Resetting Bios without Video

[fickena]

I recently upgraded a from a PCI to a AGP card. When I installed it, nothing came up, so I changed a setting in the BIOS to boot from AGP, now no video cards work and I can't see the BIOS to reset it, any ideas?

PS I have tried removing the battery and there isn't a CMOS jumper.

thanks in advance.

Have you flashed your BIOS with the newest version?

I am unable to do this as I can not see the screen.

****.. that sucks.. ummmm.. When you removed the battery did you also pull the power cord out of the back of the comp?

Yep, totally unplugged everything for about 10hrs. Not sure what to do now, may have to try and find an ISA video card to boot from, apparently they work with everything.

Nightmare! Just found out another one of my PC's motherboards was fried, crappy day.

Yes that sucks.. I have those days all the time..

Are you sure the AGP card is seated correctly? Sometimes they can be tricky to install, especially the first time. Make sure you push it in nice and hard
