Getting windows on this thing! (sorry Linux)

Hello. I picked up my unit this evening and I am trying to get windows on it. I have only one snag. I cant get into the bios! Is the keyboard disabled? If anyone can help, I would greatly appreciate it.

thanks. I finally got it working under windows xp and am pleased. It needs a ram upgrade, but it really is doing a fine job as a web terminal as it is.

Just an update here on a windows instillation. I have win xp home with 196mb of ram. The system is hooked up to the net by a wireless network card (d-link). as far as a internet, email, and mp3 box goes, i dont think you can get more for your money for $100 (plus a ram upgrade). I would love to hear the uses other people have put theirs to.

The reason I bought mine is that my main PC is my htpc and is connected to my home theater system and needed a small inexpensive internet computer.

Well, my 900MHZ Server right now is loaded up with Windows 2000 Pro Sp3. Works like a charm. Simple workstation for my younger brother to use.

Come next week, Mandrake is going to be loaded and it will become my LAN UT2003 Server.
MUAHAHAHAHAHA
