AcerPower 333s
 

Perhaps you can help me. I have an AcerPower 333s. Originally it was a 386
upgradeable to 486, and I upgraded it. I am trying to fit it a 19 Gig HD,
and I need to enter setup. I have tried most of the usual but I haven't been
lucky. So it would be a great help if someone told me how to enter setup.
Manuals and info on this old machine cannot be found anymore. Thanks in
advance.

You wont be able to add a hard disk that big to that machine.

If theres a BETA BIOS avaliable, you may be able to get to 8GB; but thats
not too likely.

The 386's i've used wouldnt address anything bigger than 500MB.

I have been able to set the disk with a Dynamic Drive Overlay. I have 4
operating systems now.
