Thanks for confirming,

Hello guys, you are helping us a lot with your knowledge!! - keep doin' that.

@AHMED HOSSAM: I have used your BIOS for my ACER Travlemate 240 - works fine!
Only 1 thing: I am installing a new Samsung 160 GB HDD (PATA) and the poor laptop refuses to recognise it..
Is it the BIOS? Does it need to be further modified, or is it something else?

Thanks in advance!

Try disabling SATA in BIOS and try different HDD settings till it works .

Thnx again

Works fine, thanks for the effort.
Travelmate 240 with 2GB of DDR RAM, Seagate 80GB IDE, Mobile Pentium 4 3,06Ghz SL726.
Could it be possible if any of the modders adds to the Intel Advanced Menu the SpeedStep Configuration, Enabled or Disabled?

Thanks in advance.
