Yeah, I know of the low-quality-capacitors-in-the-old-motherboards problem.
But would the bios setup run with no problems with capacitors on the
motherboard faulty? I'll look into it, but somehow I doubt that they are the
cause. It is some part of hardware that gets initialized only *after* the
bios, during boot. But then again, I can't be sure.
But anyway, thanks for the thought! :-)
