I need to know how to modify my BIOS settings in Win98 SE on my desktop system<br />
<br />
I have tried using various F keys at startup with no success. &nbsp;I have also tried using the CTRL key.<br />
<br />
I have a MicroFlex Owner's Manual from MicroExpress but it doesn't say how to enter BIOS or change CMOS settings.<br />
<br />
My problem is that Norton GoBack prevents startup from proceeding. &nbsp;When I reboot, Norton tells me to press the spacebar to proceed with loading. When I do, I hear clicking noises from the tower. &nbsp;If I wait long enough, the screen goes blank except for this error message: &quot;Goback internal error. Failure code gb_genlog(xxx)&quot;<br />

I have saved NGBBoot to the computer I'm using now. &nbsp;I have no idea how to burn this file to a CD, but I'll save that question until I've learned how to change my boot settings on my Win98 machine.

Can't change CMOS settings on my Win98 SE desktop

Storage devices include any device used for storing and retrieving digital information. Hard disk drives (HDDs) use one or more rigid ("hard") rapidly rotating disks (platters) coated with magnetic material. Data is accessed in a random-access manner, meaning that individual blocks of data can be stored or retrieved in any order and not only sequentially. The primary competing technology for secondary storage is flash memory in the form of solid-state drives (SSDs), but HDDs remain the dominant medium for secondary storage due to advantages in price per bit and per-device recording capacity. CD-RW (Compact Disc-ReWritable) is a digital optical disc storage format that allows information to be stored outside the mechanical HDD.
