straight into the bios setup and stays there.....what to do?
Posted: Fri Jul 22, 2005 4:07 amHello folks, I have been building and repairing PC’s for about two years now and have had pretty good success. Unfortunately for my latest costumer (who happens to be by best friend) I have ran across something I cant figure out. 
The problem:
As soon as he boots up his PC it goes straight into the bios setup and stays there.
Even after I exit the bios it goes right back. I even changed the boot to start with the CD drive and tried to run a recover disk but it went straight to the bios again.
I got lucky both times I worked on it, after fooling around with it for about an hour each time it re-booted into Windows but after I left both times and after he shut it down and started it back up it starts back over again with the bios thing again.
Im stumped, have any of you guys ever seen anything like that? If so could you please help me figure it out? Thanks __TrueD
