Hi,

I have a 2100 4/275 which is seriously in need of upgrading from both a
hardware point of view (memory, disks and CPU) and an OS point of view. It
is currently running v4.0B Digital UNIX with rev 5.0 firmware. I want to
upgrade it to 4.0D to make it Y2K compatible, however, I have to know if it
is compatible with further firmware upgrades. Has anyone upgraded their
2100's successfully? I have already checked web sites and been in contact
with technical support at Compaq and they have not yet provided me with any
information that is really helpful. I am concerned because I also have a
1000A 5/400 with 4.0B and firmware rev 5.0 and I have not yet - despite
several attempts - been able to successfully upgrade it to 4.0D.

thanks, Gilllian
