Nope, Windows NT/9X runs fine :-(. I had this problem with a lot of Compaqs
(actualy all of the "new-model" EN en EP's that I have.) Note however: I bought
my last Compaq somewhere around June I think, so perhaps it has been solved
in newer models.
Note2: that Compaq I installed last week (running kernel 2.2.13) still runs fine
so I guess that solves it too.
