Hello,

I am writing to you hoping to find a solution for my Albatron,mainboard.


The model is the PX865PE7/PRO(Phoenix award bios). I bought it 10 months ago through an internet shop. My PC is a P4, 3.00GHZ, LGA775, PRESCOTT, 1.00GHZ SDRAM,WINDOWS 2000 PROFFESIONAL OS, WD40GB HD&WD36.7Raptor. The problem is the following. Whenever i am trying to make any change at all in the BIOS settings, it seems to be stalling (stack). The procedure is the following: I make the changes, I am pressing F10(save) and then I am getting a message in screen that says (SAVE TO CMOS AND EXIT? (Y/N?). I type either Y or N and nothing happens. Nor the enter key functions nor the Escape key. To be honest no key is function at all!. (The Save to ...... message continues to appear in the screen?)
I shut down the pc, manually, and then boot it and the changes that i have previously made in BIOS seem to be in effect! (I have even bought a new keyboard just in case...but the same problem again). By the way i've updated my bios to the latest version that i found in the manuf. site, but the same story again!

Could you please help me with this issue?.


Many thanks in advance

Are you using a USB keyboard? Make sure that you are not disabling USB kb support in the bios. If you have an old PS/2 kb, try using it instead.

To whoever it may concern..

I flashed my bios (for the second time) with the latest .bin. I rebooted and everything appears to be normal now. All the changes that i periodically make(e.x. hard disk boot priority, agp aperture size etc) are saved into the CMOS now.
I believe that i will never find out what has happened.
(Maybe a recoverable error by the mobo?.)

Thanks
