From my earlier posts you will see I had probs with error messages in Event Viewer on start up , which an updated Bios has cured.The thing is now when I shut down and later start up pc I have to turn off and then on the power switch at the back of pc,where as before I just pushed power switch on front panel of pc,any comments.
Cheers.
Mick.
 
ACPI and/or APM services are installed during setup... It's my guess there's been a substantial change in that department with the new bios flash and the only cure may be a clean installation.
 
Dispondent

I have only XP upgrade,didn't think you can do clean install with it,I have been in touch with Abit tech and they advised me to discharge CMOS which I did but it made no difference,I am getting dispondent with this prob,wish I had never bothered with upgrade now.
Cheers,
Mick.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
