hmmm... it was disabled in the bios. i wouldn't like to guess what the
actual effect of that is! this bios is a bit weird, i must say. i've
looked on the compaq (digital) website for an upgrade, but there's nothing
there. it's an old system now! maybe i'll phone the compaq service centre
here and ask them if they've got one.
