Mercury P4VM800M7 Motherboard - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

Hi hari2tell2
You don't say which Operating System you use, so my answer will be presented in general, Windows terms. If yours is a non-Windows Operating System and my answer seems to be of some relevance to you, please consider applying the logic and principles involved here to your own Operating System and, if in doubt, please feel free to add a Comment or Clarification to this Question. You also don't say if you are using the on-board devices or separate, dedicated, internal or external Devices. Please include information about the type, model and specification of your computer, its Devices and its Operating System. Doing so helps us makes faster, more accurate and more assured Remote Diagnostics leading to better quality and more useful Advice, Answers, Guidelines , How-Tos and Solutions. This is probably a BIOS Settings or Driver or Device Settings problem. Try 2 things first: Make sure all the relevant Device functions in BIOS are 'Enabled' and then save those new BIOS Settings. To enter BIOS Setup, Press 'F2' or 'Del' during the first POST Screen at Start Up. Check the status of the Devices and their Drivers in Device Manager. Start > (My) Computer > (System Properties) View System Settings > Device Manager This will tell you if the Devices are installed and functioning properly and if their Drivers are installed properly. If a red 'x' or a yellow question or exclamation mark appears next to a Device, then there is probably a settings anomaly, fault, error or conflict with that Device and/or its Driver. Re-install the correct Drivers that relate to BOTH the device and your Operating System, then restart the computer. Install the Drivers either from the motherboard's Drivers and utilities CD or from here: http://www.mercury-pc.com/downloads_list.php?productid=644 Please note that this motherboard appears to support only Win 2000/Win XP/Win 2003 Server and possibly also some Linux Distros (Operating Systems). If your Operating System is not included in this list, then it is highly probable that no Drivers exist for that Operating System. If you are committed to both this Motherboard and an unsupported Operating System, then consider buying and installing either a basic 5.1 or 7.1, internal PCI Sound Card or an external USB Sound Card, an AGP Graphics Card, a PCI LAN/Ethernet/NIC Card, a PCI Wireless Network adapter Card that are all pre-confirmed as being compatible with your Operating System. All can be relatively inexpensive. See examples below. The term "Drivers" is meaningless without associating it with an Operating System and a specific item of Hardware. There is no such thing as just " Drivers". There are XP VGA Drivers, Vista Graphics Drivers, Windows 7 LAN Drivers, Mac OSX Tiger WLAN Drivers, Mac OSX Leopard Epson Sx100 Printer Drivers, Mac OSX Lion Webcam Drivers, Linux Red Hat MIDI Controller Drivers and Linux Ubuntu Media Player Drivers, etc. Although drivers seem to mainly be about hardware, they are actually primarily about software. The Driver does not physically control the Motherboard's Devices. The Operating System and (to a lesser extent) the BIOS do that. What the Driver does (just like a human interpreter for a guest who speaks a different language from his host), is to introduce the Device to the Operating System and help them to communicate with each other, with the Driver taking instructions from both and passing it back and forth between them. So when one mentions Drivers, one must also mention the Operating System it will be talking to. In order for that to be possible, the two must share a common language. If they do not, then the role of 'interpreter' is impossible, because, then neither the Driver nor the Device will be able to understand what the Operating System is saying and vice versa.I hope this helps.

Most BIOS versions included a language option

Get the computer manufacturer and your computer model number.

If it is available, go to the manufacturer site and look for BIOS & Firmware upgrades.

Most BIOS versions included a language option

When your PC is starting up, press the Setup key. This is usually Del, F2, or F12.

The key, however differs with each machine.

It should be stated on the screen for a very short time which key is the setup key

you can change the bios settings by using the ARROW KEYS select it press enter and exit then press the F10 key to save to cmos and restart

if your not sure or you have made any wrong bios changes you can set failsafe or optimised defaults

if you are unable to change the bios language settings the bios might need to be updated or bios chip might need to be changed or flashed

Before flashing the BIOS do a search on BIOS flash and read the caveats.

Backup your current BIOS and only flash if it is absolutely necessary!!

If the computer vendor is unknown or unavailable, try to identify the motherboard vendor and model number if you can, BIOS updates are specifically associated with motherboard versions:

you can change the language settings

click start control panel regional and language options select regional language options from the drop down list select the language you want also from the bottom drop up list you can select your present location location or another language

hope this helps
