Is there somoe way of forcing my settings to stay in the BIOS It's driving my OS crazy! GrimBo 09-05-2001, 10:39 AM I don't think the bios is going to report wrong setting... at least I haven't come across any that did. If you set it to "auto" it will detect the effective setting. The settings are typically written in the, if you will, "HD bios". The HD send the information to the bios of your board. MaxVal 09-05-2001, 10:57 AM Not sure why your CMOS won't hold your user settings, but... You are not alone. I had an old Maxtor 1.7Gb disk that would display bad sectors in a pattern. On a hunch I decided to enter the parameters manually. No more bad sectors! I used the disk until I gave it away with no other problems! MAX SysOpt.com
