It's has 256megs or ram and I been switching driffter video cards. and 80gig hard drive.
. I'm having trouble booting up system. I do have xp on it. I think it was bad choice lol. I see hp logo but it won't boot into windows. I allready swtich a new mother board replacement that came with it and that didn't fix it. Do you think it could be hard drive? Is there a bios for it? It's computer at our ROOC Workshop at our class room. errr hehe I want put 98se if I ever get into doss for it from boot up floopy I can't even get into bios.

A buddy of mine is having the same problem with his. I have the machine and it won't go past the blue screen. I took out the hard drive and slaved it onto another machine and it worked fine. Any ideas on what it could be?
