Know that I'm kinda posting this in the wrong area but what the heck - there are more techy ppl here

Have a AMSTECH laptop and am thinking of getting into the BIOS - any suggestions? I think i tried hitting F1 - F12 and it doesn't seem to work. Searching on google doesn't seem to help as well..

Oh another thing - does anyone know how bad it is to have 300Mhz + 32 MB runnig Win XP? *Grinz... lazy to deal with WIn98...

TIA

I dont think its possible to run xp on 32mb of ram http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/home/evaluation/sysreqs.asp

Wrong forum, try tech support or general hardware.

Also, try delete, esc, and end. I think I have seen each of those used in various BIOSes.

300mhz + 32mb of RAM = NO WINXP....even if you could get it to run, you wouldn't want it.

Did you try the "DEL" key?

For the BIOS, try delete and esc.

It's not. The minimum is either 64 or 128Mb. I know W2K is 64.

I've run WinXP on 64mb with a relatively fast CPU (1.4 ghz) and it still sucked ass!!
