Now, on an HP support list, someone left a message over the weekend that I should do a BIOS update... except all I can find is a DOS .exe to do it, *and* there's a comment about needing to install previous BIOS updates.... You don't happen to know if I do need to install the previous update? mark, looking into a freedos USB key solution....
You can boot from the Firmware Maintenance CD. It will auto-detect all the hardware firmwares and update them if needed... You just have to find the most recent CD that still supports your model (see in the release notes), since they gradually remove old hw to make some room for new ones...
