Yeah, I still have the laptop (I'm a bit collector of PC and other scrap and maybe I'll open a museum in future :)
I powered it after 12 years since last run and CMOS battery was dead so 1st I had to figure HDD geometry to setup HDD correctly and boot. Then I found that floppy drive got some problems as spindle motor makes unhealthy loud sound when floppy inserted and of course got read error. So I have to run serial terminal and old good Xmodem file transfer protocol. HimemX 3.35 and DOS Navigator is running without problems :) BTW HWiNFO 6.0.5 is running there too (prev. versions had problem with too low memory :)

DOS gives me freedom to unlimited HW access.
