I was given an HP Pavilion 8565c and asked to look at it. The CPU fan was not working so I replaced it. Then I noticed the power supply wasn't working and replaced that. Now it posts but comes to " drive A error. System halted." By rights, if I could get to the bios and change the bootup order, It should start on drive D with a windows 98 startup disk. Yes, I'm skirting the CPU thing. I'm trying to save him that expense. Can anyone give me the hotkey for that computer?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: hotkey
Most HP PCs need the F10 key when you see the HP 'splash' to enter BIOS setup program.
Make a great day!

SolutionYou are thinking Compaq which uses F10. HP's use either F1 or F2. In this case it's F1 or at least that is what HP says at:

Tom,
Per HP:
"Entering the BIOS Setup utility
Sometimes it can be a little tricky to get into the BIOS Setup screen because it requires pressing a specific key at a specific time. If you fail to enter the Setup screen on your first try, repeat the following steps until you are successful:
Close all applications that are currently running and restart the computer by clicking Start, Shut Down, Restart the Computer, and then OK.
When the blue HP Logo screen appears, press the F1 key on the keyboard to enter the HP BIOS Setup menu.
NOTE: An alternate to the above steps, especially if the blue HP Logo screen disappears too quickly to enter BIOS, is to shut down (turn off) the computer. Wait 30 seconds, turn the power on and press F1 at the blue HP Logo screen. "
You may also be able to fix the error by pulling the RTC battery for about 5 minutes. That should cause it to set the BIOS settings to Default.

Re: hotkey
Ron, thanks for the correction. Are things returning to normal over there, after the hurricanes?
Make a great day!
