the new clock chip back in. Unless you'd know the part number of said
low-profile socket? ;)
Dunno about part numbers - I just had one in my stash.
I found the setup disk, but I still haven't
figured out - does this
model have the Compaq setup partition on the drive? If so, how do I set
that up?
Hmm... dunno about a partion (for this model - later models _do_ have
one), but ISTR finding the relevant setup disks online to do it from
floppy after a google search.
I'm also trying to figure out how a 2" IDE
cable can go south. It
did, though. I have 2 drives that the setup can see fine with another
cable, but the short one is toes-up.
Odd... well... those cables probably weren't designed for lots of
fiddling/remounting, etc.
