Pls Help--Need to access the BIOS of a Compaq Presario CDS 860
I was given an old Compaq Presario CDS 860 and can't figure out how to
access the BIOS. I tried F5, F8, and F10. I pressed the function key during bootup, but still got no BIOS screen. I tried each of the three keys mentioned at least three times. Any ideas? Does this machine even have an accessible BIOS? I know there are several jumper switches on the MoBo to control onboard video, processor type, enabling onboard sound , etc. (The machine boots up just fine with Windows 95, although I may decide to load Linux onto it.) Thanks. |
