    Remove all power to the PC...and remove the CMOS battery....press power button 4-5 times.

    Wait 5 minutes and re-assemble and power up.

      I would check the Owner's Manual then...
      Since we don't know what PC this actually is...

      Don't know what "changed the boot thing to cmos" means. EXACTLY what did you do and how did you do it?
