Frank, Since I just modded my compaq notebook (successfully) i'll give it a try for you over the next few days. FYI, this was posted in the wrong section. There's a sticky for asking about bios mods. Also FYI, as I recently did searching of my own here on this board you'll be quite surprised that a lot of hp/compaq notebooks use the same bios. I'll see if I can dig one up for you.
