Change in bios and I cant boot now

  Date: Dec 13    Category: Unix / Linux / Ubuntu    Views: 351
  

I got my son a graphics card and maxed out his ram at 4gb for Christmas.
We wiped his hd clean and then went to duel boot xp and ubuntu.
Everything was great until we booted into the bios and he made a change:
VGA Memory > 64mb to 0mb. He thought since the card had 1gb of ram
that he could recover that 64mb. Well, when the computer starts, the
screen lights up with the manufacturer logo and then displays "no signal".

How can you recover from a bios mistake?

Either swap back out the other card to change it back, or pull the CMOS
battery to go with default settings.

You should still be able to go into the BIOS and change it back.

When you boot it must still run the post and show you which key to hit.

I never got to the point where I could get into bios. I didnt have a
video access to see that.

But I managed to get it by clearing cmos.
