Someone had altered a ton of settings on my computer a few months back... now its becoming a major issue.
My BIOS isn't saving any settings...
all it does when I go through F10 is give me a black screen and a cute little graphic in the corner. I've tried everything I can think of, short of reseting to factory defaults, flashing it, upgrading and reformating my computer.
All of which I dont' know how to do.
I don't have any money to replace parts, nor a way to get it...
help?
*Windows XP media center edition*
I'd give more details if I knew them...

Replace the battery on the mobo. After the battery has been removed for a while it will reset the BIOS.

Do you still able to boot into Window?? You can try reset the Bios to its default setting to see if it works. Your pc/motherboard manual will tell you how. Usually you have to take out the battery or something like that. If nothing work you may need to call the motherboard manufacturer. You can also download the latest Bios,put it in a floppy and reflash the bios.

Open up the tower and remove the flat cell battery from the motherboard for 15 minutes and then replace it. The bios will revert to the default settings.
