Presario 5441 by Kevin Childers
By default I have come to own a Presario 5441. I'm looking to set it up for the kids to use when they visit. It had a bunged up Windows XP Pro installation, so I formated and started over with Windows 2000. Looking to put it on a wireless home network. Specs: CPU: AMD K6-2 472 AFX RAM: 256...

Sorry, me again - beep warnings and BIOS stall on Deskpro EN by [email protected]
I'm hoping this is going to be simple because the machine is otherwise working fine with the exception of the floppy drive, but my Deskpro SFF 886 mhz seems to have some kind of problem which I'm hoping is not related to a dying battery. The first time I switch it on - to recap it's (at least...
