Need some ideas. I'm getting the error message at post of "checksum error-defaults loaded" and then "CMOS battery fail". Replaced battery, the system clock keeps time but I still get the error message. I've flashed the BIOS chip with the latest and used the switches to clear the CMOS and DMI pool but still have the error. Am I missing something or do I have a solder joint loose? Board going bad?
It is a BCM QS750 running a 650 slot A Athlon,128MB SDRAM, floppy and I have an ISA bus video card (ATI)in while I'm troubleshooting it. I've had a Matrox 450 dual head, Vortex PCI sound card and BTC 40X CDROM installed and running without any major problems. I'm just trying to figure out how to fix the error and be able to change BIOS settings.
BTW it is a used board and was like this when I started it. I've used it over a month but want to to finish it right. Thanks
