After searching the net in a fruitless search... Can anyone tell me how to access the BIOS in the above machine, there seems no way to do this! All I want to do is put a new HDD in it and I cannot seem to get the machine to see the drive, or boot from CDROM. I was told that in the initial boot sequence a Compaq logo should flash up, it doesn't! I can get the machine to boot to DOS from a 98 floppy no problem but FDISK cannot see the HDD at all and only sees the virtual C drive. HELP, I want my laptop back! K.
