My challenger for today:
CMOS: Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor
ANTH 1 - CMOS MEMORY 0
TRIPLE WHISTLE OF THE REFEREE!
THE GAME IS OVER!
SUMMARY:
Starting whistle
Someone gives me a laptop, an Acer TravelMate 201T
because he wanted to return from XP to Windows 98 for personal reasons. Just he brings to home the laptop, he scared of my love ahahah
So, I noted that when I turned on the laptop, a screen with the following:
Press F1 to continue
Press F1 to continue
Press F2 to run the setup
I thought that was a simple problem that finished when I format disk. However I formatted the disk and installed Windows 98, and finally I downloaded drivers and utilities for this laptop. I restarted the system and at restart same screen as before but I noted a note:
CMOS BATTERY BAD
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! So I have to disassemble ALL!
First thing: Keep Calm!
So Look as Clint Eastwood to intimidate the laptop
I disassembled all and I knew that the issue was the battery
I had to change it. However to find a new battery I did somersaults. Finally this morning I found this battery, I changed it and assembled the laptop.
I turned on the laptop. Again same screen as before only that now says:
CMOS CHECKSUM ERROR
DAAAAAAAAAAAAMN!
But simple. I had to only put hands on BIOS.
Done all this, I restarted et voilà! The Laptop is PERFECT!
GAME OVER
