Hi all Im still having problems with this Olivetti. Iv got the hard drive working, installed windows, surfed the net etc etc. Iv'e taken the computer back to its owner, plugged it in and its gone into manufacturing mode.!!!!
 
Did you flash the BIOS?
Flushing CMOS may help...but the problem might be the motherboard.
As I understand it, manufacturing mode is just the first step programing mode for programing a new bare motherboard with the very first code it ever runs. Once the board is programed i.e. flash bios it no longer needs
that mode.
Otherwise there seems to be a BIOS/motherboard problem.
