[Gllug] Bios issue

[Dylan]

Hi All,

A friend of mine has a machine (running Windows, unfortunately) which is 
showing a BIOS fault. Fairly regularly, some of the BIOS settings get 
returned to default. The machine is only 2 months old, so I doubt the battery 
is flat, and in any case it can survive a period disconnected from the mains 
and the effect happens over worm reboots as well as cold. I've checked that 
the BIOS reset jumper is in the correct position (he won't yet let me clear 
the BIOS.)

It's a Foxconn A6VMX series bought as 'bare bones' from Novatech. Does anyone 
know of any issues with these boards? Would a BIOS upgrade be advisable 
(getting him to agree to that might be difficult!)

Cheers
Dylan
