Computer keeps booting to BIOS
Hello,
For some reason my computer keeps booting to the BIOS setup menu whenever I try to start it.
I originally had 2 sticks of 256mb DDR and 1 stick of 512mb DDR400 although I had the two 256mb sticks in channel a slot 0 and channel b slot 0 and the 512mb in channel b slot1. This worked fine for months but the other day the computer wouldnt boot and gave me an error message saying that I should have the same type of ram in both slots to run as dual channel (or something like that) So I pulled out the 512mb stick and reboot but no luck. (Despite the bios detecting the memory change) Then I pulled out the 2x256mb sticks and put in the 512mb stick instead. It managed to boot once to XP but then on another reboot no luck. Now it just keeps booting to the BIOS setup no matter what I do.
I have reset the bios to defaults mnay times but still no luck. Any ideas as to what I can do to fix this?
TIA
