Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community - View Single Post - Lately, when I start my PC, I am prompted to hit "Delete" every time... Why?

Grondar · 02-13-2004, 04:53 AM

This started happening a little over a week ago.

Whenever I boot up my PC (OS, Windows ME) the "loading" screens shows and then the screen that shows white text on black, and has system, manufacturer, and other information.

At this screen, all loading stops, and I am prompted to hit the "Delete" key to continue.

Upon doing so the computer starts up properly and I am taken to Windows.

Does anyone know what is causing this "break" in my the start-up of my PC, and furthermore, is there a way to fix it?

It's a mild annoyance, but if possible I'd really like to get it back to the point where my PC/OS loaded without a hitch.

Any suggestions or solutions would be greatly appreciated, as this is one of the many parts of my PC I am clueless about.

Thank you.
