    Hello strangers!!! Been a little busy the past few months. I know yall have missed me.

    Why is it that on all the other computers I have had, or have there are so many different settings in the BIOS. ON my CF30 there is only the 1 page that really limits what you can set it up to do.

    Is there another F Key to enter into another section of the BIOS instead of F2?

    You should have a normal amount of tabs, not just one page

    Alex, I do have several pages, but I read about alot of systems that you can do alot of detailed adjustments. On my older HP laptop you are able to so much more than this one. I was just wondering of there was another section of the BIOS that I have not seen.

    Ha! I just murdered my Pavillion DV8000 because it kept failing, so now I'm using a cf29 till I get my DV6000 up and running..... I may just stick with the toughbook until I wanna play video games. It runs so much smoother.

    Uhuhuhuhuhu, Yes I did. I reloaded a fresh copy of XP onto my son's HP last night. Before I did it I went it the BIOS and it has about 20 more detailed selections you can make then the TB. You enter it a different way than just hitting the usual F10 to get into the BIOS. That is exactly what I wanted to know if the TB had.
