We would need some more information in order to help you. Try the app Hipster posted, and then post the details here so we can have a look.
 
what model of compaq? If you go to HP.com and click on drivers, then enter what model of computer you have it will give you all the updated drivers and bios versions available. (there is a spot for either hp or compaq)
 
ok this is wut came up from hipster's program...

BIOS Date: 12/03/01

See how you go looking at the links that have been posted. :) Take that info with you.
 
Make sure it is the right one. Don' think. :eek: Double check before using it.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
