An optional desktop expansion base accommodates two 8/16-bit slots, and an optional external storage module houses a 5.25 floppy drive or a 40Mb tape back-up unit. Internally installed options include 1Mb memory boards to extend the memory beyond the standard 640Kb up to a maximum of 3.6Mb an asynchronous communications board and an 80C287 co-processor. The Compaq SLT/286 comes in two models, the Model 20 and the Model 40 both include a liquid crystal, supertwist VGA display with eight shades of grey, 29mS average access 20Mb or 40Mb 3.5 Winchesters from Conner Peripherals Inc, 3.5 1.44Mb floppy drive, and an 82-key removable keyboard, running MS-DOS and OS/2. Anyway thank you folks for at least reading, at least part of it.With the prediction that sales of battery laptops will outstrip mains-powered devices by two to one in 1989, Compaq Computer Corp today announces a 12MHz CMOS 80286-based battery powered laptop computer of its own design. I solely bought this for nostalgic reasons and live some of my youth for a bit. So short of trying to stress upon finding another, I heard of just cutting connections at the PSU and lost the page where I did see it.īut basically bypassing something in regards of the PSU and using a battery to power the unit? I could be wrong but this is one reason I created an account looking for an idea. So first use and burnt original power supply. Power adapter was fogging up and boy it stank up the place for hours. 5 min later, I hear a scream from wifey and I ran out. So shut it off and left it plugged in and went to the other room. Kinda got tired of it (you know something, kinda dawned on me to check if there was a HD, I’m new to this after all) I’ve tried both Y and N, editing time, date multiple times and keeps round robin on me and won’t load the drive. Purchased with Compaq utility disk and sat on it for a couple of days and when first turning on kept asking me about if the utility was run prior to charging battery.
Greetings fellow vintage fans! Recently jumped aboard the SLT/286 bandwagon and picked up a decent one and I think I made a boo boo.
