Hi All,
I have the following wierd problem in my PC.
Machine Details:
IntelPentium 4 Processor
256MBRAM
OS-Windows Xp Home Edition
Award Bios
I will let you know more specific details if required( I dont remember them exactly right now)
Problem:
My keyboard and mouse gets stuck(the system as a whole hangs...nothing works hardware/software) all of a sudden when am working with the windows and am unable to do anything other than reboot the machine.Again it works fine for sometime and then this happens again. It works fine for about 30 mins
On one day I recieved a message when booting that "Warning:CPU Settings has been changed...."
So I tried doing the following.
1)Removed the CMOS(CR 2032 Maxell) and placed it again ( I read this somewhere online)
2)This time it said "CMOS checksum error".However in the BIOS I used "Load Failsafe defaults option".
But still the problem persists.
Shall I flash the bios and upgrade it.
Please let me know what I should do now?
Thanks,
Subanesh
