Just stated a computer up for the first time in over 1 year. Never had any problems since I had it built. It comes up with an American mega trends screen with things like ami bios random listed usb drives (there's only a keyboard plugged in) and has Sata port 2 detected (I have 2 seperate 2tb drives) but nothing else under the sta devices section. It says enter setup to recover bios setting and press f1 To run setup

Please help!!!!!!
 
Solution
The onboard battery has probably died. It lost all the configuration info. Go ahead and press F1. You may have to do that every time until you get a new battery for the motherboard.
