Chilll Posted July 1, 2005 Posted July 1, 2005 For some reason whenI press the reset switch the computer does not reset.What happens s the DVD/rw rom led blinks on and off then the bottom cd-rom led go's on and off.Then they both alternately blink on and off..Meanwhile the computer dosent reset.Thanks in advance..Chilll :cool: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prostock62 Posted July 1, 2005 Posted July 1, 2005 Chilll go into your bios and click on integrated peripherals then when open scroll down to onboard serial port1-Disable it,then right under that IRDA Select-Disable that also and one more scroll down to onboard Parallel Port-Disable that also.Boot back up and it will work.This seams to be a problem for some with the reset.If your using the searial & parallel ports try just disableing IRDA Select that might do it also,if not disable the other 2.

Chilll Posted July 2, 2005 Posted July 2, 2005 I was hesitant about disabling the parallel port due to my printer is on it but did it anyway.Just as I suspected my printer didnt work.I re-enabled the parallel port printer works and computer now resets.As you can tell I just had to edit this message.I couldnt get into Bios set up with the serial disabled.The only thing I disabled was the IRDA .......It seems to be working now......Thank you.CHilll Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
