Detecting IDE Drives

's Computer Specifications

Sometimes on bootup or restarting and on post boot it says Detecting IDE
Drives and will not go any further, but when I press the reset button it
boots up ok, what would be causing this to happen?

Thanks

Everything from a flat battery on motherboard to faulty hard or optical
drive.
