Hi Randy: I would dearly love to go into my bios and check for any
descrepencies that may be there however, you'll have to understand that I
cannot even get to a post beep to enter my bios screen. How would I do that.
Everyone tells me to look at my bios when I can't even get that far along.
Got any more ideas?  Thanks  Edwin Bogert
