Reply: (edit)Check your Motherboard/PC Manual manual, if you can. There should be a jumper on the motherboard which will reset the BIOS to its original factory condition.

Reply: (edit)I have been there with a 755CD. Unfortunately, you have someone quakified to take your t-pad apart and change a chip, or something. Worst case, you have to take it to IBM for this, at the highest cost. Good
luck
