Actually your post is in the wrong place, it should be in the "Hardware" forum. Please delete it using the purple tabs at the top.
I have copied it and will start it off in "Hardware" for you under the title "RG 91's post"
Cheers
EDIT: sorry you use the purple "edit" tab.............but it does not really matter..........just respond to the new thread I have opened and watch the replies

It is a Toshiba, and comes in useful when I have a Windows 95 support issue.
