I have an old DTK-based '286 system that boots up with an "INVALID
CONFIGURATION - PLEASE RUN SETUP" type error.

CTRL-ALT-ESC and CTRL-ALT-S do not take me to the CMOS setup screen.
The computer does not give a "Hit this key to run SETUP" message upon
startup.  I think I need a piece of software to run the CMOS setup, or
I'm not hitting the right keys.


The correct software or the right key combination would be appreciated.
The system is based upon a DTK '286-10 motherboard.

Thanks,
