Boot Up Problem

's Computer Specifications

I am running XP and when I attempt to turn on my computer I get a message
that ways Drive 0 not found:Serial ATA, SATA-0.

The second message is "No boot device avaialble- Strike F1 to retry boot, F2
for setup utility"

Any ideas what I should do?

John - select F2 - in setup verify that drive detection is set "auto" and
that drives are recognized.
