A friend had a computer that had windows 98se on it, and he changed monitors. Now
it does not start in windows what can I do? I tried putting the cd into the cd rom
and it says invalid system disk. Now I have to use a public computer to ask for help
anyone know what to do? I am not familiar with computers. I do not know computer
terms the bios says award modular bios v 4.51pc. I need to make sure the settings
are correct, how can I tell to make sure he did not try to change things in the bios?
Can anyone tell me what each of the items in the bios should be set at. It says Award
Bios on the main screen. I have checked all the cables nothing is loose. I figure
maybe not knowing what he was doing he changed something in the bios. On the left
side of the screen when I start computer and hit delete to enter set up the bios
shows this list.
Standard cms setting
Bios feature setup
Chipset features setup
Pnp/pci configuration
Load bios defaults
Load setup defaults
Right side of screen shows
Integrated peripherals
Supervisor password
User password
Ide had auto detection
Hd low level format
Save and exit setup
Exit without saving
How can I tell if he changed anything does any one have a picture of each of the
things on list so I can highlight them and see if anything was changed?
