Hi and thank you.
My System:
Pentium III 500 MHz, 320 MB of RAM, 64 MB ALL-IN-WONDER RADEON 7500, 40 GB hard drive, Win XP Pro.
My BIOS Info according to http://www.esupport.com/biosagent/:
Program: Unicore BIOS Agent Version 1.9
BIOS Date: 01/21/00
BIOS Type: American Megatrends
BIOS ID: 53-0121-009999-00101111-071595-CAMINO
Chipset: Intel 2501 rev 3
Superio: Winbond 627F/HF rev 3 found at port 2Eh
My Chipset according to Intel Chipset Identification Utility:
Detected Chipset: Intel(R) 820 chipset
Memory controller Hub: 82820
I/O Controller Hub: 82801AA(ICH)
THE PROBLEM:
When I boot the computer and the "Press Del to enter BIOS" page comes out, I press the delete key (even tried F1 and F2) that but the screen goes black and the computer shuts down. However, if I just let it boot, the computer runs just fine. I first noticed that problem few months ago when I run accross a file that would supposedly upgrade my BIOS. Without really checking it out, I excecuted it, and the problem I described took place for the first time. It never bother me until now that I was attempting to install a 'slave' hard drive. I was not able to go into the BIOS and searched for an upgrade on driverguide.com, intel.com, but I was not successful at solving the problem or really knowing waht I am looking for. Is there a way to fix this or to roll-over to the previous driver somehow. I have backed up all my drivers now with the DriverGuide Toolkit.
Thank you so much, I really appreciate your time and effort.
