I bought one of these and the hard drive is failing. Sometimes it boots,
sometimes it doesn't.
If I can find the install cd and floppy, maybe I can get this working. Of
course then I'd need to find a cd-rom drive that works with the 16505.
Thanks,
Paul

I also have an HP 16505A for which I would like to find a copy of the
original software install CD. There is an update CD, but it is not a
complete OS install CD. If you have the original software install CD
you should be able to boot directly from that and reinstall the OS
without any floppy needed.
If someone happens to have the original software install CD it would
great if we could get copies.
An HP 16505A is really just a 712/60 running HP/UX 9 with a special
application which controls a 16500B/C through the SCSI port.
