When i start the computer i always have the press F1 or DEL screen?

What should I do with this. shouldnt it be that it would automatically open directly to Windows XP screen as the usual thing? But everytime I start it, im stucked in that press F1 or DEL screen.|||I guess its ur CMOS battery is dead.





Replace the battery and try, should work ok.





Hope it helps u ...... !|||whenever f1 or del appears, it is basically there is a problem with your computer system...most probable reason is the cmos battery... it may be the right time to change it.. other reasons may be cables, floppy drives, etc..|||This happens when your CMOS battery is dead and your BIOS settings are lost.


When you hit F1 in the initial screen you are loading the default BIOS settings..


Replace your CMOS battery and things should be OK from the second time you start your system.|||go to your windows bios settings to disable that settting...
