I recently reassembled my computer into a different case, taking notes of exactly how everything was connected.
After putting everything back together i got the error during POST that the CMOS time was not set and that I needed to run setup, in doing so I got "Enter Current Password" screen, there was never a password to enter the BIOS before and have never enabled that function in the past.
After the time not set error it gave the option to press F1 to resume, on doing so windows XP would start to load then just before the login screen the computer reboots. I am going round in circles, can somebody please help or let me know what has happened. Many thanks.
