    Howdy! Ben, Holger and All,

    I found a Service Manual for the AcerNote Light 370P notebook at the
    tim.id.au website in His Notebook pages a few days ago and have been
    reading over the dis-assembly instructions to get the BIOS/CMOS battery replaced in it.

    Then I will try resetting the BIOS settings I have written down and try
    using the Acer Library Restore CD to put everything needed on the HDD
    You (Ben) sent me.

    I will be cautions about Static Electricity.
    I also will take snapshots of each step I take during the dis-assembly.

    Stay Tuned for further updates.

    Howdy! Ben,

    I've given up on updating the Acer Windows 95 notebook.

    This week I will mail the HDD back with a check.
    Thanks for sending it to Me.
