I have a thinkpad 755CE (16 meg; 540 meg) that I'm about to work over. It
currently has a boot mgr setup, with warp 3 FOR windows on HPFS or dos as
C; FAT D with all the win 3.1 stuff, and HPFS e.
I intend to blow away the dos partition, and the win 3.1 on D along with a
lot of the win applications. I will then format C:, maybe leave a maint
partition [I've never done one of them before] and install Warp Connect
>from CDROM. I have partition magic and a backpack PP CDROM, so this should
not be a big hassle. But there are aspects of my desktop that I would
like to preserve without having to reinstall a bunch of stuff - is there a
way to do this? [I have Unimaint, but its portable desktop backup/restore
didn't work for me between W3 connect and W4]. Does OD Pro have something
useful here?
I am also arming myself with all sorts of updated MWave and other drivers
>from the pc.ibm.com web site, and following the words of wisdom on the
warped thinkpad page (now at www.tpwarper.com although the old url -
www.warpedthinkpad.simplenet.com - resolves to the same IP address).
Any additional words of wisdom from the list?
