Ive found my problems but i dont know where to go..

Lately ive been experiencing my BIos and Windows failing and figured that it was some bad drivers installed but i need some references that ll help for me to do tis right{Please let them be free} here some of them listed in this link:http://driveragent.com/driveragent_results.php?hwid=7ec7b119dd4ed6337b108584aa262fab&n=823066 ..Any way to go from here?If so email me at mchl_carrillo@yahoo.com or pm or at least reply ..Thank you im out .

 

That link lists some updated drivers but that doesn't mean your existing drivers are causing a problem. It may only mean they want to sell you something. What specific problems are you having and what specific hardware do you have? Without that info I don't know how anyone would be able to help you.

 

hmm..let me see..My Windows fails to start and ambios fails to detect the Primary Ide Master and Slave it really gets on my nerves,Like something is preventing it from starting and no this isnt a virus .dont know i just want to get rid of this thing.

I understand where ure coming from but i seriously think its one of the device drivers having a conflictwith my system.

 

Too much information is better than not enough.

This could be a dead MB Battery, bad HD Ribbon, bad HD, a corrupt HD, incorrectly set BIOS and a number of other things.

Describe your HardWare. Brand and model of MB. I'll guess HD is IDE not SATA.

 

Sorry, Iwas typing the last post while you were posting the specs.

 

Hold up MB? i know my HD is IDE

 

No prob.

 

This doesnt sound like a device driver because the BIOS doesn't recognise the HD. If the BIOS doesn't see it, it can't boot it.

Does the HD spin, can you hear it?

If your BIOS says there is no drive installes but it actually tries to start booting(the WinXP startup screen) then you may have a SCSI HD.

The simplest thing to try first would be to enter the BIOS and try to set the defaults and try a reboot.

MB means Mother Board

 

Been there done that it works but temporarily.I can turn off anyway and the problem reoccurs, its the same shit everyday,man i need a result .

 

You say it works if you set the defaults and then the next day it doesnt. That would almost certainly be a dead MotherBoard CMOS battery. The most common battery is in a bracket on the MB and is silver and about the size of a US Quater.

 

And how would i get this resolved?

 

If this is a desktop machine it should be pretty easy to remove the cover, locate the battery and change it. Hopefully it's not soldered on the MB, most are not.
If its a laptop I would suggest taking it to someone who is qualified to work on it.

 

Believe me its a desktop.So can i do thhis now or what?

 

Go for it. You should be able to get the battery at RadioShack, Best Buy, Circuit City, etc.
Take the old one with.

 

ok cool
