[Raymond House]

Hi folks, A friend had this happen to him so he said remove the battery and
reinstall it and VOILA! it all works ok.I guess it must have been stuck in
a situation where I could not get access to the BIOS, I'll leave that to
the experts.I hope this will help someone in the same situation. Thanks for
all your inputs.
