A friend asked me to look over her father's old E-tower 466id that had not been used in a couple of years. Every time I try to shut it down, it reboots and I get this message: 105: CMOS Settings Wrong 107: Display Type Wrong Press F1 to Run SETUP Press F2 to load default values and continue or this one: 106 checksum error Press F1 to Run SETUP Press F2 to load default values and continue I have tried changing the battery, power supply, power button/cables, jumper settings, CMOS settings, and reformatting. I even tried a PCI video card and removed the modem. Nothing seems to work. Should I try updating the BIOS? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! |
