Title: AIC Location Settings/Bricked BIOS
Post by: davelkan on November 06, 2015, 02:10:53 PM

Hey I foolishly changed my AIC location settings on my BIOS and now my computer will not display on a monitor. I have no idea the extent of the damage I have done as I can get no output.

Does anyone have any idea how I can fix this? the computer has no OS (i was trying t get it to acknowledge the harddrive at the time).

What is the make and model of the computer?
Have you tried doing a reset by removing the CMOS battery?

After about 30 seconds, put it back in and start the computer.
You will need to fix the data and time. :)
