I have a 5wv235 (serial # 8047FPP410C9 )Presario with the original
10GB Hard Drive. I updated recently to windows XP- SP1 ( the original
operating system was windows 2000 or ME not sure). Never upgraded the
BIOS because apparently no-one is available for windows XP. Current
Bios date: 10/12/00. I would like to add another Hard Drive.
1- What is the biggest capacity Hard Disk I can put in this computer?
Which disks should I avoid?
2- Are there any software updates I must do before adding that new
Hard Disk?
The Compaq/HP site has none BIOS upgrade to windows XP, but I found
BIOS upgrades to windows ME and 2000 that are more recent than the
one I have. Should I upgrade using these?
Thaks in advance
