Thread: Ubuntu Install has altered my bios!!!

-

is possible? have installed ubuntu studio on main studio computer intending run past pro hardware. has taken while set , still having problems drivers hardware happy work through these bit bit. main problem have have machine dual booting quite happily xp pro somehow bios has been altered , not sure how rectify settings have changed no longer options.

have had freezing in xp , uncharacteristic cpu overload spikes when running cubasesx3. diagnostics have shown appear overclocking ram cause of freezes. jumped bios check settings - not have overclocked choice - , guess - settings clock speeds, fsb etc have gone! not showing settings are. has happened since ubuntu installation despite re-flashing bios still have no access or info on systems fsb, cpu clock speed, video aperture etc, seems whole page has disappeared , bios slim set of options whereas before quite comprehensive. has ever come across before??
system info:

acer aspire 9424 1.8ghz dual core intel
2gb ram
nvidia 256mb video ram

pheonix bios 1.24 acer re flashed after ubuntu install try , bios settings before.

in advance answers always. ubuntu studio runs awesome on machine way, despite not seeing hardware yet , forward day can ditch windows altogether.

technically, possible change bios os. i've never heard of happening without software, not os should 'just do'. if did change settings, shouldnt have flashed bios. since missing options bios, , flashing bios doesnt them back, think bios must have been flashed, , whatever new version on machine doesnt have options used to. weird.

if running acer software in windows, check see if there bios flashing capability...its possible got update acer thats flashed bios.

other thing can think of try flash bios earlier version. might options then.
