Re: XyW on a T43 with XP Pro

["Phillip Alder" phillipalder@xxxxxxxx]

I have a T43 ThinkPad running Windows XP Professional. I have tried
unsuccessfully to install XyWrite for Windows. (I used safe mode, as
required by TTG.)
I also tried copying all of my files from my old ThinkPad, where XyW runs
happily under XP Home Edition (as it does on my desktop).
A technician at IBM thinks that something on the laptop is conflicting with
XyW.
I realize that this is primarily a XyWrite for DOS forum, but if someone
could help me, I would be most grateful.

A bit liberal, yes. "Manet" is simply "remains."
And isn't it "vox audita"? Literally, The voice, heard, perishes;
the word, written, remains.

To take a slight liberty, and to turn it into the idiom it is, you
can add, I think, _once_ before "heard" and replace that semi-colon
with the conjunction, _but_. But then my Latin is almost all gone
now, and my dog-eared dictionary and primer don't have the lesson I
need. Titus Pullo where are you?
