Bios shutdown Hi, I downloaded the bios update for the nc6120 direct from the hp website, ran the update and i got the blue screen of death. it is a stop screen apparently that says try to disable to bios shadowing or cacheing?? i can get no further than that i'm afraid. have i killed it or is there life after Mike? Hope you can help, Mike

I'm wondering if you entered setup when you start the computer, you can do as the screen suggests--disable bios shadowing or cacheing?

I can't remember right offhand what the key is you press to enter setup, but when you start the computer, it should prompt you.
Whenever I can't remember, I just start hitting keys at startup. The ones I go for are F2, F12, and Del. If those don't work, I just sort of hit all the F keys. But I don't let my clients see me do it! It's a trade secret.

Mike:   Look in your manual to see how to get to the BIOS setup screen. Find the BIOS shadowing or catching and shut it off.    If you need a manual download it. If you cannot get it going again, doing that . Try using the reload CD's. If you don't have one ,again look in the book and see if it is on the hard drive or wher.e If you need additional help, just ask.
