Compaq Presario 5030
I have a Compaq Presario 5030, in which I have installed Windows XP Pro.
with no problems. What I am having a problem with is locating an update for the BIOS for this model. I've looked out on the HP website with no success. Could anyone please help me with this? Does anyone know where I might fine an update BIOS for this system? Thanks in advance for your help in this matter. |

Since there are no BIOS updates listed on the HP/Compaq website for the
5030, you can assume none exist. No drivers are listed for XP, either, only 98 and Me. If the PC is running XP OK, don't worry about updating. HH "William Tyler" wrote in message ...

It's just that the unit is old and Compaq / Hp isn't going to spend time or money on support on XP on an older machine. William if you want to be totally sure you can download BIOS AGENT and check to be sure. http://www.esupport.com/biosagent/ Given that XP is running fine I wouldn't worry about anything though.
