What can I say it worked! I followed your instructions to a "T" and the CD ROM appeared. Two thumbs up for that fix!

My daughter has somehow managed to lose her CD-ROM in Windows 98. It was working ok a couple of days ago but now when she tries to access a CD it tells her the drive isn't accessible. I've looked at the startup and the BIOS detects the CD-ROM correctly. When I check W98 it says there isn't a...

If you have a large enough hard drive, install Win 98 into a different directory. For example: C:\N\WINDOWS\..unless you're just looking for something to do. Afterward you can deleted Windows ME and reclaim the added space with Partition Magic 4 and up.

My video card was replaced with a new ATI Radeon 9200, 8X AGP,128 DDR video card. The bios menu screens which are being displayed bounce severely until windows loads. This happens whether I'm restarting windows or starting from a cold boot. The description would be similar to hitting a...

I apologized for not getting back sooner but I didnt get a notice that someone responded. My motherboard accepts 2X/4X/ and 8X AGP. I didn't know that you could adjust them back if needed. The best way to describe what it does is to say that the menu screens bounce as their being loaded from...

I recently installed a Radeon 9200 SE video card which I used to replace a NVidia MX 4400 video card. By making this change went from a 4X AGP to a 8AGP. My motherboard supports it. Now during the boot cycle the menu jumps or has hiccups during that process. Otherwise everything else works...

Thanks for the quick response. I was able to reset the BIOS by unplugging the power cord, removing the CMOS battery, waiting 1/2 hour then reversing the steps. With exception of changing a few settings everything works fine.

How can I reset a BIOS that I have been locked out of because of a misplaced password. I have a Asus A7V8X-X Motherboard, with a AMD XP 2100 CPU. How can I reset the Bios to bypass the password requirement?

Reboot using your windows boot disk to load generic drivers for you keyboard, mouse, etc. In DOS type "sys C" at the A>prompt and wait for "system transfered" to appear then restart.

Hey Guys, Sorry I took so long to respond but I was caught in a hurricane and left in the dark for the last five days. Thanks for the response. I did not realize that a SCSI card was needed to run this hard drive. I don't have a spare PCI slot available. Besides I prefer to keep it simple...
