BIOS reset switch

hrobinson57 · 30th Apr 2006, 01:56 PM

OK I know I did not imagine this, but a while back I remember an article in a computer mag about installing a BIOS reset switch on your keyboard. This would prove very handy for me as I'm always pushing things a bit too far. I can imagine theoretically how to do this, but I'd like to read an article from someone who did it. Thanks.

dude, i got no idea where that came from, but if you want easy way to reset:

just leave your jumper on normal,

solder two single core wires, to the pins you are suppose to jump to reset.

run the leads out side of your case, and solder a simple switch of your choice to them.

depending on your switch choice, mod it to fit your front 3.5inch panel, or cut your case to mount it or something. It's easy as flip to reset.

but i donno y you'd want to do that, it's a hell lotta work. me, i always leave case open or PC internals strewn over my desk when i'm going to b pushing things too far.
