    CMOS/GPNV CHECKSUM BAD ERROR

     
    Hi All!

    Just recently registered, I hope this is the right forum. Thanks for the help on my grounding issue earlier in the week-problem solved.

    Occaisionally, on boot-up I get the error "CMOS/GPNV CHECKSUM BAD ERROR" and my system will not start. I am not sure what the error means and the system seems to run fine otherwise.

    Any Ideas??

    System specs :

    Homebuilt-
    P IV 3.0 Canterwood @ 3.12
    Intel D875PBZ mobo
    1GB Corsair XMS (PC 3200 LL)
    ATI RADEON 9800 PRO
    160 GB Maxtor HDD
    Soundblaster Audigy 2 Soundcard
    Samsung DVD/RW Combo


    Thanks!

    Usually a CMOS checksum error indicates a problem with the BIOS.
