 I have a Tech-Built system.--AMD.K6.. -8 gigs - 64 Ram - Using a Canon
BJC-610 printer.  I have Win-95 upgraded.  I use primarily Netscape but
I also have IE.
I am getting CMOS checksum errors - I/O port 378.
Techie says I have two printer ports, one "on the board" and another he
put in to make my printer work with this CPU back in 1997.  Now I am
wondering why after many months of things being ok what might be causing
the problem.
The OnBoard Parallel Port keeps resetting itself to:  "378/IRQ7" and I
must keep changing it to "Disable" in CMOS when I start up.
 A while ago I  downloaded InternetExplorer 4.01 which caused a Win-95
upgrade and I also had to upgrade the printer files from Canon's site.
At this point I am wondering what in the system that would cause this
"CMOS-Checksum" error problem that seems to appear the next time I boot
up after I have used the printer.
Any Suggestions?
