Only thing I can think of right now, is to remove the CMOS battery.

On the motherboard there should be a flat battery somewhere (like in a digital watch but larger). Remove it, wait around 10 secs, and place it back. (or replace it altogether if you can find a spare).

This will reset the CMOS (the configurable part of the BIOS) and there is a slim chance that it causes the problem.
(note the word: slim. I can't think of other possibilities atm)
