Applicable to: World-Wide
Below is a list of considerations when running Windows 98 on your IBM ThinkPad
(This applies to the following models: 3A0, 3AA, 3AC, 3AF, 3AH, 3AJ, 3AK, 3AP, 3AS, 3AT, 3AU, 3TJ, 4A0, 4AA, 4AC, 4AE, 4AF, 4AH, 4AJ, 4AK, 4AP, 4AS, 4AT, 4AU, 4TJ, 5A0, 5AA, 5AC, 5AF, 5AH, 5AJ, 5AK, 5AP, 5AS, 5AT, 5AU, 8A0, 8AA, 8AC, 8AF, 8AH, 8AJ, 8AK, 8AP, 8AS, 8AT, 8AU, CAA, CAB, CAC, CAD, CAE, CAF, CAG, CAH, CAJ, CBA, CBB, CBC, CBD, CBE, CBF, CBG, CBH, CBI, CBJ, CBK, CCA, CCB, CCC, CCD, CCE, CCF, CCG, CCH, CCI, CCJ, CCK)
- Studio Recording Session v.1.10.1 causes a General Protection Fault with the MIDI-Thru feature. Studio Recording Session v.1.10 and MIDI Express 3.01 do not experience this symptom. (95/98)
- Studio Recording Session v.1.10.1 takes a long time (over 2 minutes) to resume when the system is suspended while recording music from an external MIDI keyboard. Studio Recording Session v.1.10 and Cakewalk Express do not experience this symptom. (95/98)
- System hangs when only the Crystal ISA Codec is disabled in Device Manager. All the audio devices must be disabled at once through Device Manager. (98)
- A howling sound occurs when DVDExpress is enabled in Karaoke mode and attempting to use the internal microphone. To prevent this symptom from occurring, use an external microphone. (95/98)
- DVD movie is automatically rewound to the beginning when toggling the display between LCD or CRT, or when changing the screen expansion setting. To prevent this symptom from occurring, do not change the display settings during playback of a DVD movie. This is a certification requirement by Macrovision.
- PAL MPEG2 files become jerky when being played for the second time in auto-repeat mode. To prevent this symptom from occurring, do not use the auto-repeat mode. (95/98)
- DVDExpress gives the following error: "Error reading CD-ROM in Drive D: Please insert CD-ROM with serial number xxxx-xxx in Drive D: If the CD-ROM is still in the drive, it may require cleaning. Press Enter for OK or ESC to cancel" when the following operations listed below are performed. To recover from this symptom, just press Enter to continue:
- Playback a Video CD or Karaoke CD.
- Pause it.
- Suspend and then resume the system.
- The Autorun feature does not work (only the first time) when the DVDExpress application is launched. (98)
- System does not enter suspend mode when an external MIDI device is attached. To prevent this symptom from occurring, detach the external MIDI device.
- Mouse movement is not smooth in the DVDExpress application when LCD screen expansion is enabled.
- Black garbage appears on the desktop when changing the window size of PCOM v4.2.1. Download the latest video driver to correct this symptom.
