Thanks for all the info, again ! I now dont buy the batteries to rebuilt the accu.

Does anybody know what the difrences are between an CF-M34 Mk1 with a 300Mhz celeron and a CF-M34 with a 400Mhz celeron ? Does the 400mhz machine has a better graphic chip, or are there more difrences ?

I am not sure about the MK1 M34 but the CF-17 I have doesn't have a usb port on the machine and the Mk2 M34 I have does have usb port as the later models do.

Minor update, concerning difrences between the Cf-M34 mk1 (Celeron 300Mhz) and the mk2 (Celeron 400Mhz)

videocard = Neomagic 2.5MB vs Lynx 4EM+ (4mb)
CPU = Celeron 300Mhz vs Celeron 400Mhz with SSE
mini-pci = mk1 doesnt have a mini-PCI holder / mk2 does have one mini-pci holder. The mini-pci holder can be exchanged from a mk2 to an mk1.

Minor update 2: concerning installing an OS onto a CF-m34
After you have a working OS, you can use Symantec Ghost (from the Hirens Boot CD) to make a ghost image.. The re-install of a Ghost image only takes 4 minutes for a 6.5 harddrive, instead of 40 mins during the install method i described earlier in this topic.

3) the CF-M34 400Mhz uses a Toshiba LTM08C343P 8.4" TFT PANEL (also used by the CF-48)

Rock on, we will see about adding this to the guide. You can post it if you want, or I can add it up top.
