Hi aznsjater51!

Try resetting the BIOS. Please do the following:

• Turn off your computer
• Remove the power cord from the back of your computer
• Open the side panel
• Locate the CMOS battery (it's shiny stainless steel about the size of a nickel) and remove it
• Wait at LEAST 5 minutes
• Put the CMOS battery back in
• Re-attach the side panel
• Re-attach the power cord to the back of the computer
• Power on your computer

You will probably get a CMOS checksum error first time booting after doing this. Don't worry this is NORMAL. It only means that you need to set the date & time on your computer again. It should say to press one of the Function keys or DEL to enter SETUP. Do so and reset the correct date & time. Make sure you SAVE CHANGES before you exit setup.

Did you unplug the power cord from the back of the computer while the CMOS battery was out?
