1. DDz Quorum Friar Posted September 30, 2006 1. DDz Quorum Share Posted September 30, 2006 I am trying to help a friend who bought a recon laptop off ebay. After not having it very long the thing will not boot. he haas shown it to another contact who thinks that the bios is corrupted. How do i go about correcting the bios to make it boot correctly. Any advise / pointers very welcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blairgowrie Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 If it won't boot he will likely have to clear CMOS which is usually easy to do. Did he get a manual and a CD with the laptop? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBloke Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 Do you have a make/model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will need model number and BIOS version required (you will have to email that to them) and they will provide you with a new CMOS chip, if soldered in then whole laptop will have to be sent.
