Its an Award bios and the computer is a packard bell. The processor is a celeron. Got the comp in Dec 1999. Could someone help? This is doin my head in!!! Ohh sorry the new HDD is a maxtor fireball 3. :evil:

Please be more specific as to which particular PB model you have, and which BIOS release is in your system.
