I said 250 was low to me (sarcastically of course), so he upped it to 500.
I don't keep count though, one day I will, see if I can shock myself.
@Hill, chu wanted today to have lots and lots of spamming, he PM'ed us all. Filling our inboxes.
Like the additon to your sig. I hope everyone remembers I found this Bunny-related item as well.

I think I really struck gold with that comic. Completely accidentally.
Cya slade.
Now the place has truly gone dead, I'll be leaving too.
Goodnight, anyone who reads this.

Well, it's quiet again...
As advance warning to the regulars around here, I've been having computer problems (in addition to the broadband), that being the BIOS (to those who know of it). It's the first thing that loads on a computer, without that working, nothing will.
Fortunately turning the computer completely off and on again fixed it this time. I'm not sure if that's going to last though. It may mean a replacement PC has to be bought.
In any case, that may cause problems for my spamming.
So I thought people might want to know.

Ooo that's not good Rav, I know a bit about computers, so what is it that is wrong about the Bios?

Well, I turned on the computer, immediately I got this error:
Error
BootBlock Emergency Recovery Mode
The System Flash ROM Image has been corrupted
Please insert a ROMPaq diskette into A: and cycle the power on your system. A ROMPaq diskette may be obtained from
http://www.compaq.com
So I couldn't really do that much, turned the computer off and on again (though the power light for the PC stayed on), consulted some expert (who hadn't seen a problem like that before) and eventually I turned the power off and on again at the wall.
That seems to have fixed it for now.
I downloaded the stuff for the ROMPaq disk and I'll eventually upgrade the BIOS so the disk will hopefully work.

I've never heard of it either, it seems quite strange, but if a certain piece of software is corrupted, which it seems it is, then installing that software should fix it.
I say should because I don't understand it that well, but I hope it works out for the best.
And also, although I doubt you have, have you made any changes to the bios?
Oh, and also, did you happen to have a disk or something similar in at the time, one which is not normally in?
Posted: Sat Dec 03, 2005 7:27 am
by Ravager
Nope, I didn't do anything special, nothing different from normal.
I have no idea whether it will happen again, it might do or maybe I'll be lucky. But at least I have one of these ROMPaq disks now, that could help.
And if it does completely fail, I guess it's time for a new computer. At least I won't be paying for it.

Well I'm not sure how similar it is to a 'bootdisk'.
When windows would stuff up, it would ask that a bootdisk would be used, as that was a way of being able to help fix the problem. Perhaps this disk is a way to help fix bios.
And did you have a disk in at the time, because that can trigger it.
