HP Omnibook 430 / 530 System Rom Image

[Bill (Smithville NJ)]

Manuel,

Congratulations on your OB530. It's a great little machine.

Christopher Erickson used to host a web site that had a lot of files for the Omnibook series. http://www.data-plumber.com/.

I see that it's still there, but I couldn't get to the files section. Looks like it might be either corrupted or the link has been grabbed and redirected.

But the files can still be found on the Internet Wayback Machine. Just search for
http://www.data-plumber.com/

Not sure if all copies on the Wayback Machine included the Fires Links, but I selected Feb 12, 2006 and the files section is there and you can download them. You'll probably want to grab the

OB530-Win31-the-works.zip

I think this file includes all the special OB files you'll need to install WIN31.

This should get you going.
