ok... this is really pissing me off. i was on my comp and i decided to unplug my logitech z640 speakers from the back of my comp bc i wanted to plug in my headset (you cant plug in a headset on the z640, bc there isnt an port for the mic... so u have to unplug EVERYTHING)... anyway the comp then FROZE... so i restarted the comp and it would be about half way through loading the win2k load screen and then it would freeze.... it keeps doing this. i tried it with the speakers plugged in... out.... off.... on.... but it keeps freezing.... WTF IS GOING ON. i need to use my comp please help. thanks.

there is a jumper for the cmos.
it should be in your manual.
do this with the computer turned off, unplugged
its going to reset all your bios settings, if you dont know how to get your bios setup right, i wouldnt recommend doing it yet.
