18959	2001-09-17 05:15:00	I had been in the BIOS set-up and went to answer the phone and my 2 year old mashed the keyboard - GGRRRRRR!! When I boot my machine now, PII with Win98, the RAM counts thru 3 times. Unbearable with 256MB of RAM. I know I can bypass this by pressing the ESC key but often switch it on and forget - also the wife is on my case. Please HELP!! P.S Maybe nothing to do with BIOS settings but it seems too much of a coincidence.	Guest (0)
