And to everyone else reading this thread, here is the updated Yahoo! link to the screen images I posted above in my initial message. (It...

What Happened?

Hi there,

I just found this site today, joined up, and started reviewing the relevant postings.

I'm just curious here--what happened to your system? Did you manage to get your BIOS working again, and how?

Thanks very much,
