| 556555 | 2007-06-06 01:51:00 | See if there's an A20 option in the BIOS, if there is enable it. Find out what the model is and dl the manual. |

| 556556 | 2007-06-06 03:05:00 | I am not getting any bios display or able to get into bios. | NZHawk (4093) | ||
| 556557 | 2007-06-06 03:10:00 | Whats the model of the mobo then?? Try removing the battery and put it back in. Have u got the manual? If u have, have a look in it and see if there's a jumper on the mobo that'll enable this A20. And make sure the ATX 12v plug/adapter is still plugged in. On the mobo. |

| 556558 | 2007-06-06 03:14:00 | Whats the model of the mobo then?? Foxconn 915P7AC-8EKRS Looking at the manual: there is no jumper setting on the motherboard for A20, only available through bios. Removing the battery and put it back in worked ---- I can get into the bios. And confirming the ATX 12v plug/adapter is plugged in on the mobo. A20 Options in bios are: (Default: Fast) This option is used to set up the A20 signal control necessary for access to the 1MB memory. The available setting values are: Normal and Fast. Which do you recommend? |

| 556559 | 2007-06-06 03:29:00 | At least we know there's an option for A20. Enable it see if that fixes it. Could have been the battery then... If changing it to normal or fast, makes no diff and it still works/boots. |

| 556560 | 2007-06-06 03:35:00 | A20 is enable by default to Fast. Computer continues to boot successfully! I will put in a new battery. Thank you for your help. |

| 556561 | 2007-06-06 03:49:00 | Good to hear its back to normal ! Dont forget to reconfigure the BIOS since u removed the battery. |
