[H] Dell boot up problem

2006-06-20 Thread Thane Sherrington
When a Dell is booting up, and that bar is going across the screen 
during POST, is there a way to find out what test is actually running 
in the background?  I have a machine where the bar goes halfway 
across the the screen and then reboots.  Is there a way for me to see 
the actual test readouts?

IIRC, you might be able to hit escape key during it, another one might 
be tab.


Can you enter the so called bios (dell really does not have anything 
that compaires to real motherboar's config options, of course).   What 
about F12 on boot up?

Also, if you can find it, in many BIOSes, there is a setting to turn the
banner off (the Dell screen in your case).  This lets you see what is
happening during startup.

I can't get into the BIOS - it reboots prior to going in.

So could I create a few private password protected channels that may never 
be used but might need to be used at any time? I'm guessing that as little 
as 4 up to 12 users for up to 4 hours if it was needed.

Likewise. Well I have a Ventrilo server you can use in a pinch. Has

Ventrilo  Teamspeak as long as the codec is upgraded to the best.
