Hi, Most likely your bios is trying to boot to a cd first. You may want to try entering the bios and changing your boot configuration so that it looks to the hard drive to boot first instead of your cd/dvd rom drive. Thank you, Lee
If you look closely at the bios screen it should identify which key will load the bios. This differs from bios to bios. This is why i never recommend these smaller computer manufacturers that offer little to no support. You can try the ESC key as well that is another possible key to enter the bios. Hopefully this helps. If not you may want to consider purchasing a computer that is reputable. Or even possibly a barebones system. Then you could transfer some parts out of your current computer. There are a lot of options available to you. They may just not have been your ideal solution. Thank you, Lee

For that when you power up the computer press F1 or F2 or "del" key to enter in bios. Then make sure your harddrive is recognized in bios. If it is not recognized then open cpu cabinet. Then reattach both connection to harddrive. But if your harddrive is recognized and you can not get windows then you need recovery disk or windows disk. Then boot your computer with that disk and follow the procedure then choose R for "Repair previous windows" Then it repairs windows. Let me know if you need further assistance. Thanks for using FixYa.
