Hello Ted,

The BIOS rom checksum error means that ur BIOS is probably screwed up, go on the website of your mainboardīs manufacturer and make a BIOS Update.

Try to put out the battery on your mainboard for a few minutes and try it again.

Otherwise u can try to create a floppy disk, but only if the floppy works, and put a new bios on the disk.

Wish you good luck nd donīt hesitate to post back ;)

cheers
