None of them boot (not even the MS-DOS floppy boot disc). I've tried a bunch of older operating systems, including Windows XP SP2, Windows 98, and some old floppies for DOS. I'm not really worried about the data that's on it I just want to install XP or something (yes my disc is bootable and everything).
Is anyone familiar with this model or lineup of laptops? It was decent for it's time I believe so I'd still like to get it up and running just for fun. I'm completely lost here and I have no idea what I can do at this point. The driver enables the features and functions of these graphics chips. There lies the problem: The CD drive opens and closes properly and the lights flash but it doesn't actually do anything come the time it should ask to boot to CD (if you've ever installed XP on a DVD/CD). : Rage Mobility Driver for HP Compaq Armada e500 This package contains the Microsoft Windows XP video driver for Rage Mobility graphics chips in the listed notebook models. I recently dug it up and I want to install XP or something along those lines on it or at least get it to boot. It started getting blue screen errors about some hive file error or something along those lines so I forgot about it for a while. It came with Windows 98 but it has since been upgraded to Windows 2000 Professional about a decade ago. I know it's old but I would still like to salvage it. So I have an old laptop that has been owned forever pretty much.
