    I have a Dell Latitude Xpi CD, pentium 166. It came with Win95. I got this computer used (and free), but without software. I formatted and installed Win98. I have some problems with this computer, and have been trying to get into the BIOS, but pressing delete, F1, or F10 at bootup just doesn't do it. Is there another keystroke that somebody knows of?:confused:

    First, in case you don't have them:

    Specifications: Latitude XPi CD

    Now, various documents. Hopefully, you'll find the needed info here.

    System Setup Options in MS-DOS: Latitude XPi CD

    From that page, accessing the BIOS:
    Dell Latitude XPi Contents

    Tech Notes

    System Setup Options, Windows

    From that page, accessing the BIOS:


    Upgrading the BIOS: Dell Latitude XPi and XPi CD Systems Microsoft Windows 98 Upgrade

    Documentation: Latitude XPi CD


    That page gives you a location for downloading PDF and HLP files for the XPi CD.

    Good luck!

    Thanks! I'm sure I'll find those links helpful. I've found some of them on my own as well, but not all of them. I had already figured out how to enter the system setup, but it doesn't have what I'm looking for.
    By the way, where is Latveria?
