Re: old motherbroad always enter bios setup when boot

Yes, all are default. It worked fine for all these years and now have this
problem. THe symptom looks like as if the bios always goes back to its
default values and unable to detect the cpu speed. Any idea? Is aging of the
EPROM the cause (since I've already replaced the battery with a new one)? Is
it possible to copy the bios and burn into a new EPROM? How to do it?

I have a Asus P3V4X which is about 6 years old. Everytime boot up, it
display the bios setup screen with date 1/1/2000 and time 0:0:0 and cpu
speed "manual". I changed the battery on the broad but didn't help. What
problem cause this symptom? and how to fix it?




did you set defaults or select the proper voltages and freq for the memory
and CPU?
