Just got my Iwill kk266-R, set it up and everything worked perfectly, until I had to reset the CMOS. I jumpered pins 2-3 then set it back to 1-2. Turned on the computer and all I get is BIOS Rom Checksum error. Does anyone know what happened.

Try unplug the motherboard power connector and wait a while then plug it back in. Clear the cmos again and see if it will start.

Rev1.1 don't have any problem with the board, only some of the Rev1.2 KK266 does. Something else to try? I think the FSB jumper labeled ....quote]
I tried your suggestions, no luck. I talked to Iwill and they told me I should RMA the board. Not sure if I should do that or just get a new bios chip. Does anyone know how this could have happened. After I changed the fsb to 120, it didn't post. I turned the switch on the power supply off, cleared the CMOS, turned the switch back on and then this.
Thanks all for the help!

Tryed this. Left it unplugged for at about an hour, then plugged it back in and i still have the same problem. Another thing I didn' t mention earlier, After the Bios rom checksum error, it says
"Detecting drive A media...
Drive A error. System Hault"
or sometimes
"Detecting drive A media...
Invalid media. Insert system disk and press enter."
