Strange Computer Issue Solved by young boy on U-Tube

‎09-16-2015 07:52 AM

Early this morning I had this weird thing on my screen that sent me into a panic. Only 3 things on the screen: CMOS checksum error - Press F2 to run setup - Press F1 to load default values and continue. I was clueless so I did a bunch of googling on my I-Pad coming up with all sorts of complicated and confusing reasons for it and complicated things to do for this problem, confusing because I have such limited knowledge of computers.. As a last resort I clicked on a U-Tube Video claiming to show what to do. I was surprised to see a young boy, to me he looked about 12 years old. So I brought the I-Pad to the computer and I followed his directions step by step as he showed how to do it on his own computer screen. I had to run the video a few times because I didn't have the cursor to use and I finally figured out I had to use the up & down keys to move around but in the end VOILA!!

God Bless these young kids is all I have to say. It's fine now, just hope it stays that way.
