I was trying to find the Belkin one I had attached to the M15 because I coudld attach only the keyboard connector and the trackpoint would work too. People found that strange so I wanted to post the model number, but now I'm wondering what I did with it or lost it somewhere. 
I used to keep another Belkin one in my laptop bag, but every time in through security I was afraid it was going to fall out because the flap on the bag would never velcro anymore. Maybe that's what happened and then I took the one of my M15 to use--and that's the model number I posted...I can't figure out what happened to it. I hate it when stuff like this goes missing--drives me nuts.

Gonna find that out soon. My father might have something that can read floppies
EDIT: Turns out it is just some IDP and system files. Also an .exe named UINSTALL and a zip with all the files except the uninstall exe.
Nothing that interesting.

Care to share the files? I didn't have a floppy with mine.

$IBMHIPD.IDP
$IBMHIPD.SYS
AODBHIPD.IDP
AODBHIPD.SYS
TP2DD.ZIP
UINSTALL.EXE
Those are all the files that were in the floppy. I don't think they will be of much use to you though.
$IBMHIPD.SYS
AODBHIPD.IDP

TP2DD.ZIP

Thank you so much! One set of files is the os/2 driver for the trackpoint and the other set is the driver for DOS. I still have some DOS systems, so this will come in very handy indeed! Thank you!Redmaus wrote: $IBMHIPD.IDP
