Go to your motherboard manufacturer site, and download latest bios + flasher program. Follow the instructions, reset the computer and pray :)

the part that Happy is most serious about Wind is.... PRAY!

Flashing the BIOS is a last resort (your only option it seems in this case) for anyone not 100% savvy with PC build and repair..

Follow the instructions to the letter... read them twice before you start anything... read them again and make sure you understand the process, if there is anything you dont get... post here and we can advise... but whatever you do dont screw this up! ;)

well what I was thinking about was, how bad is it, is one thing doing this when a bios is operational, but if the bios is all to badly messed up I wouldent tink this possble without some special gear.

Well if you can boot up the OS, this is the way to do it...

Depends OFC if it is BIOS itself that is fucked up, or you only messed up BIOS settings... in that case open the computer, find the batery on your motherboard, remove it, go on a beer, place it back inside, and turn on the power. With some luck your false settings were reset :)

also there might be jumpers that need to be moved in order to reset bios... depends on your make and model of mobo.

no my son i dont hate anybody
Nothing in the world can take the place of persistance. Talent will not: nothing more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not: unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not: the world is full of educated derelicts.
Persistance and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan "press on" has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.......
