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.

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
