Hi, hopefully this is the right place to post this, if not, i apologize
Have a microstar computer Model: PC MT5 typ: MED MT 165
-------------
BIOS ROM checksum error
Detecting floppy drive A media...
INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER
-------------
recived this error on startup, but after a coupla minutes then a reboot it went away, i pestered parents to look into problem, but apparently not important. Now its doing it every startup, and have no clue what to do.
I tried disconnecting the A drive, and then it just gave me an "A drive is missing" error on a similar screen
googling tells me something about a battery, but i dont know where to get one or what type.
Hope someone can help
Tom
p.s. not very knowledgeable about hardware problems, so if i have missed a vital bit of info please shout, (if you can dumb it down as much as possible!!)
