Hi All;
I'm trying to get into the BIOS without any success. According to an HP “Read-This-First!”, publication 746074-B21, I must connect the monitor to the VGA display port on the back panel.
Unfortunately, I don't have a VGA display port on my back panel – I have two serial ports connectors...
I've found the VGA 16-pin motherboard connector and figure that I need to connect a VGA ribbon cable to it to get BIOS POST screen.
The standard motherboard ribbon cable (16-pin to 15-pin VGA port) won't fit. The 16-pin motherboard side of this cable I need a either a laptop, thin client, or HP propriety cable to fit the 18mm by 5mm motherboard connector.
So, can anyone tell where to get these cables, or what they are called so I can do a search, or the HP part number so I can order it from HP?
Any assistance would be appreciated;
Thanks, Norm
