Need help on my laptop bios
hello there
Hello There I have a laptop named Patriot I had to buy a new hard drive for it and when i turned it on it goes through some system stuff like memory and cdrom etc.(it lists it). It tells me on that same screen to press f2 to enter setup so i do, and I could sit there for days without it ever doing anything. Everything sounds like it is running such as hard drive and cdrom. Do i need to find some bios for my mother board or do i need to trash the laptop. thanks chris sk8sno32@yahoo.com

I don't know anything about Patriot, but those are the same symptoms I had after replacing a faulty hard drive in an older Compaq desktop machine. Found out later that Compaq placed part of BIOS on the hard drive itself(!).
