Howdy! Ben and ALL,

After putting the notebook back together the Display didn't have
anything on it when I turned it on.

I "think" the OS and BIOS is working because when I hold a Key down
for a while I can hear some beeping sounds.

I've opened it back up to see if I can see anything I forgot to do.

One thing I learned is that working on a Desktop machine is a lot
easier.

Inside my notebook are some very thin cables to plug in to sockets,
I haven't seen any thing like that in the few Desktops I have been
in to.

Since I'm hearing the beeping sound when I hold a Key down I'm "thinking"
I got the new BIOS battery in correctly.
I said this because when I got the cover off of the battery holder,
the Cell flipped out.

My memory says that when I looked at the Cell Holder before I took the top
off, that I saw Printing on the Cell, so I put the new Cell in the same
way.

I'm guessing if I put the BIOS Battery in backwards that I couldn't hear
the noise in the speaker when I held a key down.

Hopefully when I put it back together again I will have better results.

I turned it on today with the old HDD in it.

So far  Win95 PC = 1     Ed = 0
