Abit Bios Update Problem
The other day I added another 200gb sata drive and then decided to update the bios on my Abit UL8 mb. Since then I can't get the pc to boot. I've reset CMOS, removed the battery and reset CMOS, one memory stick or both memory sticks, safe settings, optimal settings and rolled back the bios from 12 to 10. The symptoms are either a check sum error on CMOS or upon discovery of the IDE drives the systems hangs. My system has Abit UL8 mb, 2gb Patriot dual channel DDR400 ram, 2 200gb Maxtor sata drives and a PNY 6600 video card. -- Jon Stock |

had a flock of green cheek conures squawk out: The other day I added another 200gb sata drive and then decided to update the bios on my Abit UL8 mb. Since then I can't get the pc to boot.

Replace the motherboard battery, clear cmos, load defaults, make sure the ports the drives are on are enabled and, if necessary, select the boot drive, and save the settings. Stephen -- |
