A7V8X-X with Win98 Restart got to Bios Setup
Hi,
I have A7V8X-X (Bios version 1006) with AMD XP 2500+ (Barton). I'm dual booting with Mandrake Linux and Win98. Runs very stable. But... Whenever I'm in Win98 and choose Start-Shutdown and choose Restart, as Win98 restarts after POST it goes into BIOS Setup. (Not all the time though, but about 50% of the time). I have to choose Exit and Exit with Saving configuration from the Bios Setup for Win98 to boot. Anybody know the cause of this? (Send mail to Asus Support 2 days ago, not heard from them until now) Thanks in advance. |

Whenever I changed something in Win98 SE (installing new driver or new software) the PC went into BIOS Setup during the next restart. In my case updating to BIOS version 1006 solved the problem. So I guess it is a BIOS problem. On the Asus Website I found a Beta of version 1007. Maybe that will work for you. Greetings, Detlef |
