When the TP is off, press F1 and power up while keeping F1 depressed. Release F1 only after you see the bios screen. All IBM's have the type-model number somewhere, usually on the same label that has a small barcode. Look for something like 8640-2d0, 9545-cex or 2640-tfw then go to the IBM support site. There is a small search box that you type in the number, you'll find all kinds of goodies there including the full Hardware Maintenance Manuals and bios upgrades. -- Yours truly: Dr. Fred M'Bogo Doctor of Witchcraft -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
