I recycle older computers computer to lower income
people at little or no cost. I recently inherited an
older CTX machine, which the BIOS seems to damaged or
the load had been botched by the previous owner.

It has the following symptoms:
   During boot, BIOS checksum error appears.
   Does not allow access to CMOS settings.
   System does not boot off bootable floppy but
continually as for one

Is there any way to fix the BIOS or should I just
chalk this one for parts?
