Hi,
Sorry to report no success, we tried a new firmware
but were unable to have the keyboard recognized.
Yours,
Steffen

Hi,
I do not know anything about Compaq PersonalWorkstation 500, but we had a
similar problem with our ES40 when delivered with a standard keyboard. The
answer in our case was to change the country code at the SRM prompt. (If
there is an SRM on the Compaq PersonalWorkstation 500 !).
Mit freundlichen Grüßen
Shaun Racine
