Disk boot failure insert system disk and press enter

[Corey0808]

First off my system specs are in my signature.

Here is the problem. I just got a new Dell 1704FPT LCD monitor and I went to set the monitor up. So I shut my PC down and commenced with unplugging the old CRT monitor and plugging in the new LCD monitor (into my DVI jack). I booted the system up and come to find out I didn't have any keyboard functionality. I then realized that I accidently unplugged the keyboard. So I shutdown again plugged the keyboard in and when I tried to boot up again it says

boot from cd...
Disk Boot Error, please insert system disk and press enter

well I took the cdrom that was in the drive out and pressed enter so it would boot from my Raptor. But when I press enter all it does is just says invalid system disk and reprompts me again. I went into the bios and changed the first boot device to HDD-0 and it still asks for a CDROM disk without skipping to booting off my Raptor. I've tried a different power cord for the Harddrive I've unplugged the SATA port and plugged it back in and it's still not working. I don't understand what the problem could be. I've even plugged the old monitor back in and it still is doing this. Other than adding a new monitor to the equation nothing has changed.

Am I experiencing a coincidental hardrive failure????

Any other ideas please help this is extremely frustrating.

Possible but unlikely..

Reset your CMOS and boot again..

No floppy in A:/ drive is there?

I'll try the CMOS reset and get back to you. I'm not at my machine right now and won't be for a couple of hours. I just have to make sure I write down a couple of settings 🙂

And there is no floppy in the floppy drive already checked 🙂
