My Toshiba 205CDS beeps incessantly at startup which slows down bootup
process. It sounds like a morse code transmission. By hitting the
spacebar, I can get it to quit and it boots much faster. I was also
getting an orange on light that came on right after turning on (from
green) and stayed on until just before shut down. I downloaded an upgrade
from MS Windows that corrected the later problem.
I am also getting the screens "Find" and "Rename" that suddenly appear
when I am in Outlook Express and also in Wordperfect 8. Sometimes I can
get the Find to close but the Rename stays eventho’ I X it out or try to
cancel.
I would appreciate any help that you might be able to give. Thanks in
advance for your help.
