I was just working on my homework on my computer and suddenly my computer screen turned black and I got a "BIOS Checksum Error." My computer kept beeping and I just hit the power button to reboot my PC. After that, my computer booted fine. This is the first time I ever seen a "bios checksum error".
At that time, a faulty DVD drive (IDE) was still connected to my computer and I immediately took it out and replaced it with another DVD burner, thinking that the DVD drive might be the reason why i got the bios checksum error.
I just want to know what the bios checksum error was about because I have no idea if the faulty DVD drive might of been the culprit of the checksum error. I googled my problem and I can't find anything because it seems like most bios checksum errors are related to problems with flashing BIOS (which i never did for months).
