I am not sure it's possible to skip that. I don't know of any setting that will allow you to skip it. Maybe fast POST?
 
All thw websites I checked said that it's something to do with my Harddrive, but I know this isnt the case. Is there ANY possible way I can do it?
 
I heard somewhere that clearing your cmos (taking the battery out) fixes the problem...but im not sure

its worth a try :)
 
i cleared the cmos by unplugging the pc and pressing the power button 6 times... now its stuck on DMI and I cant reclear.

Can't you clear CMOS by using the jumper? That would let you reclear... unless this is a laptop :confused:
 
no, its desktop, and i cant open the case... i still got 1 and a half year warranty on it :)
 
i found this:

ssue:

Computer stops at verifying dmi pool data...

Cause:

This issue can be caused by any of the below reasons.

1. Corrupt boot files on the computer.
2. Settings for hard disk drive are not correct.
3. Floppy diskette or CD in computer causing issue.
4. Boot devices not set properly.
5. BIOS corrupt or misc. setting not set properly.
6. Connections loose or disconnected.
7. Bad Hard disk drive or other bad hardware.

if its your hard drive you should be able to put another hdd into that machine and boot without any problems

if you put another hdd in and it doesnt boot its the bios (corrupt/screwed up)
 
i dont have any other sata hdd's... and please, read regarding the warranty :)
 
that i still got 1 and a half year warranty on it, so i cant open the case, or im screwed if something does go wrong.
 
Yeah, its got 2 years warranty, I can upgrade it, but I dont want to void warranty yet, and it's an Acer Aspire T180 computer. Specs are Athlon 64 X2 +3800, 1GB RAM, nForce 4 chipset with GeForce 6100 SMA Graphics. According to the BIOS, Acer made the mobo as well.
 
no, theyll erase my bios and software. I want to keep what I have now.
 
stop being such a "omg omg omg" type person...honestly did u pay extra for the warrenty?? sorry if i sound rude in anyway...in ur case, ur gunna have to open case, and and fix ur hardware problem :) whether u void ur warrenty or not, its gunna happen anyways..im guessing ur not computer savey?? correct??
 
hell yeah, im comp savvy, its just that my dad would kill me if i opened my case up before the 2 years are up. and the warranty came with the computer.
 
i recon try the hard drive in someone elses rig...
is there any way the manufacturer can tell youve opened the case? (eg pop rivets, no screws for opening, or some sort of tamper label?)

ahh soo u would open the case but its dad thats preventing u from doing it lol

gotta love cautious parents lol...
 
im telling the average joe that know will be computer illiterate, im sorry im laughing so hard right now...just proves my point the media sadly does its corruption on computer illiterates lol

just cause u have high speed internet does NOT mean ur gunna get the virus faster..thats bull

u just gotta love them cautious people lol (sarcastically speaking) i can go on a rant but i dont wanna be a post jiggalo lol
 
keeping progs

due to not being able to open case on puter an external drive such as usb might be the ticket for saving data so you could take it back under warranty
 
*rolls off chair at this thread*

This is an enthusiast forum ya'know if you cant even open the case and you want help, then keep dreaming. If acer is that shit, DONT BUY FROM THEM.

Seriously, the average joe's are so screwed in the head.

Like Dell ads...

"Powerful Gaming PC"

with only 1GB of Crappy Valueram and a shitty 7300LE 128MB... :laugh:
for 1.999k AUD, like LOL. I could build it for less than 1k AUD (main cause, crap mobo, crap PSU, crap GPU)

You cant even run oblivion on it!
 
thanks for the feedback on my suggestion but i have my own troubles. ive aquired a western digital 250gb hdd from a dvr system managed to format and get bios to recognize it as such but system will not get past dmi verrification while atached (1. will it take longer due to lrg hdd as slave) (2. not sure if system has the power to comply)
ive got: amd athlon(tm)xp 2200+ 1.80 ghz processor 504mb of ram (according to properties on my puter.
