Old Jan 10th, 2005, 11:44 AM        BIOS doesn't find HD, and computer keeps locking up.
I've had trouble with BIOS not finding my HD ever since I installed it. About one third of the time it does, the other times I have to go into the BIOS and search it up again. Then it usually forgets the next time I restart. I'm pretty sure it's not a battery issue, as it started when I put this HD in and never happened with the old one. I'm also relatively sure it's not a jumper issue.

Another problem came along when I got internet access the other day. About once an hour the computer freezes. Kinda. It doesn't really lock up, it just won't start any new programs or close the ones that are open. I can't load the task manager either, and when I press the shutdown or restart buttons nothing happens. It usually happens when I start up a new program. I have run a virus check as well as Adaware and Spybot.

Anybody? Chimp?
