Computer has been running fine for weeks.
Today i went into bios and change my boot method because i wanted to boot from a different cd drive, saved settings and it reboot.
when it reboot it is just hanging at asus splash screen and doing nothing.
I reset bios via both battery and jumper methods and it gives me 2 choices, F1 to enter setup, and F2 to use default and continue.
If i use the F1 method i go into setup, and it does the same thing and hangs at splash screen
however if i use the F2 method it boots just fine with default settings and works great!! but if i shutdown or reboot, the very next time it boots i run into same problem.
I have changed RAM, unplugged mouse keyboard and everything else. and cannot seem to figure out what could cause such a problem
I found similar cases on google, most seem to get it fixed by unplugging mouse or something. i have tried and failed
I have tried a new cmos battery, i have unplugged everything, i have tried different RAM.
This problem started on the reboot after i tried changing the timings for my RAM, could this be why? RAM still works fine when i boot it with F2, and new RAM did not fix this problem.
any help?
Thanks in advance!!!
