Compaq boot without a keyboard (Headless)

HowTo Boot up a headless Compaq (perhaps other systems) without getting the keyboard message requiring that you hit F1
Got the required info from here: http://www.computing.net/hardware/wwwboard/forum/39905.html

Turns out Compaq released a small patch to fix this. The alternative is to select “Network Server” mode, but I have never seem this.

The file is at ftp://ftp.compaq.com/pub/softpaq/sp0501-1000/sp0667.zip and copied to ftp://chowder.nmhschool.org/pub/apps/compaq/SP0667.EXE
