So I wake up this morning and this is what I see on computer, its a a Dell Dimension 4700:

Phoenix ROM BIOS PLUS Version 1.10 A88
Copyright 1985-1988 Phoenix technologies Ltd.
Copyright 1998-2004 Dell Inc.
All Rights Reserved

Dell System Dimension 4700 Series
BIOS version A88
www.dell.com

Drive 1 not found: serial ATA, SATA-2
Drive 2 not found: Parallel ATA, PATA-8 (PRI IDE Master)
Drive 3 not found: Parallel ATA, PATA-1 (PRI IDE Slave)
Strike the F1 key to continue, F2 to run the setup utility

-

What do I do to get this to go away cause when I press the F1 key it goes straight to reboot the system and it starts well with no error msgs. what do I need to do to fix this opportunity...I already restored it to factory settings...Please help....Thanks Nestor

A88? That's strange if that's what it says, you should re-flash your BIOS with version A10 which is the last version from Dell.
