why does win7pro boot to bios

Solution
Do you get any dialogue boxes?? it could be the CMOS battery has died, and the motherboard cannot hold the settings data any longer.

These batteries are not rechargeable, so do go flat over time - usually 5-10 years, depending on how long the PC is left switched off.
