Hi Art, I seem to remember some old Compaq's used f 10 and others used alt ctrl and esc. If that doesn't work try f2 and even f1 as well as what John suggested.

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?
