KEYBOARD AND TRACKPOINT III: The keyboard has the familiar layout of a ThinkPad with a function key capability that allows you to quickly access system functions such as power management control. The keyboard tilts to a comfortable angle for typing when the system is opened, and there is a palm-rest area. If desired, you can adjust the keyboard to have no tilt. The keyboard lifts up allowing access to the diskette drive (FDD) bay, HDD bay, CD-ROM, and battery for quick upgrades or battery changes in the ThinkPad UltraBay. The TrackPoint III has accurate pointing capability, and the "drag-and-drop" function of the click buttons is helpful. You can lock and hold the buttons in without continuously pushing on them.

PROCESSOR: This ThinkPad 760XL model has a 166MHz Pentium processor with L2 cache and MMX technology.

MEMORY: The ThinkPad 760XL systems are designed to use non-parity, 144-pin, 64-bit EDO SO DIMM memory. 32MB of system memory (RAM) is standard and can be expanded up to 104MB. (Refer to the 760XD/XL User's Guide for more information.)

PCI BUS: The PCI bus supports 32-bit transfers for faster performance.

PCMCIA: The Type III slot can accommodate either two Type I, two Type II, or one Type III PC card or the new PCMCIA CardBus(4) devices.

(4) Presently available in DOS, Windows 3.1, and Windows 95.

STORAGE: The customer-installable hard drive is 5.1GB standard. Optional 2.1GB, 1.08GB, and 1.2GB, HDDs are available. The drive is easily removed by lifting up the keyboard. A 1.44MB FDD comes standard. The ThinkPad UltraBay, also standard with the system, is an intelligent bay that switches its pinout signals to allow the installation of an
FDD, second battery (Li-Ion or NiMH), HDD, or CD-ROM in what would normally be just the FDD bay. The installation of a second HDD requires the ThinkPad Second HDD Adapter optional feature.

AUDIO -- SUPPORTS SOUND BLASTER PRO APPLICATIONS: The system is equipped with jacks for external stereo speakers or headphone and external microphone. A separate slide-volume control is located to the rear of the keyboard on the system.

VIDEO: The ThinkPad 760XL systems have PCI local bus support providing exceptional video performance.

INFRARED: The system has IR transceivers in front and back for wireless file and data transfer and printing. The ThinkPad 760XL is designed for compliance with the Infrared Data Association (IrDA) IR data link specification Version 1.0. The system supports three modes of operation:

-- Audio record or playback
-- Video record or playback
-- Playback of MPEG file, AVI file, video CD, CD-i
-- Active communications (PCMCIA modem) in OS/2 application may hang
-- DOS games

OTHER LIMITATIONS
- Due to the way Windows 95 handles docking and un-docking, it is recommended that the user boot a system un-docked before hot/warm docking or hot/warm un-docking.

- Remote IPL is not supported with ISA Ethernet Adapter 10 base 5/T (35G2799).

- When using "Async/SDLC ISA Adapter" with PC5250+3270 Version 4.1 on Windows 3.1, if the I-frame length is set to 2057, it causes unexpected disconnection of the 3270 session.

- When an external VGA (640 x 480) CRT is attached, the display setting in the ThinkPad setup features must be set to LCD or CRT, but not to both.

- A video capture adapter that requires VGA pass-through (video pass through, VESA bus) is not supported.

- When SelectaDock Model I is being used with a SCSI driver installed, suspend/resume function and warm/hot docking are not supported. The exception is that Windows 95 supports warm/hot docking even when SCSI driver is installed.

- Simultaneous use of IR and other timing-critical or computation-intensive applications, such as communications and multimedia, is not recommended.

- ESS audio device driver is not CID installable.

PCMCIA LIMITATIONS
- IBM ATA flash memory and Intel flash memory cards are not supported in Windows 95 OSR2.

- IN OS/2, the Xircom Ethernet + 28.8kbps modem is not supported.
- The ATA PCMCIA card is not supported when using Microsoft Windows NT.

- PC card point enablers may write directly to the hardware, bypassing Socket and Card Services. Writing directly to the hardware may cause problems that cannot be anticipated. Also, point enablers may interfere with client device drivers that do communicate with Socket and Card Services. Additional customer testing in their specific environments is recommended.

- When installing two Type II PCMCIA communications cards in the PCMCIA slot, there may be some cable interference that allows only one card to be used.

- Before removing storage PCMCIA PC cards, such as hard disk, flash memory, or SRAM, the computer must be turned off

PCMCIA CARDBUS SUPPORT LIMITATIONS
- These systems support CardBus(1) PC cards that draw a maximum of 2.64 watts (0.8 A at 3.3 V DC).

NOTE: (1) Presently available in DOS 6.0 or later, Windows 3.1, and Windows 95.

WINDOWS 3.11 OR DOS:
- CardBus PC Cards, PCMCIA 2.0 or 2.1 cards are supported in the system and docking stations.

WINDOWS 95 (MAY BE PRELOADED ON YOUR SYSTEM):
- PCMCIA 2.0 or 2.1 cards are supported in the system and docking stations.

- One CardBus PC Card may be used in either system slot. Simultaneous use of two CardBus PC Cards is not supported.

- if a CardBus card is being used, no other PCMCIA card may be hot plugged.

- CardBus PC Cards are not supported in any docking station.

- A newly inserted CardBus PC Card may not be recognized correctly by Windows 95 (Windows 95 may mistake it for previously installed CardBus PC card). If this happens, do the following:

- Open My Computer, Control Panel, and then System folder.
- Click on the Device Manager Tab

- Remove it
- Restart the system

WINDOWS NT OR OS/2
- PCMCIA 2.0 or 2.1 cards are supported in the system and docking stations.
- CardBus PC Cards are not supported in the system or any docking station.

OTHER TIPS AND HINTS
- To support suspend/resume using Dock II, the SCSI IRQ should be set manually, by using the SCSI option ROM utility, so that it does not conflict with other device resources.

- To install OS/2 (OS/2 for Windows or OS/2 Warp) on the system from CD-ROM versions, the external FDD enclosure (66G3618) is required.

- When an internal CD-ROM drive is used in the system and the use of the diskette drive is also desired, the external FDD enclosure option (66G3618) must be used.

- Video performance will be reduced when operating under the 64K or 16M color mode.

- Continuous use of the HDD or CD-ROM drive, such as reading long video files, will impact battery life. In the ThinkPad 760XDTOP, the use of the enhanced video function will also impact battery life.
