I don't have an answer, but I have a similar problem. Mine isn't consistent though; it only sometimes happens, I haven't noticed whether there's a correlation with mains power, and it seems to be about twice normal speed instead of 3 times. Mine is also a Toshiba - a Tecra 8100. Any tips appreciated. Richard -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
