One of my friends got this problem.
His Motherboard has been 'burned out'. since he had warranty for the mother board he got a new one from the shop where he bought the computer.
When they tested the new mother board in the shop, it worked fine.
But when he got home and power up the computer he gets an "CMOS Checksum Error - Defaults Loaded" error (after the detection of the IDE and SATA drives). and then the booting stops there.

Usually this error comes when your motherboard battery is faulty. But it cant be in this case because it's a new motherboard.

So, what is the cause of this error and what is the solution?

    its da battery :yes: battery must be worn out during the shipment period ;)
    for now, just hit F4 or del or F1 and access BIOS and set the date time n save settings and exit .. your computer will be restarted and booted without any problems :yes: (but you will need to do this again after when you turn on after powering off till u buy a new battry!)
