559514	2007-06-15 06:58:00	Hello, Every time I boot up I get this message : Verifying DMI pool data, K8 NPT Data Change.........Update New Data to DMI... Does any body knows what this means or fix it?? Message shows for about 10 seconds then windows boots. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks	Rayman (12367)

I was wanting to look at the registry and ran a file called reg.reg by mistake. I don't know if that is the problem or something else, but that's the only thing I know I did differently. Also: on mine, Windows Vista will not boot and I cannot "repair" from the upgrade CD, it won't boot either.	jawstcoc (12419)
559517	2007-06-16 20:18:00	jawstcoc, you need to give more info on the PC, is it set to boot from CD before the HDD in the BIOS? What actually happens when you try to boot normally? NOTE: a PM is a Private Message :) Also, it might be better if you start your own thread	The_End_Of_Reality (334)
559518	2007-06-16 22:53:00	Hello, Every time I boot up I get this message : Verifying DMI pool data, K8 NPT Data Change.........Update New Data to DMI... I also get this message when booting my Gigabyte/AMD X2 motherboard. It started after the BIOS was upgraded, but I wonder why the "Update New Data to DMI" has to happen at every boot. More or less ignore the message these days, but I wonder...	rumpty (2863)
559519	2007-06-16 23:58:00	"you need to give more info on the PC, is it set to boot from CD before the HDD in the BIOS? What actually happens when you try to boot normally?" PC info: It is an ECS GeForce6100SM-M motherboard, 160Gb HD, 1Gb Ram, Vista Basic. Bios is now set to boot CD first. It was HD first I changed that after the DMI message. That message still appears before it looks for the CD, but the CD I have says it is Vista upgrade, that may be why it doesn't boot. I don't know. What I would like to know is how to fix it. My computer has that message, then goes into a Windows Boot Manager window. I can choose an operating system (Vista is the only choice in the menu, though) Or I can do a memory diagnostic. If I choose the OS, it gives another window that says, "Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. To fix this problem: 1. Insert your Windows Installation disk and restart your computer. 2. Choose your language setting, and then click "next" 3. Click "Repair your computer." Well, I've done that and as I said, the windows CD is an upgrade and does not appear to auto boot. I have not tried my XP disk though I'm thinking about it, yet I'm hoping not to lose what I've done on this computer with Word and other programs. So... I don't know what else to tell you, but if anyone has any answers, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks.	jawstcoc (12419)
559520	2007-06-17 04:43:00	Well, here's the latest in my struggle. I was able to use the Vista Home Basic CD which apparently is actually a DVD, because that's where I was able to boot up with it. I used it to "repair" following the instructions, I was required to go back to a restore point, so it worked. However, that message still comes up at the beginning, but at least I'm able to get into Windows on this computer (YEAH!) I'll look back to see what anyone says about that message, though, so please respond if you have any info that can be a public, not a private, message.	jawstcoc (12419)
559521	2007-06-17 05:34:00	... Yes... Vista is a DVD... So you can get into the PC, but since it is a BIOS issue, what you done in the registry (you should NEVER go into it if you don't know what you are doing) will not have any effect on the BIOS, the BIOS error is shown before the PC even thinks about which OS to boot into... Is there any real issue with the message?	The_End_Of_Reality (334)
559522	2007-06-17 05:59:00	It is an ECS motherboard, Theres your problem.	pctek (84)
559523	2007-06-18 11:10:00	Have a look at this link www.diy-street.com I tryed a couple of the things suggested, but still the message appears. e.g remove battery for 24 hours. I've even disconnected all unused devices and it still shows up, so I don't really know what to try next. Still it doesn't seem to stop windows from loading, so maybe i'll just have to live with it for now.	Rayman (12367)
