Mike Michel:
Just to let you know, I got into it, but still have a situation. I had to
disconnect my ps/2 mouse from the pc and it booted up and gave me the stock
logo and I hit delete and changed everything and saved it, let it boot and
date was fine. Shut it down, plugged the mouse in , no logo screen, loaded
with the wrong date. Go figure. That gives me an option to use a different
mouse. This one is other than factory cause that one quit working. Figure
ps/2 is a ps/2 not according to the bios. I will get another one and try,
but if I can't I will go with usb or an older serial connection, which is
fine. Let me know if youhave ever heard of this, thanks Brian
