Bios Issues

[redukdaz]

Hey guys

Got my one yesterday in blue and it's gorgeous. First thing I did was whip out a usb cdrom and install XP

Last night I was fiddling with the bios and changing the boot device priorities, then once it rebooted it gets stuck on the bios (press F2 for setup or F12 for boot options) and won't budge, I've left it for 2 hours and still no joy.

This morning I've opened the bugger up and removed the bios battery - How long should I wait until I can pop it back in again?

Ta!

A few minutes should do the trick.

Thanks verbl

It's been half hour now, i'll give it a try

if that doesn't work does it sound like I need to take it back?

I've removed the battery and will wait for 12 hours, see how it goes :roll:
