In Reply to: RE: CMOS Checksum error when trying to access BIOS posted by Julien43 on July 27, 2010 at 19:36:35
I could tell that it reset because the LEDs on the board light for a couple of seconds. The machine still wont post. It tares the "Delete" command to go to the BIOS, any key press after that brings up a blank screen with a cursor. The keyboard is useless after that.
Do I need a RMA?

I found, when I was having the problem due to the IDE/AHCI confusion that after resetting the BIOS (I,too, removed the battery when nothing else seemed to work) and when I started it up I got the BIOS reset screen, not the one you get when you hit DELETE.
This screen came up before I even had a chance to ask for the main screen. It then asked me if I wanted to go to "last good setting" or something like that or "default" which is what I asked for.
Try it again and see if you get this.
Go ahead and ask for an RMA since they only give you so much time to do so. I had asked for one when I was having trouble but never sent it back since it started working.
Try it again, first, before sending it back.

when you reset the BIOS?
I just wanted to be sure. Is that what the power cord mention is about?
I'm going back and forth with Gigabyte TechSupport trying to figure out what is going on.

before you can't.
That does sound strange!
Sorry you are having so much trouble.
On the previous board, I went through THREE before getting one that worked so, I know, it does happen.
Bye,

Hope the new one works for you.
