BIOS reset --- HELP
I have a Dell OptiPlex 330. I upgrade the BIOS from A00 to A07 and now my PCI express slot isn't working properly.
I've read that most motherboards have a BIOS reset option---either changing pins on the board or unplugging the battery, etc etc.
Does anyone now how to reset BIOS back to A00 on an OptiPlex 330 board?
Any idea where I can find out?
I check the motherboard book (ftp://ftp.pppl.gov/pub/gtchilin/SystemImager/Documents/Resources/Opti330Man.pdf) and came up blank.
Many thanks,
TT

OK ... I'm back to square one. The CMOS reset didn't reset my BIOS. I pulled the pins and everything ... Any help is greatly appreciated .... :emotion-10:
