Actually, I've opted to not use the SmartStart CD that came with my 
5000, since it's rather outdated anyhow. You can go to Compaq's website 
and download the following items which will allow you to configure your 
system and do everything SmartStart will do, unless I forgot 
something...

Here's the link to the guy's website that I got the information from:

Hope that helps!
