System getting 1762 Error

[Ayman Altounji]

I got a problem, I am fixing this machine for a friend and the it is coming up with an error - 1762-Unsupported Protected Mode Disk Operation. Says a DOS driver is needed, but lookin on compaqs site I can not find a driver for DOS for the proliant 1500 anywhere, anyone know what this is all about... I am trying to fix his WIn95 install, and he has changed the autoexec and config files, along with deleting files so I can't find out where or what driver was supposed to be being loaded. I also noticed that the machine is supposed to be a pentium 133 but it boots as a 100, am I to assume that someone has messed with some MB jumper settings? I did check the chip to make sure it wasn't replaced, but the 133 is there.

Thanks for any replies.

The serial number provided does show this to be a 100mhz. It could be showing 100mhz at post due to the processor board. It is a different part number for the 100 vs the 133. Can I have that part number please.
For the error you will need SP1146. Please follow this link:

I tried those files, but they keep giving me an incorrect dos version, and the file
SCSIC710.SYS seems to be corrupt every time I copy it, tried multiple disks and
multiple computers with the same results.

Hello Ken,
Did you run System Configuration Utility on the Server?? If not then please download SP19619. You will be given two options: One to upgrade System partition and other run System configuration. Please pick the second choice. This will reset the Hardware in your system and resources are assigned properly.

Regards,
