My computer wants to do a BIOS recovery and I have no idea why or how to fix it. Keeps searching for floppy but I do not have one. I do have an external floppy if i need it. Please help
What is the make and model of hte PC? Have you gone to the manufacturer's site to get the latest version of the BIOS and put it on a floppy in your external drive for the PC to recover it?
FYI restoring BIOS from the floppy can take a while, so don't be afraid if it looks like it's not doing anything. I used to do this many times a day at work, took us like 20 mins to flash the BIOS of the Asus server boards we used lol.
Is this before or after you wiped the BIOS via diskette?
Have you tried resetting your CMOS? HP's site should have some instructions on it if you don't know how, it's easy enough. Usually just pop the watch battery out and change a jumper for 20 secs then put everything back.
