Hi, I am wanting to know if there is a debug code to enter the CMOS set up program on a LPX or LPV. I have a customer who has disabled the CMOS Somehow. I have tried to obtain a copy of the setup program, but all so far have been a demo version only, that prevents you from writing the changes. Thanks in Advance Courtney Brunt MCS Engineer, New Zealand [Posted by WWW Notes gateway]

re: NETRIX::"[email protected]" Not exactly what you asked for, but try the following: - hit <F1> during POST, right after you see the system type display. I don't remember if this is true of the particular model, but many BIOSes have the security feature that one may enable to NOT show the prompt to hit <F1> to enter CMOS setup mode. I am very certain <F1> is used on the LPX/LPV. The more recent DIGITAL PCs use <F2>. Cheers, /Bill | |||||

Bill, Thanks for your reply, however, not only has the prompt to enter setup been disabled, but it seems the seup program has been disbaled as well. I have seen debug code used before to enter the setup in circumstances before, and thought somebody might know. Cheers Courtney [Posted by WWW Notes gateway] | |||||

Have you tried to use some other program such as QAplus diag to change
setup?
