|  Proliant 3000 Ok I got a free Compaq Proliant 3000 from my school and it keeps asking me for the ROMpaq diskette. The school doesn't seem to have the disk so does anyone know where I could possibly find a free download for it? The server is so old it obviously isn't worth taking to a shop if I can't find the diskette anywhere. Thanks.

| Re: Proliant 3000 After Press the power button and the jet engine starts up it asks for the ROMpaq diskette. Pictures, lemme get those later cause I have to go to school now. Sorry if I answered wrong, I have never used a local server so I basically am clueless. The only reason I have it is because it was free :P CPU: Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.00GHz (HTT) Board: Dell Dimension 9100 (not sure what it uses) Memory: 510MB RAM Video Card: RADEON X600 256MB HyperMemory HDD: 160 GB Case: Stock Power Supply: Dell Cooling: 4 Fans Operating System: Windows XP SP2 | ||||||||||||||

 | Re: Proliant 3000 just go get ubuntu and completely forget about the joke rompaqs... it is a type of install process that requires to boot from floppies... you may be able to install win2000 or ubuntu to get around it.  Thanks HL and Corsair! My opinions are my own and not representative of this site or its members.  | ||||||||||||||

 | Re: Proliant 3000 Options ROMPaq for RA4X00-attached Drives Check the Compaq site, they seem to have a variety of drivers and firmware for the Proliant 3000 INTEL QX9650 ASUS Maximus Extreme 4GB DDR3-1600 Sapphire HD 3870X2 Danger Den Torture Rack (Custom W/C) Seagate 750GB HDD BFG ES 800W PSU | ||||||||||||||

| Re: Proliant 3000 Yay, will it recognize it on a cd or does it need to be a floppy? I have never been able to find a floppy over 2mb.
