The password for the BIOS is 'lambkeoghs'.
There are headers for hard disk and floppy.
There is a PCI and ISA slot in them.
If you boot ms-dos (in preparation for loading windows or something), you need to load ansi.sys because the display is not right. If you load Linux in text mode, the display works (for me).

This BIOS Password also works with Boundless' Capio II. I would be willing to bet that it would work with other Capio series products as well...
To Kent - Many thanks for posting this! I have been in touch with many people trying to find the BIOS PW for the Capio, and no one could (or would) give it to me. I really appreciate it!!

How do I get into the Bios on the Virgin's Boundless? Everytime I try (Ctrl + Alt + Dlt) or just (Dlt) is usually just restarts.

Some notes:

Based on a TC325, but AFAIK identical except that the 325 has a card with a DiskOnChip in it. while the TC200 only
has 3.8MB onboard flash:

- The system has a very limited BIOS
- The network interface takes some hacking, but works - i can supply the details
- The VGA is VESA 1.2 and hence does not run X under X 4.0

I have some of the TC325 boxes, my advice is :

Look for other hardware..

OK, some redeeming features:

- connectors for ISA and PCI, Floppy and IDE, and boots from IDE if a disk connected
- accepts up to 64MB standard EDO 72-pins RAM
- can be set up as a nice print server _if_ you can get the required software in the 3.7MB on-board flash
- can be set up as a nice DOS Sound box with a cheap but good ISA sound card, I have one with a
SB AWE 64 Gold doing very nice things...
