BIOS caused problems

[Karl Larsen]

         When I found my laptop did work fine with 10.04 while my main 
computer still refused to work, lead me to suspect the mother board had 
a fault. So I did the easiest thing which was check the BIOS for some 
error.

         All I did was turn on some functions that were off. Reboot and 
the main computer is working perfect with 10.04. Alas I really did not 
remember what I did with the BIOS, and that is bad. So went back into 
BIOS and selected the "automatic optimum setup". Booted back up and 
10.04 is still working fine. So I can reset it if needed in 6 months.

         I think some of the other problems reported might also be a 
BIOS problem so I suggest to everyone having a problem, please check 
your BIOS settings and use the "automatic optimum setup".
