    BIOS ROM checksum error

    Detecting floppy drive A media...

    INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER

    And I cannot get past this for nothing. I cleared CMOS, tried to reflash BIOS but it refuses to recogize any of my bootdisks. From what I have found out it looks like maybe a corrupted BIOS. Also, it will not let me in to BIOS either.

    Also replaced the CMOS battery, still no go.

    Any clues???
