Hello, I recently bought an old PC 300PL - Type 6892, but I have a problem entering the BIOS!
On startup I press F1 but all I get is Danish (maybe) captions and nothing else?
I've been trying to reset the BIOS from the J9 jumper but without much success!
Attaching photos.
Can anyone help?

This one has TPM secured any changes especially processor, requires firmware update via disk every time.

You heard right, needs the firmware like you do to update a bios. Get it and do it.

Back then had one by ibm based on PIII and it did that same thing due to TPM blocking cpu changes. Had to do it every time.

The problem is that the machine does not want to boot from FDD?
I found the latest bios for her but she can't put it in!?
