    I recently rebuilt one of my PC's in a new case but when it starts up it says "CMOS Checksum error - defaults loaded" I try to press F1 but the keyboard/s just don't seem to work. It can't be the battery because the motherboard is only a few years old. Any ideas?!?!

    well by pressing F1 are you trying to access the BIOS? If so try pressing the delete key or F8 and see if that helps, if not just try replacing the CMOS battery on the motherboard.
