   some reason, I cannot boot into the internal hard drive at all because I do   
   not know what key to push to bypass the floppy drive. I am still very novice   
   at this, plus the fact is    
   I do not have an owner's manual for this computer. Can someone give me some   
   tips on how to perform this action?

   or not. We will find out.   
    Thanks.

   I bet the nodded ROMs are keeping it from recognizing the hard drive.  I hope   
   you can get ROM versions that were originally in the machine.  Keep us posted   
   because I'm curious.
