I've never seen anybody do this, but maybe there is a product already on the market or somethin... Anyhow, I've always been one to push the absolute limit of my computer settings and I finally got fed up with resetting bios via the jumper so perhaps you can already see where this is leading.
I went down to Advance Auto and bought a $3 Rocker switch and I hacked up a CD-ROM audio cable. And now I have a rocker switch that when flipped, it mimics the act of shorting the BIOS reset jumper... so instead of leaning over and opening the computer, then finding the stupid thing, all I have to do is power down, flip the switch, wait a few seconds then flip it again and power back up.
The only thing I wonder now... what would happen if I flipped this switch while I was in windows?
