I recently built a new computer but everytime I turn it on, it searches for boot information, but it never finds any.  I made a system disk and put it in the floppy, but it doesn't detect it for some reason.  Everthing is working properly, the dvd is on, the floppy is on, the hard drive is working, so i'm not sure what the problem is.  Also, before it searches for the boot info, it says "detecting"[then a little time passes] and then it says that my bios is not installed becasue there are no devices attached to it.  I'm not sure what that means and if that is part of the problem.Get more from the Web.  FREE MSN Explorer download : http://explorer.msn.com
