CPU Usage 100 percent after ram upgrade
Dell XPS M1210
Windows 7 ULTIMATE 32bit
Intel core 2 T7200 2.00Ghz
Upgraded memory from 2x1GB PC2 5300 667Mhz to 2x2GB PC2 6400 666 (800Mhz), and CPU usage hangs at 100 percent on boot with nothing in processes. Reinstalled windows twice with same problem.
I suspect I have to update my BIOS but cannot because battery does not take a charge.
My question is...is there a way to force the BIOS update without the battery?
