Bios is broken

Matiaskristiansen · Nov 15, 2014

Ok so yesterday It worked perfectly fine but when I woke up this morning I tried to start the computer but no sign of power. So I cleaned my computer for dust with a compressed gas cleaner, then I tried to start it up then it says my BIOS is broken? It said it was trying to update it and as soon as it reached 100% it just turned black and begins to restart over and over again. The screen is still black and I cant see whats going on. So I turned it off and on again but It still restarts. Please help me, I dont know how to fix it :S

Thanks!

What type of pc/laptop do u have , model # if you have one, and what is the exact error message you are getting?

Matiaskristiansen · Nov 15, 2014

It said 'Corrupt BIOS' and something about we're trying to do a backup of it. I dont know exact what It said but It was something like that really close. Also my computer is built of parts Ive found on a place called 'komplett.no'. The parts are matching im pretty sure. I cant find the receipt.

So the BIOS somehow became corrupt, the PC is trying to restore the original but failing. Hmm, not something we want to see eh? If your BIOS has a problem, then you may need a new motherboard, or BIOS chip

Try clearing the CMOS, it's a little jumper on the motherboard. If yer not sure where that is, pull the battery out for 5 minutes, see if the system will boot. If so, put battery back, if not no foul. Sorry there's not a lot of options when it comes to BIOS errors I'm afraid. If you are able to see any 'hit del to enter setup' options, or similar options you 'may' be able to re-flash your BIOS, but if just boot to black screen, not much can be done at home, need a tech shop I'm afraid.

Okay, so I dont know if this is a good sign, but suddenly the dualBIOS screen popped up for like 5seconds then it restarted again.

And I'll try your suggestion! Thank you so much for replying so fast.

You've been to much help, thanks.
