[dba-Tech] Compaq server question

I assume you've tried del and esc.  It is often one of those two.  Also
sometimes you have to tap it every half second until the time that it looks
for the keystroke.

Subject: [dba-Tech] Compaq server question

I have an ancient Compaq server in the basement, and I've forgotten the
admin password. I would simply re-install the server software, but the
machine won't boot from the CD, and I have no idea what the keystroke is to
invoke the BIOS instead of the OS. 

Any suggestions, folks?

TIA,
Arthur
