seen the Dell support page, but it doesn't even show a photo of the item, which I thought was weird.

I hadn't seen the CNET article - not sure why it didn't appear in my search results, but yes that does appear to be the item in question.

Hadn't see this either, but luckily I got the laptop with the User Guide and Restore CD so have all the dirvers required 😀

The fact that the BIOS doesn't go above the release one (A00) suggests to me that it was only on the market for a short time.

I'll keep digging...

Bumping to add more info on this laptop.
It appears to have been released in 1999, and only was available for a few months. One was up on eBay recently, I didn't end up buying it.
I put all the information I could find on my website: https://macdat.net/pc/dell/latitude/lt_home.html

Is there any chance you could image the Restore CD and preserve it on archive.org?

Weird release in general. Dell had the slightly larger 12.1" Latitude LS out around the same time, and that one's far more common. I get the feeling from the design that Dell didn't actually make it, and that it was likely a slightly redesigned/rebadged generic laptop from one of the Taiwanese ODM companies, maybe Quanta or Compal as Dell worked with them a lot back then (and still do).

Best I can tell from the Drivers page it used a Neomagic MagicGraph128XD 2MB video chip on the PCI bus and had Crystal CS4237B audio.

Yeah I've gotta update that, thanks for the reminder.

Another way to get drivers: https://web.archive.org/web/20200713184934/ht … atitude-lt.html
The Internet Archive got this pretty complete pull of Dell's /published/pages section which used to be really nice way to find stuff without the service tag, all the way back to their first computers.

So this thing's got Neomagic 2160 graphics and Crystal CS4237B sound. I wonder if it's really made by another OEM?
Some pictures especially one with an FCCID would give a clue, maybe it was made by Samsung, Sharp or NEC, maybe a taiwanese ODM? Dell always did this, there's a bunch of their monitors in Europe that were just relabelled Nokia CRTs. I think one of their later ultraportables the Dell Latitude X300 was a rebadged Samsung.

I definitely think it was ODM'd, doesn't look like any other Dell laptop. No FCC ID present though. Compal and Quanta are the most likely since Dell used and still uses them a lot. Could also be Uniwill just based off looks, but I've never seen that exact system branded under a different name. Quanta did make the LS and L400 and Gateway sold the same Quanta system under their Solo line.

Thanks for linking that archived support page, very useful. One thing I wish I could find was the LED error code tables for the Latitude C Series. I swear they used to be available but aren't anymore.

Forget what I said about Compal and Quanta, this was very likely made by Sharp. I looked up the UL Listing code on the bottom sticker of one in an ebay listing and it led back to Sharp. Now that I've seen the name connected to them, it makes sense. I've seen a very similar looking Sharp laptop before.

Found it, Sharp Actius PC-A150. That’s the same machine.

Awesome detective work 😀 I had a feeling it might be Sharp since they had an MMX laptop that looked similar from that time period but my searching didn't come up with much.

Photos of one here.

Sorry - for some reason I've not been getting notified of updates to this thread. Great detective work folks.

@3lectr1c I'll dig it out and try and fill in some of the blanks for your website....
