|  BIOS f*cked up ? Since this morning I have problemps with my computer, it won,'t boot  . It can post, but after that, only the flat line blinking on my screen (it normaly should load the SATA bios then).I also can't acces the BIOS, again, the flat line blinking on the screen (first somewhere in the middle, than a bit lower and the on top) and my printer (Deskjet 670C parallel) start taking paper and spitting it out again  .I'm going to try to flash it later (afraid of doing a CMOS clear :S ). Ow, my specs: Abit NF7-s v2.0 AMD AthlonXP 2500+ 2*256Mb DDR400 Twinmos Sapphire R9600 PRO |

| Flashed my BIOS and now it's working. Still don't know what caused this  . MBM log, window log nor folding log shows anything weird (had set it to shut down automaticly @ 8am ). |
