Thanks Eric, I’m in the process of downloading that info now.   Jesse E. Gardner, MCP P.O.

On those models the "Compaq Partition " was that F10 ran to configure the BIOS. What you will need to do is download the appropriate Setup and Diagnostics Disks from Compaq and these can then be booted from the diskettes that are created and will run the Setup program and allow BIOS setup. Running setup might even get rid of the Error 1791 message. Eric Wittenberg, MCSE CNA ASE Technical Systems Analyst 3D Computer Services Ltd.

I also get a disk error (1791) that allows me to boot up, but only after hitting any key.  Once I'm logged on everything appears to fine.  I'm still in the process of checking it out though. If this note has evoked a flashback from anyone, your response would be very much appreciated. Sincerely, Jesse E. Gardner, MCP P.O.

I have set up a totally new domain to correct the mistakes in our current one. I have run DCPromo installed AD, set up the DNS, set the Security Policies and so on. My question is if I go ahead and put this on my network, it shouldn't cause any conflicts with my existing NT boxes should it since it is a totally new domain?
