I got a really strange problem and I did not find any similar threads in this forum:
Sometimes my Windows Me System hangs showing a BSOD and at reboot, the bios does not detect the HDDs on the primary IDE channel. After entering BIOS and HDD auto detection, everything works fine.
My explanation for this is that the bios forgets about HDD settings while the computer is running, and this results in a bluescreen because windows does not find the swap file any more.
I think the Mainboard is an Epox 8KTA3 with VIA Chipset and a 1000MHz Athlon processor.
Maybe somebody has an idea of how to fix the problem.
I consider installing Win 2000 with NTFS, but as i think it is a hardware related problem, i do not believe it would solve the problem.
Thanks in advance
