173464 2003-09-07 05:47:00 there should be a helpfile on the website when u locate the bios upgrade download.

www.ibm.com
clik something like download or support and use the search engine to locate ur machine type - ur machine model # is under the machine next to the serial number. Its not called 600E but like 2662-XXXX etc etc...

have a charged battery and read the helpfile to prepare it ....

173465 2003-09-07 06:45:00 Umm if you just want to get into it for configuration purposes...

Try taping Delete, or F2 during startup (straight after it's turned on) those are the two gold standards for getting into the BIOS

173466 2003-09-07 06:56:00 Thank guys. The IBM site you mentioned Nomad had the answer. I had to hold down the F1 key while turning on the power rather than tapping it as I was doing.
