hello frnz when I strt my PC an error is displayed which states as::
CMOS checksum error.....
CPU ratio failed check ur BIOS setup and save before exit
-------------------------------------
i changed d CMOS cell also put d processor back in its position after cleaning sink etc....
but d problem is still not solved also am not able to get into BIOS...when try to do so PC hangs..
Plz mention config, and check if u put the PROCC back properly at all
Hmmm... "CMOS checksum error" occurs when motherboard CMOS battery is weak... You may need to replace it!

If CMOS battery replacement not work. Try to update ur bios firmware
bt am unable to get into BIOS setup!!!
u don't need to enter into bios setup. just run the os and download the updated bios .
There will be a readme how to do a firmware bios update follow it
