[y2ka]

this is a notebook. I dont know how to take out the video card. But I did remove out the hard driver.network card...
Is there anyone can tell me how can I reset the bios? is there any jumper same as pc motherboard? do I have to change the whole motherboard?

Hi,

Depending on your OS, go here in the following link and download the BIOS.
flash your bios and you should be able to get in.

I didn't understand, have you been able to boot off the floppy disk, if the BIOS download file is a Zip file then you need to extract the file to A:\ but you need to copy the system files to A:\ prior to extracting the BIOS file.

Go to any Win98 computer and then Start>Run>type command and hit Enter, Insert the floppy disk that contains the BIOS download file and then at the command prompt type:

sys c: a:

It'll transfer system files and floppy disk will be bootable! However, if it didn't work then the only way will be to clear the CMOS, you might need to call HP or chat live with HP support since this is a Notebook!

Hope this help and consider assigning points for people who invest their time helping you!

Go to www.bootdisk.com to make a Win98 bootdisk...........

OK a Notebook, can you find out if a CMOS battery on the motherboard controls the BOIS.

That's pull that battery out of the motherboard for a day and put it back in, turn on - see what happens.
