I have a hp pavilion laptop and whenever it boots i get the message System Configuration Data updated
ERROR
System Configuration Data Read Error
F1 to Resume or F10 To goto setup
and when it attemps to start windows xp it just goes to the loading screen and freezes.
I have reset the default values in the Setup and attemped to reinstall new copy of windows but it also freezes when it starts windows.
i have no idea what to do, could it be the cmos battery?
