Q11.
What kind of mouse can I use?
Just about any mouse can be used with the LT, provided it uses the
A.
RS-232C serial interface (like the Microsoft Serial-PS/2 Mouse).
Q12.
Can the amount of RAM memory be increased?
A.
No. Epson does not provide any memory expansion capabilities.
Q13.
Can I use a light pen?
No. Even though the necessary I/O registers are present, there is no
A.
connector for the light pen.
What kind of external FDD can use with the LT?
Q14.
The external FDD interface was designed to be compatible with the
A.
Toshiba laptops (such as the T1100+), so any external 5.25" FDD that
works with a Toshiba will work with the LT. One such drive is the
model NTHLPFL from the Nth Group in Canoga Park, California. Their
phone number is (818) 883-5506.
Q15.
How many FDDs are supported by the LT?
A.
As with most laptops, the ROM BIOS will support two FDDs. Even if
you have an external drive connected, you still can only access drives
A and B.
Q16.
When an external FDD is connected to the LT, which drive letter
should be assigned to the external drive?
A.
DIP switch 2 (on the
drive will be A or B. Typically, you would assign it as A if you were
using copy-protected software that requires a "key" disk, or running
certain game programs that require booting from drive A. Otherwise,
it's a matter of personal preference.
Q17.
Is it possible to use a 360 KB and a 1.2 MB FDD?
A.
No. The LT supports a 250 KB per second transfer rate, so the 360 KB
drive works fine. The 1.2 MB FDD uses a higher transfer rate and is,
therefor, not compatible.
