What is BIOS Buffer Overun?

I was having touble getting this comptr to recognize the hard drive. A ran a Diagnostic check and the motherboard has that problem. At least 3 out of the 4 times I ran the check on the motherboard.

Reset the mobo bios back to "default". Set to "minimum" (or what rver they call it in bios setup). If you still get errors, bad bios chip on mobo?

Hey thanks micker. I set the Fail Safe Defaults, and then even reset the CMOS jumper.

Its been running great all day. Restarted numerous times and it recognizes the hard drive every time.
