Working on the Portable
This portable is SLOW. Not just slightly slow, but right-click-wait-15-seconds-to-redraw-menu slow. It is painful to use. The hard drive clicks whenever the machine boots, and about 50% of the time it won’t even load Windows. It throws a hard drive and ethernet card error message (boot disk not found and PXE error on ethernet recheck…
