Hmmm...If you have a printer that can handle either IBM Proprinter or Graphics emulation hooked up to LPT1:, the Print Screen function *should* work (at least it works on my collection of four systems, only two of which are similarly constructed). Assuming you have the "right" type of printer and it's hooked to LPT1:, if the Print Screen doesn't work while you're in the cmos setup, I'd guess your bios is indeed the limiting factor (Bad Bios! Bad BAD Bios!)... Cheers! /dave <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> <> Dave Tatosian tatosian@plough.enet.dec.com <> <> Digital Equipment Corp.
