Default compaq Desktop pc info required

The computer would appear to be a DeskPro ENS model. The C600, 10e, and 64
refer to the configuration as originally shipped with Celeron 600, 10GB disk
drive and 64MB of memory.

The system should handle up to 512MB of memory. For sure, the fastest processor
would be a fairly rare 766MHz Celeron. Depending on the exact model, faster
CPUs are possible. I have successfully put 20GB drives into DeskPros from this
era, and I think a 40GB would work.

Can you describe the dimensions of computer? Is the CD-ROM drive a typical
desktop type or a smallish one often used in laptops? Knowing a little more
about the computer will help.

You may be able to find service information still available on the HP web site.

i have aquired (legally) a desktop pc from a college due to upgrades. It has
a celeron 600mhz processor and a 10 gig hd. I can not find any model numbers
as such on the case but it does have a sticker with the following:
ENS/C600/10e/8/64

I assume that c600 is the model number?
My question is, what is the biggest hard disk this system will support, the
fastest processor and the max ram ( has 3 slots and system shows as a total
of 192 so prob got 3 sticks of 64) it will support? had a look on compaq
site but can find nothing using the ENS tag from above...
Also does anyone have a pdf manual for the hardware?
