[LUNI] Compaq without a hard drive

[James Velguth]

Hi All
    My Delema...
Environment:
    I have acquired a Compaq Deskpro PII series 6333, without a hard 
drive.  It will boot from the CD drive but I want to put a hard drive in 
it.  It will recognize the hard drive if I plug it into where the CD 
drive it but I cannot configure the hard drive properly...

Problem:
    When I hit F10 for setup the video scrunches itself into the top 
1/5th of the screen.  The screen is totally unintelligible and I cannot 
change any settings.

What I have been told:
    I have been told that this may be an early enough box that the cmos 
settings program may be on the hard drive instead of in the cmos but I 
have no hard drive.  I have searched the Compaq website and cannot find 
any evidence to support this theory.  The box is Deskpro series 6333.

Current Status:
    I am kinda stuck at this point, I have no boat so right now this box 
is totally useless.  I do want to put it to good use, slow maybe but 
good enough for poor folk to learn on.

I Would Like:
    I need advice to get around the scrunched up setup screen.

Thanks in advance for any help.

James
