I want to write down the BIOS info on my old Compaq just in case I need to
manually enter it if it some day forgets it. F10 got me to the right menu
but I couldn't view any of the floppy or hard disk information. Highlighting
the correct item and hitting "Enter" did nothing.
Any ideas?
Thanks

You can backup the contents of your CMOS RAM to a file.

Here is one such utility:
