LD Pro

It took me quite some time to get to this point, i.e. posting this message. Can some one advise me whether my LD Pro can be used as a normal computer?

I bought a NetServer LD Pro back in the mid 90s for my office. It serves us well. Now I would like to turn it into a normal computer for my 5 year old son to play his educational VCDs or DVDs. I used DOS to reformat the hard disk and try to install Win98 but I am having problems after completing the reformat. Any idea how to fix it?

Appreciate some tips on how to fix it.

Re: LD Pro

HP did not test Win '98 on the Netservers, but hopefully other customers can help you with this. I can point you to the available documentation & software for this LD Pro.

Are you familiar with accessing the BIOS setup? This is done with a software program called the "ECU". Create the bootable ECU diskette from the above web page.

Re: LD Pro
