    Hardware Questions

    I've turned the system on, but I'm getting no power.

    Make sure your battery is properly charged first. Use the external power supply and see if the notebook powers on.

     

    I have two USB ports in the back, how do I enable them?

    Windows NT 4.0 currently do not support USB. Windows 98/98SE, Windows 2000, Windows Millennium Edition (Me), and Windows XP all come with native USB drivers.

     

    What is the system's maximum memory capacity?

    It is 1GB using two 512MB DDR266 DIMMs.
