Help! My computer wont display anything after I updated bios.
I just recently acquired a HP Compaq presario sr2034nx computer with these specs: A8m2n-la motherboard, 2.4 Ghz amd processes, 1 gig of ram, geoforce 6150 Le onboard graphics card, and a windows xp operating system
After I ran the Hp recovery program to set it back to factory default, I proceeded to update the bios through windows with this update:http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/genericSoftwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=pv-56155-1&cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en
After the about 3 minutes, the bios update process gave a message requiring to restart the computer. After I restarted the computer, the monitor started to display fuzzy lines. Two minutes later, the fuzzy lines disappeared and the monitor went blank. Even though there was no display, it appeared that the computer booted up because the hard drive light kept flashing. Also when i clicked my mouse or keyboard, the hard drive light blinked( might be at the welcome screen?). When I shut down the computer by holding the power button, the green light on the power button starts flashing after the computer shuts down.
Did I corrupt my Bios? If so, is there a way to reset it?
Thanks!
