leungda Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 unplug all the HDD cable and try it again. If the computer can go... it means your HDD have problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChunkDog Posted October 30, 2004 Share Posted October 30, 2004 You need to find the "Clear CMOS" jumper on the motherboard. Or you could look for the setting in the BIOS for "Reset ESOD data" or "Reset Configuration Data", it's usually under the section in the BIOS that has the option "Plug-n-Play OS Installed=Yes or No" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
underworld Posted October 30, 2004 Share Posted October 30, 2004 before ya clear CMOS try entering the bios then enter the screen where all your drives is listed, clock settings etc. then hit F3 to re-detect the drives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bullet Posted November 13, 2004 Share Posted November 13, 2004 Before I went crazy with clearing BIOS and unplugging everything. I would hold down the F8 key while it is starting to boot then select boot into safe mode. Once in safe mode go to device manager and look for conflicts. If there are no conflicts then, from Device Manager, remove any and all devices that are in a PCI slot on your MoBo. Restart, and your system should re-detect all of the devices and work fine.

Astalavista Posted November 13, 2004 Share Posted November 13, 2004 bullet i don't think he can't get that far since his hard drives are not being detected anymore. so i don't think that would help him.i think u got confused when he said bootscreen. I think what he meansis the Bios BootScreen and not Windows BootScreen.cypher2000you best bet is to hit delete or f1 depending on your bios typefind where it say to reset bios to default.saveand reboot.now if that does not workunplug all the ribbons to the hard drives, reconnect make sure they are all connected properly.rebootif that does not workpull out the memory RAM plug it in to another slot.rebootif that does not workpull out all your PCI CARDSreseat them making sure they all plugged in well.rebootif that does not work you go to the final solutionfind his motherboard manual, look for bios jumpers.if he does not have a manual. u will hv to go to the net and lookfor the diagram of the motherboard.follow the instructions on the manual on how to RESET the bios.if that does not work... send it to greenland joke.
