Replace the batter in your bios so that you can change and set the right settings of date... You can see the battery in your mother board. </p> http://www.freecomputerrepair.com/repair-questions/topic/jumpers-1#post-596 Sun, 14 Feb 2010 04:12:23 +0000 Adam 596@http://www.freecomputerrepair.com/repair-questions/ <p>You have to check the jumper settings for your motherboard by checking the online manual from the manufacturers website. </p> http://www.freecomputerrepair.com/repair-questions/topic/buying-new-motherboard#post-463 Tue, 22 Dec 2009 19:52:13 +0000 jase9 463@http://www.freecomputerrepair.com/repair-questions/ <p>I am thinking of buying a new motherboard for my desktop.

He bought all the parts of it and assembled it. Now when we were buying memory cards, I noticed that there are codes like PC133 and PC166 on the description of the memory. What are they and is it always better to buy the highest value in the description? </p> http://www.freecomputerrepair.com/repair-questions/topic/overclocking-1#post-362 Sat, 19 Dec 2009 05:49:51 +0000 Adam 362@http://www.freecomputerrepair.com/repair-questions/ <p>Overclocking is quick easy to do, but doing it right without damaging any components take practice. The first step is to make sure your computer has quality hardware like a good power supply, motherboard, CPU heatsink and fan, and heat dissipation.</p> <p>Before you turbo charge your computer make sure to do your research and practice on a spare system so you don't damage your main computer. </p> http://www.freecomputerrepair.com/repair-questions/topic/need-scymatics#post-358 Fri, 18 Dec 2009 13:05:31 +0000 Allison 358@http://www.freecomputerrepair.com/repair-questions/ <p>I am looking for scymatics for a M925 Series p400 motherboard.
