If I press -c (enter), the instant I press enter, my system reboots. I can type anything I want, but the instant I hit that "enter" key, my computer reboots. I saw in the archives that adjusting the BIOS cache can help, but when I did this, I got the same result. Any ideas/comments/suggestions? Thanks in advance, Matt zito
