Most likely you need to get hold of a copy of the "Comaq SmartStart" CDs |
| 2 |
for this machine to set it up to boot from an IDE drive, this will also |
| 3 |
contain the Compaq Array Controller software which will enable you to |
| 4 |
set up the 'BIOS' on the smart controller card to tun the array in the |
| 5 |
way which you want to. |
| 6 |
Try the Compaq website and see if you can find something there. |
