hi tom
from memory, i think it's ctrl-alt-esc. hold down ctrl-alt and keep
hitting esc while power up - after memory count of course. however you
could always hold down the space bar while powering up and hope to get a
key stick error and then it will throw up the hit blahblah to go into
setup.
also try ctrl-alt-f10 or f12. also alt-f10 maybe.
as you can see, it's a long time since i used to set them up too.
