Some computer manufacturers use special diagnostic/setup partition or a floppy
disk to run setup.  I am afraid that your computer is one of those.  It would be
a good idea to find out who is the manufacturer of your mother board and BIOS
and research it further from there.

Here is the address and phone numbers of Mind Computer, but I am not sure that
it is the same company, and even if it is so, I seriously doubt they'll be able
to help you, but you can give it a try….

Mind Computer, 1745 Elice Avenue, Unit A,  Winnipeg, MB R3H 1A6
Ph: 204-786-7747  Fax: 204-786-4262
