Hi I'am limited to what i can tell you as iIhave no idea what make or model of computer you using generally you get into the bios navigate to the exit screen and then navigate to the option to reset to default,if you cant see it then do not try look at running a repair from your install disc and see if that helps alternately ou could run sfc /scannow from command prompt http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/66...c-command.html
