Thanks for the hint, Victor,
that is exactly my big problem with this Newt: as soon as I try to install
this latest system patch you mention, the Newt is going crazy, it randomly
stops working (hangs/freezes totally)in the first procedure already where
you personalize the Newt.
I am pretty sure that this is a hardware problem - that the memory in this
particular (system-patch) area is corrupt or something like that.
I also get regularly strange error messages during operations like opening
the Extras or changing the view in Extras.
So I try to find a working 2100 logic board to replace it with mine.
Cheers
Johannes
