i am receiving a message whenever i start my pc that says, checking
nvram..update failed. it does not give me a chance to at least hit on delete
to get to BIOS. all i have on the screen was, checking nvram..update failed
and below that is wait....
before this happened, the pc continously reboots or restarts itself. and the
last time i was able to see the windows screen to sign in, my 2 user
accounts is not appearing , i am not sure if it was deleted or what, but i
cannot sign in also using the username after hiiting on ctrl-alt-delete two
times.
i have read an article that says something about the battery needs to be
replaced. a already did that but somehow, i am still receiving the same error
status of nvram .update failed..
anyone who knows about this? i would really appreciate all the help and
feedbacks for this issue.
 
Try resetting the BIOS to it's defaults. You may have a jumper on the
motherboard to accomplish the reset or if you remove the battery for about
30 minutes this might work also.

There is not enough information unless one can get to see all of the
messages during the bootup, starting from POST through to starting the
OS. It would appear that the computer startup is in "quickboot" mode.
Find a way to get into bios setup and shift from quickboot to "normal"
boot that includes POST and all of the messages that follow. NVRAM
failure can also mean a failed or undetected keyboard, mouse, bad RAM,
bad HD, etc.
