For those looking for a replacement power adapter, this should work. http://www.ebay.com/itm/9V-2A-AC-DC-Power-Supply-Replacement-Adapter-with-3-0mm-x-6-3mm-Tip-Center-/361490633905?hash=item542a8554b1:g:DC4AAOSwjXRXaHJJL5https://www.blogger.com/profile/06439369329418293057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7534060879324399856.post-41840222513051344482017-02-06T14:05:06.558-08:002017-02-06T14:05:06.558-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.L5https://www.blogger.com/profile/06439369329418293057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7534060879324399856.post-30482056003525175352015-03-31T10:54:13.430-07:002015-03-31T10:54:13.430-07:00Try this:

There are four pins for the battery connector. If anybody knows how the battery is wired (4 in parallel or series) I'd like to know.

Had to clean the motherboard and replace the battery to get it to work tho.<br /><br />It seems when the battery dies, it may leak a bit of conductive fluid on the mainboard. It's hard to see, everything looked clean, but if you use a multimeter you'll notice right away as PCB's shouldn't be conductive. :)<br /><br />After cleaning that it worked like a charm. Another little unknown fact is that the rom chip in the T1000 is 512KB altho only 256KB is used. <br /><br />Still looking for more documentation. I don't have the original manuals. Hoping they contain more information on how to use the ROM DOS / EMS Card I/O registers directly.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10873873186519596837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7534060879324399856.post-11915285120957662702012-03-28T14:18:09.985-07:002012-03-28T14:18:09.985-07:00Hey Greg -- Interesting idea.

Looking at the Toshiba specs for the two side-by-side:<br />http://www.toshiba-europe.com/bv/computers/products/notebooks/t1000xe/product.shtm<br />...and...<br />http://www.toshiba-europe.com/bv/computers/products/notebooks/t1000/product.shtm<br />...they're actually pretty different products, despite the similar model numbers.<br /><br />However, all the ROM-DOS systems I've toyed with have two chips for bios, and two for ROM-DOS. The BIOS takes care of most of the hardware-specific differences and the ROM-DOS won't vary much from system to system. The ROM-DOS chips should be labeled.<br /><br />Honestly, I don't know enough about the workings of ROM-DOS to guess whether it would work or not. If you want to give it a crack, I'd at least look up the chip model numbers to make sure they're pin compatible. If so, you're at least unlikely to destroy anything by trying.AUTUINhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11713793126615904139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7534060879324399856.post-80520243585618538302012-03-25T17:27:10.035-07:002012-03-25T17:27:10.035-07:00I am playing with my T1000 right now....it still w...I am playing with my T1000 right now....it still works fine!<br />I wonder if you have the ability to recognize which chip has the DOS2.2 on it? I also have a (dead) T1000XE whose DOS chip is a newer version (3.3) Wonder if the T1000 would benefit from a newer DOS chip? Ever tried something like this?<br />Greg<br />Hillsboro, ORK7YDLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05205200662367044935noreply@blogger.com
