530 BIOS 1.0.13 halts frequently on startup
I have just taken a Dell Inspiron 530 out of the box and connected the Dell USB mouse and keyboard, as well as the VGA monitor (and power cable). When I hit the power switch, the Dell often halts showing the BIOS splash screen. Some times I've gotten past that, but most times it halts there.
I see BIOS 1.0.15 has been released -- is this a fix? Or should I return the PC to Walmart and get another?
Regards,
Paul
