Hello again....
Well I am not sure if anybody has pointed this one out but I figured since this works on regular ThinkPads it "may" work on our PC110's...And it does...
When you power up & hold down F1 it gets you into BIOS Setup (just like Thinkpads)... Well, when in the main setup screen, hit <CTRL>+<A> , that's The "CTRL" key plus the letter "A" key... A pleasant "dong" will sound & 2 new options will appear at the top of the screen.. One is "LOOP" this allows you to put your unit thru a continuos loop (aka-Burn In) system test, allowing yo uto choose which options to test... The other seems like an advanced setup for PCMCIA slots 1 & 2, a 2nd Floppy config & a couple other things which I have not played with yet...
So if someone feels like tinkering a bit , maybe they can provide a little more info what these other configs do...

Enjoy.
