Help - Booting Windows XP - How do you bypass F1 continue command

[Guest]

I just successfully upgraded my hard drive from a 10G to a 100G. (almost) Now
when I start my computer it asks me for the F1 command to continue. How do I
bypass this command so it will automatically go into windows?

Go through all your BIOS settings carefully - also make sure you don't need
to upgrade your system BIOS to a new version. If it had a 10GB drive in
it - that must be an OLD PC...

You get the F1 response because there is a problem with the BIOS setup.
You need to check your BIOS settings carefully.
Check the date the BIOS starts out with, you could be having a dead CMOS battery too.
By the way, if the PC came with a 10G harddrive I would expect it is a relatively old computer and
you may need a BIOS update.
