Say your mobo is your spine, the bios would be your spinal cord. if its damaged or missing nothing works.

Give it a try, it wont hurt and may fix the problem. I have had bios's go crazy on me a few times.

Well for your sake im hoping its a botchy bios, atherwise my next guess is going to be hdd then mobo. Both are alot more expencive than a bios.

If it doesnt work try connecting the hdd to another machine and see if it does the same thing.
