Glad you're sorted- I mess about overclocking my pc and if I put a setting too far often get blue screens -they are never fatal "bsod"- and sometimes I have to re-set the cmos or my pc behaves like yours -first time I thought I'd killed it!
I haven't had a problem yet with touching the battery and the shorting pins aren't always that near to the battery. If I'd told you to stick a screwdriver between two bits on your motherboard I don't think you would have , but this is quickest for me!0 -
There you go, harmles, no extra cost involved & pc working again, glad to help.You can't be lost if you don't know where you're going.0
