Dell rhymes with hell!! Options

[Panzer]

Just wanted to say sorry about the =COM= match. On a lighter note I got back from vacation yesterday to have my cable connection out until today. But before it went back up, I had the bright idea to install the intake fan on my computer. When it was all said & done, I restarted only to get a message saying my boot device can not be found. So, I am now on my other computer typing this. If you guys don't see me for a while that is why; on the other hand if you do see me, take it easy on me..this computer is so old it was actually used for dial up @ one time

I am waiting for a new hard drive from dell in the meantime, so hopefully talk to you guys later. Also, if anyone knows of any way I might be able to recover some of data I would appreciate any help.

Also, kipp your still gay & no one enjoys any of your B.S. so maybe you should take your lame crap to a forum down to your intelligence level. Maybe Bah, =7=, or {BOM}

I thought it was funny when you said they didnt speak english well. Its well known that dells phone support hardly speak english. Have you tried clearing CMOS? Normally its done by changing the CMOS pins 1/2 to 2/3 for about three seconds or removing the battery and putting it back in. You would have to locate your manual for the location of the jumper. Also, there is a trick that works with most motherboards and thats holding down the insert key while booting. It forces optimized defaults to load in CMOS while booting.

I was trying to be polite..sort of, it sounded like I dialed Pakistan. No, truth of the matter is, is that rather then waste my vacation doing that crap, I brought it in to get taken care of..one way or another. I didn't lknow you could do that through CMOS, I will have to remember that.
