Ok, so I just built my first PC last night. I got this message "Reboot and Select proper Boot device or Insert Boot Media in selected Boot device and press a key".
So, I figured I just needed an optical drive. So, I got my USB optical drive, put in Win7 Home Premium 64-bit, and the same thing happened. I went into the BIOS, and tried everything. I changed the USB cd/dvd to first boot priority, then changed it to the HDD (not a dead HDD because the PC recognizes it), had each of them 1 & 2, then I tried disabling everything else, and it still didn't work. I checked my SATA cables for the HDD, USB cables for the optical drive, and nothing worked. Can anyone help me with this? Keep in mind, the HDD is blank, Win7 has not been installed yet, this is the FIRST boot. Thanks, and I appreciate your input.
