Hello. I have a little problem back over here. I just finished my first build and from what i've read the first time you turn your computer on the bios or post or whatever screen pops up. All i have here is just a black screen saying "reboot and select proper boot device or insert boot media in selected boot device and press a key". Any suggestions? Where could be this problem? Any help highly appreciated.

"1.Computer off, and unplugged from the surge protector. Press the Power On button, and hold it in. Hold it in for a count of FIVE seconds. (FIVE. You can go a few more. Count, 1001,..1002,..1003,..1004,..1005)
Let go of the Power On button. DO THIS TWO more times.
Plug the computer back into the surge protector. WAIT Two minutes. Turn the computer on.
What you are trying to do here, is clear the CMOS error codes, and reset your BIOS Setup options back to the factory default settings.
2.Go into BIOS Setup, and see if your harddrive is recognized. IF not, set it to -> Auto Detect. Restart your computer, and see if it will boot up.
http://www.fluteloop.com/PCHC/bios The above gives you an idea of what you will see when looking at your BIOS Setup. (Older computers called it -> CMOS Setup)
3.OR, if you feel you don't want or can't do this, and have the Full Installation disk for your computers Operating System, (Windows XP is an example of an O/S), OR you have the Restoration Disk, just pop it in your optical drive, (CD/DVD drive), and away you go!
You still, May have to set CDROM, as the first boot device in Boot Order, in your BIOS Setup.

When you first turn on your computer, it will post and say if you are using an ASUS motherboard, then the ASUS splash screen will come up to give your options to go tp the BiOS or whatever. Usually you will do this outside of the case and with only a stick of Memory plugged in and Graphics card ( of course the CPU and it's cooling ). If it POSTs and gets to the screen, then thngs are fine and you can then install it in your case ( make sure you have your standoffs in place first). If you are getting that message, you got through post and is trying to boot, but cannot find the OS.
